my bloggie is being abandoned by its mistress for like..one month?
haha.
so sorry about that. couldnt help.
i have been busy working and earning money in the previous month.
and now i just quit my job. waiting for my salary.
that will be the first pay i have ever gotten by myself! i think ill feel triumphant and be proud of myself lol~ hopefully the pay will be decent!
it's not easy to pull through that month though.
too much to tell but i couldnt seem to arrange or sort them out properly.
no pain no gain.
this is so true.
i miss schooling when i start working. i miss studying. i miss all my friends.
but i treat this as an experience. a valuable one.
i was working as a waitress at a japanese restaurant near my house.
that was my first ever job.
i have learnt how to serve customers, make drinks, take orders, and memorise all the names of the dishes, and etc etc etc.
my colleagues are all quite nice ppl. but most of them are foreign workers, except me, my supervisior, and one of the chefs.
they come from various countries, eg myanmar, vietnam, nepal.
we communicate in very very "broken" english (i think ill have to start conversing in proper english haha) cos they can only understand certain simple english terms.
and to my surprise, i have a young 19 year old lady as my supervisor!
i think she's kinda mysterious, she has a big temper i can tell, and i think i just dont know her well.
sometimes i think we are in good term, but sometimes some of her actions and words go against it.
she likes to make fun of me, (i dont know if it's on purpose or not) at the same time talking to me like she's some great goddess from way above heaven, sometimes i just loathe the way she talked to me. but on the other hand i cant deny that sometimes she's being kind to me, like asking the chef to do me a glass of lemon drink and cocunut drink when i fell ill few days before i quit.
while with my colleagues, ill admit they treat me quite well though we dont know each other very well. most of them have been working there for a few years.
i doubt it when i first went there, cos i was ordered to do all sorts of cleaning jobs, however, as time goes by, those daily cleaning chores become something as normal as brushing teeth in the morning to me. haha. probably thats how i managed to survive and get used to it.
to me, i think im always that one who is working soundlessly and a do-what-she-is-told that type of person.
i dont go around communicating and interacting. i will just do my part and keep quiet.
this is not how i always portray myself as.
i thought ill be one who is cheerful and outgoing and kind of an extrovert.
or probably thats because of my working environment, i couldnt seem to find a colleague who can click with me like sisters.
i think that will be one of my regrets when i recall those working days.
i thought ill be missing them a whole lot, but the truth doesnt prove it, maybe it'll just become one part of my memory which lies in the deepest.
probably thats because they are delaying my pay day again and again!
i tried to be nice with them, but if they insist on treating me that way, i think i might explode one day!
though i never would want that to happen.we are anyhow one big family isnt it?
apart from tiredness, i think i have learnt quite alot which i would never know if i didnt work. i got to observe ppl from all walks of life.
and i think ppl in jb are somehow rich! they could afford few times of patronising the japanese restaurant that i was working at in just one week!=S
cos i saw familiar faces very often. lol.
and i never know that don sushi has quite an amount of regular customers, cos i always thought that it is a quiet place with not many customers.
and since around two weeks before i quit, they started this japanese buffet thingy and was having big scale promotion in the neighbourhood, so i believe this brought in alot customers, and that time was the busiest moment in my working life!=S
life is filled with ups and downs, so does business in a restaurant.haha
anyway one of the pleasures from my working was that i got to encounter this pair of old couple, they are nice and friendly (i seldom met really nice customers, some are just normal while a few are relly bad-tempered and calculative and rude!). we talked for awhile before they took their bill.
they are a loving couple, which i think is a rare scene to see these days.
haha how i wish that when im old with white hairs someday, i could still have that someone to hold my hand and enjoy the tiniest happiness together even for just a simple japanese meal hahah.
i felt that im touched deep within.
ohh and besides that, the lady boss actually treated me a bowl of Mabo Ramen on my last day of working.
i was indeed touched in the beginning, but i could sense some kind of motive behind it later on.
cos later when i was having the ramen after i clocked off, my supervisor talked to me in her "threatening" way (or perhaps she always talk to ppl in that kind of manner i dunno), asking me if i could help them out during holidays and weekends.
apparently i smelled the purpose behind that bowl of ramen and i totally hate that feeling at that moment, it just tasted sucky suddenly..it tasted like rasuah..
and so i replied her that aww i would try my best and we would keep in touch, but in my heart, i told myself if i would even consider about that.
nevertheless, that is still an uncertainty, probably i would really go back working the next time im looking for a job during my holidays whatsoever..
she told me that they are lacking in workers (i can see that cos there were already two person coming to work and then left the next day or on the first day itself, i think im the only survivor there lol), and since im sort of trained, it would be better than to hire another one and to teach him/her all over again.
seriously i thanked them for their appreciation, probably im a good worker after all haha. cos i have never been late and always obey what they asked me to do, except a few broken-glass cases which i think is absolutely unavoidable to the blurqueen me haha.
now i just wish that they wont act cunning and deduct or delay again on my pay~
and so, there goes my one month of holidays
and im back slacking at home now=S
anyone know of any nice temporary job?
i still feel like making my holidays more fulfilling instead of wasting my free time!
there again i would like to pamper myself and my family and friends with my frist pay!=)*before school starts and evrything goes on in a full and hectic speed=X*
that would be brilliant!
-me and selina, the pretty myanmar girl, and the suave sushi master, ramesh from nepal-
