No way, josè! I can't imagine myself looking like that! So, I went to look for a job in a mall that was nearby my house which was KLCC. I wanted to work at Toy's R Us but there was no vacancy! Arggh! I wandered around a bit and saw this cafe that looks kinda interesting so I walked in and asked whether they had vacancy, actually they were finding workers. :) I filled in the application form and they told me to work at the Menara Hap Seng branch located just 10 mins from KLCC cz this branch is full. So, I told them tht I'll start on 22nd Dec. The manager, Mr. Bala said alright.
...........Then came 22nd, my shift starts at 10 so I arrived there 5 mins before, the supervisor, Mr. Gobi told me I was supposed to be there 15 mins before.. I was introduced to the other 2 workers there, Dialan & Azamri whom I called Abang cz he was the most senior there. I was given the duty to memorise the menu and to give out flyers, standing outside and inhaling the smoke and dust gave me the cough and flu that I didn't ask for.
I wanted to go back inside but I had to finish giving out the flyers, I managed to give it all out by 1. Then, I was taught how to serve the customers and to welcome them when they walked in. I went for lunch at about 3 as there was a big crowd from 12 till 3. I went with Abang to eat lunch at one abandoned parking lot where there was a small stall selling nasi lemak, mee, etc. After eating, we continued sitting there cz our legs were aching after standing for so long! Imagine standing for 5 hours straight without even having a chance to sit. There wasn't a lot of customers today. Most of them went to Starbucks & Old Town which were next to us..
I went back at 7 cz we had to work exactly 8 hours excluding 1 hour break. Tht was the end of my first day of working there.
I worked for another 2 days, then I took off on 25th Dec as it was Christmas & Eze's parents 20th wedding anniversary. I continued on 28th and 29th then I took off again, continued on 4th Jan as sch students & working adults went back to school & work. I worked for another 11 days as I wanted to enrol in college after I've visited the Star Edu Fair. My last day of work was on the 14th of Jan. Had a lot of good & bad memories there but I had several complications while working there, I haven't received my Dec & Jan pay as I'm writing this post, I only received my application letter on my last day of working there and I didn't received my set of uniforms! But, at least the pay was good which I wouldn't disclose it here.
