What I've learnt.

Hi readers!

Been away for a few days, well, exactly 8days because I was out making money! Got myself a job as a casual worker in a F&B industry and believe me, it wasn't easy. Among all the jobs I've went, I think this is the hardest one but the experience there was worth while. Working there for just 8days was really an eye-opener for me. Even though I'm just a casual worker there, mind you, they do not give me "special treatment". I have to learn my duty as a cashier and a packer by hook or by crook in just matter of hours. The place I've worked had a lot of varieties of food and beverages that customer could choose from which makes my job even more tough.

 I have seen customers who get really impatient and fussy upon ordering their food. Believe me, after working 8days there, I promised myself not to ill-treat anyone in the F&B industry anymore but give my outermost respect for them. Honestly, I do get very furious with those customers who want to initiate a stir just because of small reasons. I still hold my smile anyways cause that is my job. Being in a F&B industry, you have to be physically and mentally prepared. When I first when for the interview, I was like, "Okay, I can do this! Piece of cake!" But when the time arrives, Gosh, I had to stand for 8 freaking hours straight, hardly get to drink a cup of water, got burnt every once in awhile, need to put on make-up every morning and I had to smile for 8 whole hours! I can't tell you how much pain I was in for the past 8 days! My back sore every single day due to the standing and carrying stuffs in the morning, my hands now are filled with burnt marks, and not to mention some of the customers outrageous orders.

I definitely learnt how to control my temper and how to meet customer's needs in just minutes! I'm also getting faster in applying make-up! I'm normally slow when doing something. I like to take time to look around and take my own sweet time doing something. I guess there are pros and cons to it though.

By the way, this is not the only burnt mark I got. I got like 5 of them. How depressing! 

That's all folks! Feeling really down today so I decided to blog something. Hope you guys don't mind I wasted your time.

Loads of love,
Huiling.
