today's my 2nd day working at
gelatotwist.on the 1st day when i was learning how to do everything it sounded fine.but i had to scoop icecream!the person cheated me haiz.i scoop until my hands still hurt today.but it's true i dont have to scoop alot.didnt scoop any today actually.just have to do it when the stock comes or runs out which isnt very often.
and so it was pretty slack i would say.which i kind of didnt like ytd.i mean to have nobody to talk to and nothing much u can do is like dumb,except u earn money for doing nothing.so ytd i busied myself washing the cups and scooping the icecream cos the stock came,and folding tissue napkins.turned out i really had nothing to do today cos i did everything ytd.i dont like it cos i feel like im cheating the boss's money.and seriously she dont earn enough on wkdays to even cover my salary.feel so bad.but the wkends sales are better so oh wells.
and sometimes i dont know whether to scoop icecream or wait dumbly for pple to come.cos i have to go to the back of the shop to scoop icecream so i cant really see if anyone's coming.so today i ended up sitting in front almost the whole time and i started to like slacking there.like can smile at pple when they walk past..haha.
btw did i mention the shop is beside a WAFFLE shop selling ICECREAM as well?oh my i think my boss chose such a dumb location oops.seriously everyone who comes will go to that shop instead cos it's bigger and there's a place for them to sit down and eat.and the place is super cosy.my mouth waters when i smell their waffle and they like damn good too!when i stop working there i shall go eat the waffles haha.now we're rivals so i shant eat haha.the lady who works there quite friendly.will always smile at me when she walks past haha.
and one thing i hate is that cos im the only one at the shop even when i go to the toilet i have to close the shop!!it's freaking troublesome.so i end up not going to the toilet for the entire day.torturous man.and i bought bread for ytd's dinner b4 i started work so that i dont have to close shop to go for dinner.and today i ended at 430 to go for an interview.so dinner's settled.seriously i dont think i can hold my bladder like this everytime.and now my dinner time is probably abt 4.cos that's when nobody comes.that sucks cos i'll be hungry again very soon lol.always end up eating the icecream cone cos it's damn big and filling.
oh ya the icecream.the flavours are damn nice i must say(:even the durian one is damn pungent(i hate durian though but this one smells real good)but they dont have all flavours at any one time.quite dumb but they dont have enough space in the freezer to accomodate all flavours.and the best seller(strawberry cheesecake) is currently out of stock till next monday!!sad-ded.it's really super nice!!!haha.so if u're free can pop by the shop(:
anyway since ytd is my 1st day at work i screwed up by forgetting to tear off the sticker at the place where the icecream will come out of.and the icecream end up spurting out like mad in all directions because of the pressure exerted and with no exit!argh.screwed up twice.think i made the customer freak out.have to explain it's my 1st day there.so embarrassing!but i rmbed for all scoops today!haha.hope i dont screw up anymore(:
altogether not a bad job la.but the business is seriously not good.bad i would say.according to econs theory it will shut down cos it cant even cover variable costs like my salary!so pathetic haha.well,it's nice after i got used to everything.today and tmr as well i'll really have to slack at the counter for 9hours cos i did everything alr!haha.it's not like i dont want to promote the icecream or something but seriously if pple dont even WALK PAST the shop i cant do anything right.and for every hour less than 10 pple walk past the shop only.and i sell abt 12icecream a day so it's abt 1 per hour.okay let's not go on to probability.it's enough to see how much im slacking.
and SO,im happily learning jap there.but i cant really learn in peace cos i have to keep looking up to see if pple are walking past the shop.plus i feel pretty guilty.at least i know how to read and understand simple sentences now.really basic ones though cos im at lesson2 only haha.and i got to revise my hiragana which i havent been reading or writing it since sec4.can read fairly fast now la.yay i shall gambatte!
btw the interview i mentioned earlier was for a job at yamaha at sales coordinator.at 1st everything wasnt going very well alr and the interviewer made me feel so stupid(shant go into details and not his fault)but i can tell he's a good employer and has good work ethics and..oh well i dont know how to put it..he has good principles?(:anyway after spending almost 45min for the interview and for me to actually consider taking up the job i asked abt the pay and the hours.when he said 5 i was like ... but will increase if my performance is good.so okay fine.then for the working hours he said everyone starts with part time and the roster is arranged by him.max hours per wk:44hours.fine.min hours per wk:8hours. WHAT?! then i knew i wasted the 45min plus the 4.5hours of work!!shouldnt have gone for the interview man.if i work only 8 hours a wk i might as well not work.
but in any case i was glad i ended work early and so as not to waste my train fare from city hall to dhoby which is freaking ex now i went to daiso and bought a few things and then to sembawang to look for the lena park cd i wanted to get.it's a concert live cd1 and 2 plus vcd.saw it at hmv and it was a freaking 26bucks.guess how much isit at sembawang!20.90!!me happily bought it and is listening to it now.it's nice!!!!yay!!the not so nice thing is that there's cheering for every song..which i hate really.but the songs are nice la(:(:
okay now im going to watch 'bambino!'it's really freaking nice(:
ja!
