durian fest on saturday WOOT, and followed by a less sinful sakae meal on sunday yay!
it was an impromptu decision to send agnes off to swiss, and in the end we were still at the airport at 2am -.- i slept at 3am and i dunno why i am wide awake at 8am. i must have caught the jeslin virus argh.
badminton later! hope i can find my racket and shuttlecocks. and i have so many kdrama episodes to backlog AGRH!
Thursday, June 25, 2009 @ do you know what's worth fighting for?
apart for the last part which gave me a headache and made me wonder when the movie's about to end (note: it's over 2 hrs long), this show's worth a watch! the moment where optimus prime transformed we just went WOAH! and of course.. bumblebee is so cute as usual hah!
and hannah montana yesterday. yup not bad a movie if not for the poor quality online :( gonna download her songs soon. DO THE HOEDOWN!
this is just what happened to me just 30 minutes after crashing huiting's OG for scamp yesterday. omg the freshies do not give face do they?
and omg avatar the last airbender is showing in movies next year! but shyamalan is filming it.. sorry but i dont like any of his movies. hope he doesnt flop this one!
ICT wasnt as bad as i thought. indeed it was really glad to see the company again.. the faces are still the same for most of us, except for a few who have significantly gained weight over the past 2 years.
everything seemed to be the same as before, hanging around in all the branches, all the arrows. seems like we're NSFs all over again.
the trainings for this time is still ok. gained insight from the 2 days of training and i learnt more about my new role thanks to the trainers. hope the 2 fellows can ORD soon and continue with their studies.
but this time round, a stepped up role. which means more responsibilities and stress also. and now that we are all NSmen arrows cant shoot out as easily as before. this is gonna be hard, but i guess we all have to learn to live with it.
and chinglee is a damn bastard seriously, you better watch out!
my mind's in a mess now. dont know what to expect when i go back tmr. certainly i'll be looking forward to seeing the old faces all over again.. those whom i've not seen for almost two years.. i wonder how they are doing now, esp those who're working and all. yet i am not looking forward to seeing those faces that i DONT WANNA SEE EVER AGAIN.
and the added responsibility comes in too. apparently my position has been upped and i am totally clueless as what i will be doing.
and not to forget, back to the old life again.
wont be online these week, anything sms me. esp if you wanna bitch (points to shih xh!) XD
why bother packing something that we wont need to use?
and for goodness sake it's not something light. it amounts to more than 10kg i am very sure. we wont be using it for the whole week, so why bother bringing it in? waste my energy and waste space. i could have settled for 1 x crumpler for 1 whole week, trust me.
and your answer to my question.. for unity sake. it's so stupid. yes yes unity is important, but for your information we are talking about whether it's necessary to do extra stuff. yes i know we need it on sat, i will bring it on sat. but from mon to fri? look at the programme and you'll know for youself. your answer is far from convincing.
i wonder why some things do not change. inefficiency within the organisation itself.
i foresee im gonna lug the whole luggage in, stuff it under my bed, and then lug the whole luggage out on friday, without touching the contents AT ALL.
finally tmr's the last day of work. the 16 days seemed so short yet so.. forever.
2 other customers pissed me off during atrium sales a few days back. one asking me to unfold each design of the shirts available on display, and the other trying to outsmart me buy claiming that the 2 bermudas design that we're selling have different lengths when they are actually the same. i am just tired to repeat everything all over again. but owell it's over and i have ranted enough to so many people.
i realised that doing sales is not easy. attending to customers from all walks of life with a smile no matter how tired you are. speaking if lethargy, standing for 10+ hrs everyday for 10 days is simply no joke. at the end of everyday my legs felt like breaking. the only incident that could match this feat was the end of my marathon. good job! now i really respect those working in sales line (not that i don't respect them, but now with added admiration)
so, by 7pm tmr i will be sort of a free man again. looking forward to it. gonna have a good rest, and then need to prepare for my in camp next week.
i know the day hasn't been going well for you. especially today's your very special day and it turned out to be like that. but the day is almost gonna be over! let's endure for a while more and then you can get your well-deserved rest. and for whatever happened today, take it all on your stride. some pple are just damn hard to please, just let her do the way she wants it to be, at least it's gonna be over, like tmr!!
on a sidenote #1:
isit me or is the weather getting hotter and hotter? how come my ears get so hot and red all the time?
work so far has been boring. no one wants to come to the carnival at all! so i have been standing there for 10+ hrs a day.. swatting flies.. looking at air, and hoping that someone will come and look at clothes.
and oh for goodness sake, when you messed up the clothes while trying to look for your size, can you pls have the courtesy to AT LEAST attempt to fold back the clothes.. you know like action action that kind, at least we will appreciate. better than just leave the clothes lying down there. for your information, we are retail assistants, not MAIDS.
oh oh and to present you with my 3 most irritating responses from the customers:
#3:
me: hi sir/mdm, would you like to take a look at our clothes? customer: ok, look only, don't want to buy.
>.<
#2:
me: good afternoon/evening, wanna take a look at our clothes? customer: WHAT'S SO GOOD ABOUT AFTERNOON/EVENING
and my most hated response:
i was talking to a bunch of male teenagers who were looking thru the clothes.. me: hello, how may i help you? one customer: you can help me wank.
