Let me begin by updating u peeps abt wat hve been going with my life for the past few days. On Thurs, nothing much happened, went to work & stuff. Worked back-2-back again, which meant tht on Fri i had to wake up real early, since i was on night shift the day before. Was quite a busy day, esp during lunch time. Had many food orders instd of drink orders. Luckily my outlet manager was able to come & help us out, though "he" was having an important meeting with the big bosses. Oh yah, forgot to tell u peeps tht there was a shortage of manpower on Fri, since it was the release of the 'O' Lvl results. Had 3 staff members who were waiting for their results. Was supposed to work frm 7am to 6pm initially due to the lack of manpower, but i requested to work till 3pm instd cauz i was having advance theory at night & i wasn't prepared at all, mind u. Made quite a few mistakes, which the naggy operational manager noticed & kind of reprimanded me. To hell wth him man, only knws how to make trouble for us instd of helping us. Irritating. Anyway worked till i was really in a daze, since i committed quite a few mistakes & got ticked off by both my outlet & operational managers, which definitely discouraged me alot. How useless am i man....Bad omens as i wat i view them as. Jiayi dropped by to look for me, which made me feel so happy. Was abt to leave as well, so asked him to join me for lunch, which we ate BK at Cine. Chit chatted & left abt 1hr later as i still have a test to "study" for. Anyway, thanks alot Jiayi & sorry for not being able to accompany u.
Advance theory really sux for me man. Didn't think it was easy as wat most of u peeps said. Mayb i wasn't prepared tht's way. Think i'm gonna fail, was the second last guy to leave the place, how hopeless am i? Went to meet Zongyao & Gavin for dinner, which we ate Sakae Sushi. Was planning to shop for new T-shirts in town with Zongyao initially, but had to cancel tht since Gavin decided to join us & suggested havin dinner at Bugis's Sakae. Though i didnt get to buy any clothes, did manage to buy Avril's CD, which i think was really very nice.Went home after dinner cauz we cldn't find anything to do & i had to work real early the next day.
Saturday was the longest day i've worked so far in my entire life. I was supposed to work frm 10am to 12am, instd of the original 3pm to 12am schedule. Received the news the night b4 & gladly accepted it. Guess u peeps must be thinkin tht i'm mad or something. It was a horrible day for me. The morning crowd was still manageable, since they didnt come at one go. They came at intervals, which made things much more easier for us. Us implying only 3 crew members, wth no manager around. Tht was y i had to come in early by the way, cauz my outlet manager had to attend a meeting at HQ. It was quite fun working w/o any managers cauz it gives us less stress. Anyway it wasn't as busy up till night time. Oh yah, forgot to mention tht Jessica, a classmate of mine, happened to drop by my cafe. Chit chatted & stuff and she asked me abt my job, since she's was so sick for her own. She was very interested in my job after explaining wat's the working environment, the pay & stuff. Guess she jus wanted a change in environment. Even got her to go for an interview later in the day. Dunno whether i did the right thing by introducing her to his job. I didnt really recommend it, honestly speaking. Told her all the bad stuff, but she was still quite interested. Hehe, hopefully i dont get her into trouble, otherwise she'll blame me & said i lie to her.
Oh here comes the most busy part for the day. After Jessica left, Jiayi & 10 of his classmates popped by to hve a drink. Initially it was still ok since there wasn't anybody ard, but then the crowd started to come in as well. 4 came in, then another 6, then another 6 more, & another 3 more started to come to cafe. I was in shock & worried tht we weren't able to cope wth the crowd. The whole bar station was like in a mess cauz we had no time to clean up, due to the flood of people ordering drinks. Luckily i had the assistant manager to help me, otherwise i wld be dead man. Actually i didnt really do alot, most of the oders were done by the assistant manager. I jus took orders afterwhich i tried my best to help "him". Feeling really useless for not being able to help "him", but i was pissed as well with my other colleague, who was practically doing nothing at all. Screw him. In addition, the crowd came during the time when we were abt to clean up the cafe or shld i say when we were abt to do the closing of the cafe. This badly affected the closing of our cafe. In the end, we left at abt a few minutes after midnight, with many things which we didnt do. Oh yah had to thank the assistant manager, since "he" charged the drinks ordered by Jessica & Jiayi as tht of a regular size drink, when they received a large one instd.
And finally, i'm able to sit down & update my blog. I'm really really exhausted right now. Still need to wake up early since Wee Hwa is coming over to watch 10 epsiodes of the show i had recorded for him while he was in camp. My leg r really tired esp my right one & suffering frm a soar middle finger while closing the cafe. Think i shall end here cauz it's too long liaoz. Guess u peeps must be thinking tht i've written an essay man. Sorry to bore u peeps as well. Shall head to bed liaoz really cannot tahan anymore. I still got one more 14hr shift on Mon to tahan man. SiGnZzZzZzzzz......
