my computer is FINALY FINALLY OKAY! (x

i have got TONS of things to update.
it's going to be kind of random

i shall start with my current job (which is my 3rd job).
i feel that this is the toughest job.
im promoting a BRAND NEW product call
PAN ROYAL ABALONE SLICES/ PIECES

"...not genuine abalone but it's an abalone kind of shellfish.."
that's one of the sentence that i've to repeat everyday =.=

the first day of this job is really horrible.
im totally unfamiliar with my new workplace.
my first impression of the people there was really bad.

first of all, i need to find the office.
so i asked someone and made my way there
and i want to say that the office doesn't look like office at all to some extend.

then i have to look for this person call Jawiyah to get my samples.
so once again, i asked a group of staff..and they just ask me to go to the grocery department outside to look for her.

couldn't they just bring me to her?
nevermind. that's was still okay.
thank god i met her once i got out.

she brought me to the samples. then i asked her for the location of the punch card machine
as the so called "OFFICE" was filled with MANY MANY boxes, i couldn't find it.
so i asked again.
(keep asking and asking =.=)

so finally i found it.

i start work at 12pm. but it was still quite early..about 11.30am
so i went to look for my booth..
i went round and round the supermarket but i still couldn't find it..
so i asked someone (AGAIN).

i was so shocked when i saw that pathetic location.
the stocks are all sealed up in a cupboard,
only the cashier can reach for it.
so how am i suppose to promote?!
i won't even know if the customer bought it..

i almost wanted to cry you know. but i didn't lah.
but i really have no idea what to do.
i have no place to open the sample and cut them up on a plate.
HOW?!
i was wondering..why there isn't any table?

so i went back to the office and asked Jawiyah
she said i have to ask my company. GEE
so i called my supervisor, Benjamin.

he said i dun need table since im not doing any cooking,
and he would come down to Taka at a later time.

so i went back to that pathetic corner and walked to and fro..
then i saw another promoter that was promoting plum wine.
she's VERY NICE!

i forgot to bring money that day.(how blur can i be? -.-)
and she generously lent me money!
hehes (:

anyway, there was another promoter promoting PEPSI MAX
i saw him holding a tray and promoting.
so i thought i could also do the same thing.

i place my things down and wore my apron.
there was another cupboard beside that cupboard.
(does that sounds confusing? =X)
that cupboard displays all the BRANDS' stuff..
im like very bad loh.

i place the plate on top of one of the box.
and i made a space to open the can.
i looked kind of clumsy =X
then i wore the gloves and start cutting the abalone slices..

suddenly, Benjamin appeared.
he saw how pathetic i was.
but i have got no choice but to stay at that place before he gets a better place for me.
i only cut a few slices.

then i didn't know what to do with the rest.
Benjamin told me to cut all of them up.
i felt weird. CUT ALL?
and leave them exposed for HOURS??!

yes. i ACTUALLY did that.
i felt really weird and dumb.
holding a plate for hours.
and people just walk pass me..
plus the place is really very cramp..
so i can't really do much..


*i think i shall continue next time. im tired and i still need to work tmr. it's really very quiet inside. at least most of the time. crowds come and go.and POOF! SILENCE again* :(

Pray for better sales tomorrow!

*back on 31/1/06 1:18am*

it's kind of late now.
just came back from my aunt's house ><
i think i better end off the entry about my job soon.

so erm.. i manage to get a better place to promote.
opposite me was another auntie promoting SWANSON CHICKEN BROTH.
beside me was KNORR's CHICKEN BROTH -.-
so im almost surrounded by chicken broths.

the aunties there are very nice (:
and they are very funny also. lol
everyday we have 1hr lunch break and 30 mins tea break.
and we always chit chat there in the canteen.

i like that auntie that promotes the SWANSON CHICKEN BROTH.
she's auntie annie.
SHE'S DAMN CUTE. lol
despite the fact that she's already 60 plus.
everytime she work i'll get to drink her soup.
very nice (: taste like shark's fin soup but it isnt
and she always share her experience with us..
kind of enriching..

thank god the promoters there are very nice.
and also a few cold storage staff..

there's this guy promoting TIGER BEER.
the way he spikes his hair is damn funny lah..
then one day he din spike his hair..
auntie annie said," today he's not angry..so the hair never stand up.."
LOL =X

and i also get to know 2 people from m'sia.
ahwah auntie and huikeng.
ahwah auntie is very funny.
every break time she will complain to us about the customers.
the way she speaks is really comical.
she's kind of vulgar too =X

there's once she told us about her experience when she was in labour.
she was watching other people giving birth until she forget that she was in labour..
-.- LOL

huikeng is very nice too.
hehes
very friendly..and she even treated me with curry puff on her last day of work (:
