working days
Alright, I'm really so very sorry about the delay in those postings. Even though exams were over long ago, I still failed to do the regular postings which I had promised earlier. Sory about that, because my laptop has yet to come. *sigh*, what a disappointment. I'm so much looking forward to more soccer matches though. HAHA. Been missing it ever since I started work.
Well, speaking of it, work can be so much fun and grumbles, all simultaneously. Fun as in you get to know a lot of people, new colleagues and all sorts of customers. Grumbles, because of all the naggings your supervisor has for you and the long hours of "good morning, how may I help you sir/mdm?" A rare opportunity indeed, I'm finally back here posting, greatly motivated by Joel's LA dairy. Haha, I'm very envious of him for all the fun he gets to enjoy loh, but who ask me to have him as my best friend? I'm happy that he's ding well there.=)
Back to me, myself, I. HAha. Like what I said, work can be realy fun. As in when you are in the shop, you tend to talk to yourself, subconciously, perhaps to get rid of the awkwardness of facing the patronisers who failed to enter my shop. Haha. Hm... and the machines work in amazing ways, which almost succeeded in killing me by having the occassional hang-overs and the running our of audit roll (for your information, that refers to the receipt paper).
There was once when I was transferred to the terminal two's rainbow caravan, the shop under the same group as cocoa tree. That was my first time there, and my job? To relieve the full-timer there while she goes for break. Well, never would I expect so much to happen during that period of an hour. That looks real short, doesn't it? It goes like this, firstly while I was serving a customer, the audit roll ran out. And what make it worse was that I couldn't find the replenish for it. Then, subsequently, the customer took out her airport pass which entitles her to a 15% discount off regular item, and she paid with 3 airport vouchers. All these different modes of payment when come togetehr can be real confusing. So, what happened in the end? I got to void the receipt because I forgot to give her the discount. And instead of encouraging, guess what my supervisor said? " you can break the record already, can give you a medal(for voiding so many receipts)." So sad right? HAiz. That's my supervisor, but she caan be very good if not for her mouth.
Right, and yesterday more things happened. I did the relieve work again, but at the old branch. Things still happened. I gave something for free because I mistook that item for another promotioned item. Had to pay 3.25 bucks loh. haiz. Then, more things followed. I didn't know the receipt machine wold actually go offline if I open the lid, and no one told me that. In the end? The whole machine hanged, and I kept pressing the [ctrl][alt][dlt] buttons, but to no avil, until I notice the small light indicating the online status was off. Phew! Relieved.
And the day before yesterday. I did the morning shift and the sales was bad, 35bucks down 3 hours. That sucks. But the seniors told me that's normal for morning shift. Then afternoon came, the sales suddenly shot up to around 500 bucks in less than 2 hours. And the rainbow caravan branch called to check on the sales. Theirs was 500. Yea! We beat them, despite theirs being the livelier branch. I'm proud of it. And yesterday was my second triumph in beating rc Muahahahaha. I wanna be the best salesman man!! muahahaha
Alright, that's about it. Until I'm back again, see you guys. This is a realy long post though=)
And yea, I'm missing some of my friends too! And of course, soccer.
Going out with sufie later=) My new colleague=)Labels: work
