Whoa..its thursday already!??! That was fast. REally. Let me see what i've been doing. Monday and Tuesday was training for my job as a waiter. But the company wants us to be called Customer Service Assistant- makes our job sound soooo much better. Well, i dont really mind. Started my job yesterday with the bistro being short of people. Guess what: IT WAS LIKE A BATTLEFIELD!! REally. Really ReAlly. REALly ReALy REaLly. Rofl. Being shorthanded, you can guess what the staff were facing there. EVeryone was running around. I had to leave my post and attend to the customers bla bla bla. Yup. I just went around and did what i was taught during training. I did okay but i was quite scared. No, really scared! Haha...the first soup i brought to the customer had to be changed because by the time i got the soup to the customer, the soup was all over the tray!
DELIFRANCE ROCKS!!! hahax. REally. Wanna see how my work is like, visit Ngee Ann City Delifrance anytime. Just not during lunchtime because that's hell hour. Being short of manpower can be fatal! Hahax. WEll...some customers DID get pissed off because we were really slow with their order and all. Sorry but we are humans too. We were doing the best we can! Haha..first day and i got a culture shock! All my previous jobs were in the service industry too. But this is wayyyyyyyyyy over the top. REally really way. One wrong move and you could lose sales. Lose too much sales and you lose your job. Oh well.
It could help if the customers were abit kind too. Yep. Stop being bitchy and stuff. WE know that you've got money. If not, we wouldnt have let you order our food, cook it, bring it to you, let you eat it and then let you walk away without paying. No one does that. Not even the lowest of the lowest: Mcdonalds. You order on the spot, you pay on the spot. No money: BYE BYE! But i was really lucky though. The first customer i handled. She was verrrrrrrrrrrry helpful. Very kind. Very understanding. I guess she cloud see that it was my first day or something. THANKYOU MA'AM! haha.
That's the problem with singaporeans. Just because they have money, they think that they can just boss ppl around to do their bidding for them. First of all...WE DONT EVEN GET PAID ENUFF!!! Even our managers get paid lower then 2k a month. In America, their pay is just as low. But how can they manage to scrape thru their lives? TIPS! yes. TIPS! You want better service? Pay us more! A lot more! Right now, our incentive to provide you with service is because we want to keep our jobs and please our managers. But above all, we are helping each other. Heck...restrauning is just like soldiering. You dont do it for anything else but for each other. Yep.
The other problem with Singaporeans is they think they can do just abt anything they want. I know that we have 2 entrances that provides the shorters route to get to the others side. But PLZ!!! WE'RE RUNNING A BUSINESS!!!!!! Even an old bugger passed thru. And when i confronted me, he scoled me...RIGHT INFRONT OF MY COLLEGUES!!! Haha..they told me to cold off when i was abt to go after tat bugger. Oh well...he has just a few days left on earth. Let's all let him enjoy the few bits of it.
Actually...im kinda tired and out of ideas on wat to right abt. I just have to concentrate wat i currently dislike the most and write abt it. Well...tmr's shift is 3-11. SO i have a lot of time to slp in. THANK GOD! If not, i'll make a lot of mistakes from going gong like just now. Phew
