wah! i was looking at my homepage at blogger before realising that this post is actually my 700th post (i got so many things to say one meh?).
actually i've always felt that I've never ever grown up. but after reading my older blog posts (and laughing over how stupid i sound each time), i realised i've definitely grown up! (somehow or rather).
Anyway, now I'm already starting to work (all different part time jobs). like I've gotten the job as weekend promoter, and i'm teaching pri 4 and pri 5 science (haha funny). and that day while i was on my way to class, i was thinking to myself , ''my science so lousy! what if i teach them den they fail ah??"
luckily it didn't turn out that way... or at least, i think so lah.
and halfway through writing this, i went onto Xiaxue's blog and realised that she has actually wrote out her love story, like how she and her boyfriend fiance met, fell in love etcetcetc till now when she's finally gotten engaged.
and as mentioned in my earlier posts (and i've got a bunch of unfeeling friends to complement it), i cried every single time i watched the proposal video. literally lor!!!! and obviously i didn't laugh at her, ''I'M ENGAGED!!! *waves hand*" part. -___-
and after her last part where she was saying like, ''i used to think no one would ever love me coz i'm so crude etcetcetcetc.''. and i was thinking to myself, hey, isn't that all that I've been thinking of my whole life? WAH!!!! if thinking that way would get me such a bf/husband in 10years time!!! hahaha! :P
okay i know it sounds weird la. skully 10years later i still unattached for nth years and counting lor. omfggg.
actually i'm quite worried that I won't get married for the rest of my life and get laughed at when i reach 50 years old (like how my friends and i laugh at ********* ** for being so cranky coz she still not married yet after 10 thousand years). and i hope i don't get married at 40 years old to some old balding man with oily scalp (will get laughed at by students for going clubbing with husband at the age of 40, and only got married at that age too lol!)
ahem. so let's hope that I dont end up being a teacher like that if not i'll get poke fun at for the rest of my life by students like me! (haha!).
anyway speaking about jobs, I really can't help but scoff at promoter jobs.
anyway just in case you dunno, I've been a promoter at supermarkets (hanah hanah) for the past 2 weekends (except for last saturday where i asked ruoting to sub me at work coz I had to attend a wedding lunch at Marina Mandrin hotel).
and i've worked at carrefour and sheng siong.
and both places are SUPER DAMN DIFFERENT!!! REALLY!!!!
1. location
Sheng Siong
punggol sheng siong is located in the middle of a bunch of hbd blocks, with only one coffee shop, one bakery, one clinic, and one salon.
Carrefour
carrefour is located in the middle of suntec city with many shops, cafes, dvd shops etc. do i need to say more?
2. staff
Sheng Siong
the staff in punggol sheng siong are super damn unfriendly!!!
me: uh hi may i know where's the store?
idiot: DUNNO LAH DUNNO LAH! FIND URSELF LA! OR GO ASK THE PERSON IN RED LAH!!!
p/s: half of the people there were in red.
Carrefour
the staff there super super friendly and nice lah!!!
and even if they don't know me, they were super damn polite!!!
me: hi may i know where is the store?
friendly staff no.1 : im sorry i'm not very sure...
me: oh it's okay ((:
see!!!!
and even the aunty there also very nice hor!!
me: hi may i know where's the store?
nice aunty: oh! come come i bring you there!!
see!!! what the shit is wrong with sheng siong?!
and it's not just one or two staff who are friendly and nice btw, it's literally ALL!! even right up to the cleaner aunty lor. clean floor also so happy. unlike ss. *scoffs*
3. The supermarket itself
sheng siong
so small!!!! and the shelves super damn squeezy!!!! how to promote lor! stand there and promote den people tsk u coz you're blocking their way!!!
and the goods are placed so messily!!! wts lor.
want to find my goods also difficult.
in fact i was totally promoting without a tray. coz they packed the store in such a way that me (and my company's driver) totally couldn't find it.
thankfully there's this stacker (guy, quite cute) working there who was helping me all the while ((:
but still!!! fk.
Carrefour
ALL the stuff are placed super orderly!!!! like even i was there for the first day only and i one look can tell what is placed where lor. tsk.
like, even their system is extremely orderly. when i reach, i know how to go to the security place to exchange pass, and go to the store to collect my table and goods. btw sheng siong don't even have a freaking store(room) *scoffs once again*.
4. Promoters
sheng siong
how come all the promoters in sheng siong all aunties (with me as an exception, duh!) one ah?! somemore ALL so unfriendly. don't even bother to talk to me or anything. shit you.
Carrefour
almost 50% of the promoters are my age or younger!!!! and all very fun to be around!! like i can have lunch with them, bitch with them about non-existant people etc. even the manager also damn cute and funny.
me: *pokes raisins*
manager: eh!! i take 2 sticks of raisins ah???
me: orh take lor!
manager: i wanna give one to my girlfriend la *winkswinks*
rofl. ohmanz. SS. pfft.
do i actually still need to say more? it's almost like heaven and earth!!! or should i say, heaven and hell! even customers in carrefour are more well mannered and everything. goodness gracious.
but of course, the best place to be at is doubtlessly, Friends learning centre (FLC)!!!!
although i've only worked there for one day, but the staff there were really really friendly!!! really!!!
like the moment i walked in... (i was a total stranger there)
minghao (the admin guy): HELLO!!! YOU'RE KIMBERLY RIGHT!!!
me: oh ya. hi! (:
minghao: HIHIHI!!! IM MINGHAO!!
me: hello!
xinyun: hello! you're kimberly ah!! im xinyun! i sms-ed you just now!
me: yaya! i saw!!
another girl at the counter: hello!!! i'm ***** (sorry i cnt rmb ur name!)
minghao: ya haha! she's p6, next yr going sec 1!!
me: really ah! hi!!
you get what i mean. like EVERYONE there super damn friendly. like as though everyone knew me for years!!! even the students!!! even though they only knew me for 5mins, they were totally damn friendly!! like as though i have taught them for like, forever! AWESOME (:
like even before i left, i was taking my bags, and there was another 2 tutors nua-ing somewhere at the back, and they saw me and one of them were like, ''hi, u going back already? my name is *****!". sorry i forgot your name too :/ haha!
madly awesome! which is why i refused to give up this job, and is willing to give up any other jobs (: besides, the pay is awesome :D
