Hello all.
How have you been?
I've been okay.
I'm sure by now at least someone should know that I'm part-timing as a waitress in fish & co @ 1u. It's alright really, nothing too difficult. Just must remember to be pleasant all the time, which I'm sure some people find it easy to do right? Sadly, I beg to differ, especially when sometimes your manager (well maybe just one of them) tends to be abit bitchy during the weekend shift. But the bartenders are really nice, and the other managers are really fun to be around with. Even the kitchen staff are a jolly bunch of people. Well they do cook our meals too, so that makes us floor staff appreciate them even more~ If we're lucky (meaning not much customers) we get to eat abit earlier. Meals are usually some rice (omg their white rice has to be some of the hardest ever, almost of a rock-like quality; their buttered rice, however, is nice cause its the same ones the customers are served.. usually only if there are leftovers) and some chicken dish or the other - again, if we're lucky, there'll be leftover calamari and sometimes fish too XD Drinks, well, just steal (of course not illegally >_> you know how I casually use the term) from the bar. Of course it won't be the signature drinks, just the regular soft drinks and stuff~
Been working for about 3 weeks now, so yeah I'm pretty much used to how things work (although I know when I'm extra blur I make all sorts of stupid mistakes). I'd really prefer the day shift cause you actually do less compared to the night shift (closing up is a real pain in the ass) but I guess beggars can't be choosers, eh? At the end of the night shift when I'm home I usually just crash straight till 10+ the next morning (well this is when I'm super-tired, and when I first started - you know how it is to break the habit of sleeping really late) and think of what other days I have to go to work. Since my bro usually gets the car to work, I usually end up walking. That's 20 mins of solid walking before I end up standing and running around the restaurant for 4-5 hours straight. Talk about warm-ups. =P
Hope to meet you guys soon. I know the soonest would be Christmas but I won't be around cause I'll be in the East Coast @ my dad's kampung celebrating with my relatives. So I hope you guys round yourselves up and have a great time at someone's place alright?
Till we meet again, I wish you well, and merry christmas =D
