its been 4 weeks since hy hols started and im now left with two more..... wasted my hols....most of it....

On my first week, i decided to take a rest before going job huntingthe following week... never did i expect to 'rest' for three weeks and now it is the fourth week... haiz...

when i first got the job a Sheraton Towers, i was delighted.. i mean i got the job, confirmed, the manager tolad us that, despite starting two weeks later, i didnt mind... a part of me felt relieved that i had a job so i wont have to be worried about not having money cos now, getting money from my mum wasnt easy no more... just when i was keeping my hopes up... it all came crashing down back onto me... i found out that the days which i booked all was not approved or what ar but the bottomline was that i did not get to work even a single day... i was devastated.. how would you feel if that were to happen to you.. waited two weeks only to find out that.. felt like bombing the hotel down mann... only if i could... with anger boiling inside, i tried my best to remain as calm as possible. went to the office and talked to the whoever-in-charge in the room...i told my situation..and her reply was simply fuck man.. she told me to just book for the following week.. only god knows how i was feeling at that very moment... i then shoot back saying what kind of system was this and that, i was about to go all the way out man..it was just a matter of time till profanities and curses was thrown to them...luckily she cut me as soon as i started talking as she said there are still places left and she could put me on sat and sun to work... god bless her damn it... and at least i get to work and have money... sat came and left as soon as it started.. initially indera and i were told that we'll start at 6-2am but after working, we're told to go back at 11, after the function ended... luckily we didnt mind as we were already feeling kinda tired... just doesnt feel like working... hmmm.... the work was fine.. we handles the beverage.. serving the guest all kind of drink... soft-drinks, chinese tea, brandy, red wine, beer and stout... easy job.. but the standing part sucks... i hate standing and have nothing to do... i rather walk around or do something... Sun was better... i was attached to another senior... oklah.. he's good.. i was given the opportunities to serve the food to the guest.. it was kinda hard having to use the forkand spoon to serve as a substitute to the normal tongs... but i manage to get used to it.. and i get to carry the big tray on my shoulder.. tuff one there... my only fear that the things will drop luckily it didnt... my senior told me i did great that day... learned alot of new things...

On mon, while i was lying on the sofa watching tv as usual, i received a call from Swissotel Merchant Court to come down on tues at one for training.. I was overjoyed! i went to the training... was told alot of things.. the manager is friendly, constantly making jokes. Brief us with all the procedures, what to do and what to expect so that we wont be lost or dont know what to do on our first day...1-4.. i was enlightened thanks to the training...he said that they will call us and tell to come down for one day for on-job-training(OJT) before starting work.. i'll be working either on mon or thurs.. good enough for me.. They are very systematic, i'm impressed! unlike Sheraton where they dont even have a standard procedure and protocol.. such a disgrace...
