HELLO

I finally started work yesterday! It was tiring. If you're wondering, I'm working as a banquet server. The first thing I thought of was, wow, the ballroom is so small. >.< LOL. Small IS better, if not I have to walk a lot. Heheh. My pay is ridiculously low, as compared to the others. I want an increment!

I made a lot of mistakes yesterday, such as forgetting to clear the big platter and I went to take out the other dish. In the end, two people have to help me. That's embarrassing!!! I wasn't strong enough to carry the huge oval tray; it was really heavy. The good thing is that my partners I met are nice people. :) They helped me to carry the oval tray in and out of the kitchen.

I worked for 12.5 hours yesterday as there are two weddings going on during the day and at night. During the night wedding, I was called out to serve cocktails and I was reluctant because I don't dare to approach people. Oh well, I have to do my job properly.

I also scalded my fingers and legs while pouring and refilling the teapot. I prefer the guests during the day to the guests at night. They were so nice and I almost tripped when one of them caught me in the nick of time. ;D The guests during the night is okay, just that there were many young children running around me and I did not dare to walk too fast lest I spill the dishes on them.

For the first course, we have to carry the big platter and walk out. As I said, I wasn't strong enough to carry it and my body slanted to one side. LOL. However, some of them taught me the right way to carry it. :)

My day was supposed to end at 11pm but it was dragged on and I ended at 11.30pm instead. De Xin and I changed into our clothes and at around 11.55pm, we rushed towards the MRT(we have to change train) and we managed to catch the last train towards Joo Koon by RUNNING. Phew~

This post is too detailed but I wanted to keep it as a memory because that's my first working experience.


PS. I AM GOING TO COLLECT MY O-LEVEL RESULTS IN 1 HOUR 40 MINUTES TIME!!!
