left for work at 7, went to ps with ali for McD's breakfast and received good service from the manager himself. made our day for starters. (we knew that travelling time would take us at least an hr but still took our time at breakfast for obvious reasons; we don't care if we're late everyday now:) 2 bloody guys there however, walked passed our table and waved and "hello"ed! us. we didn't even know them.
reached workplace at 9.10 instead of 8.30, started attending to customer straight away while that bloody woman chit-chatted with her 50 something kakis. somehow customers keep coming to us at one end of the counter instead of those aunties' gathering at the other end. i guess those aunties took advantage of this and left all the customers to us throughout the day. i am bloody pissed of. ali and i were bullied. AGAIN. yea, bullied.
#1:
bloody Hag and company (of fellow gossipers who gossip whole day long about their colleagues and the boss herself) moved into the nicely ventilated classroom with fans, while we sat outside waiting for/upon customers.
#2:
a few customers gave me some stupid slip of paper or reciept to claim their books, and i had no idea what to do with them. so there, i refered this to Hag, sadly having to walk inbetween her circle of fellow gossipers and to interupt their fellowshipping, and guess what she told me?
"take the blue file over there (i couldn't even see where her 'there' was just by her eye power. she didn't even point it out, instead stared at the blue file.) and check." check what? was i supposed to give the customer his/her book she wanted to claim? how'd i know if that slip of paper they gave me was authentic shit. Hag wasn't even looking at me when she said that. she was still so into the gossiping fellowship. did she see that i was so bloody confused?
3#:
we were supposed to have lunch break. and there was no eating places nearby, hence Hag would often send her daughter who works with us, to take orders and buy food back to the school. she didn't even bother ask ali and i what we wanted and her daughter then left to buy their chicken rice. were we supposed to work till 4pm without lunch?
4#:
they didn't pack those pre-odered boxes well. when ali and i served this customer who pre-ordered and went through the booklist with him, we found out that half of the items in that bloody box wasn't included in and the amounted price included everything on the list as well as some that were not supposed to be included. nice one there ladies, cos the customer almost killed us when we didn't know what was going on. wtf were they doing while packing these boxes? just everyday gossiping i guess:)
5#:
we've been told to help out this certain aunty in-charge (which turned out to be Hag) on the phone before we actually met Hag, before we started work at De LaSalle. heard that customers were complaining about mistakes she made or something. no wonder, she was too busy gossiping to check for her customers.
6#:
they made us pack up while they chatted away. everything! and even intructed us where to put what back to their places.
7#:
Hag and gang decided to go off early, so they packed up, took up their bags, and was about to leave. ali and i did the same since we always left when the aunties in charge left. and again, guess what they told us? "you all stay back, it's not yet time to leave, still a few minutes more and if there's any customers, you attend to them." and they left.
8#:
they earn much more than us. doing nothing.
such a screwed up day at work, but during our trip home on the mrt was hilarious! added 2 more people to my list of "the few (not quite few though) insane/sick/perveted people i met this year" one kept walking up and down the mrt, at least 5 times i guess. just walking! another sat beside me and kept staring. when i turned, he turned and stared. omg, really stared. i think he's scared of me. i'm scared too uncle! couples were everywhere too. we observed the two-seater in the mrt endlessly being sat on by couples. one guy was wearing an exact hairband his gf was wearing too. ha. and we played the some turban game. whoops. i shalln't blog it down.
