Christmas eve at work was fun. I was literally slacking off the whole day and continued reading my twilight. There wasnt even much customers in the first place. It was one of whose special days that you will never really put in much concentration to work. Its my first time celebrating with people other than from school or relatives. They know how to have fun too la. The boss was like laughing his head off.
Anyway they ordered Pizza Hut and KFC for us to makan. Plus many of the staffs there bought us presents. Nothing magnificent but still heart warming. Mostly chocolates though. Its the easiest. Who doesnt like choco. But temp staffs like us didnt need to buy anything. Just go there and eat. They had their own lucky draw. Of course the presents were more suitable for them. There were things like breakfast maker or some electrical items that doesnt concern us.
Today no need to dress formally to work. Thats nice. Then i wouldnt have to look like an overaged young kid. Even though im not even 16 yet.
People there are nice. They take care of you and get you out of your deep shits with nasty parents, and buy presents for you, even if you only work there for that month.
Its time to take a break. Kept falling asleep in the morning. And i hate the morning mrt. It totally sucks. Jurong east is by no doubt the worst of all stations. Its irritating every single time i overshoot my station. Especially if thats the interchange, which means i will be going backwards. The worst morning i had was abt a week ago. Firstly, i took the train in the wrong direction from yishun. I went the katib way. Nvm...i take back towards yishun. Then the train terminated at yishun again. So i was back to square one. Then, i slept all the way to jurong east...and back to bukit batok. And the next train i took terminated as usual at jurong east again. When i reached buonavista...i nearly missed my bus. I was still early though. Lucky i woke up early enough.
Actually i dont mind working there again next year if i have the time. At least i can learn something there. Its better than working at mac or smt like that. This one have to use ur brains. And imagination when you are talking to arh nehs with strange foreign accents. You have to deal with pissed off cheena people when they dont get what they want, usually due to their lack of proficiency in english. The worse group of horrible people are the parents. Generally they are all right. After all they just want the best for their kids. But when they dont get what they want for their kids, they start to turn totally absurd. Its like asking us to bend the rules as if im the director or asking me to make an exception to their case for no reason and things that basically are impossible.
The most interesting case i had was with these 2 top scorers from n level. They had another fren there too. From bpghs. They were like papaya la. Yayah like siao. That aside. The first thing they told mi when they came was that they are top scorers etc, then bring out a laminated newspaper cutting showing their faces as if that would make a bloody difference. Anyway. They asked for everything, from exemption to poly to progressions. They asked some questions that were totally impossible to answer with confidence unless you can see the future. Things like, would there be intake for the course 2 years later. And what about the job propect for this course. Isit good? For heaven sake, how can i guarantee anything. What happens if somehow their lives screw up in a few yrs time, blame me? But at least they werent nasty nasty people. Who shouts in your face etc. They were smiling most of the time.
Another one happened to my fren. I was supposed to handle that guy, but he unfortunately intercepted him. That guy was asking for trouble from the start. Start to point at my friend and talk nonsense. I didnt notice them until he asked for our supervisor. He started complaining "Eh he veri rude eww know?!" pointing fingers. "Eww not happy isit?!"
My fren also veh funny he said "I also never do any thing wad?!" They give that kp look.
Then that alam said "Eh you gangster is it? You want to fight isit?! I involved in murder case before you know?!" He had his fist ready.
For what exactly did he do that for i dont know. The strangest of all is that he is proud of the fact that he was involved in a murder case before. Dont know he kill people or people kill him la. Idiot babi.
But arhneh nicest la. Besides having that difficult to comprehend accent.
Recently i went to pool with my pri sch frens at yishun safra. Then got gangster fighting there. I was like aiming at my white ball when someone grabbed the pool stick. I thought it was my friend. I even shouted 'oie'. Then i look up, its the paikia. Oops. He didnt say anything. He just grabbed the stick and walked out of the area. Then another guy came over to grab the stick from him. Starting, it seemed like they were fighting. It was drama. But it soon became apparent that the other guy was just trying to stop him. He prolly wanted to wack somebody outside. Then a few more guys came in and i also dont know what they were doing. One of them returned back the stick eventually. At the end, the 2 person came back with another guy. I think they were stopping him or smt like that. Down there shouting "不要不要". One of them had a pen knife in his hand. When they saw everyone looking at them they started to shout at us. 看什么看,去打你的bowling 啦. 不要看啦. After that the police came long after they were gone. Drama.
And both the fighting happened in a day. Exciting eh.
Anyone want to go out on christmas day? If not i will be stuck at home alone. Since my parents went to msia ler.
