hi, would you like to try the new energy drink from germany?
huh? simi lai eh?
xin de ti shen sui. u try la, you ren shen de!
ok la, bu yong try. gei wo yi xiang.
*happily brought the whole carton to the counter*
cashier: aunty, $31.20
simi aunty?!! wo bu yao mai le la!
*she walks away in a huff*
wana know what she was wearing? orange halter top with denim hot pants! it's totally OMG! her skin is sagging everywhere and she refuse to surrender to aging. "miss ah-if u really want us to call you that-tonnes of foundation also cant help to cover your wrinkles and sagging cheeks la.."
anyway, i'm gonna quit my energy drink promoter job soon-most probably la. dont know why, tired of it i guess.. with the late payments, the weird customers, the travellings-though i'm paid for those hours, oh yes, and of course my boss.
still remember the very first time we saw her for the interview at novena square, she was wearing super mini-hotpants with spaghetti and OMG, pink lipstick-you know that kind of pink?? had the impression of whether we were there to be interviewed to promote
what kinda things.
yeah, but on another point of view, it's quite a good job. i can slack in between places, like when i'm traveling from one station to the other.. a few other things catch my attention, and i ended up shopping! lol. so yeah, i always reached my station later than instructed. well, and so, it's no doubt i finally got caught last saturday...
11-2: sentosa
3-6: world trade centre(ok, it should be great world city)
so there, i reached the sentosa's 7-11 at 12.30 but no one knows.. shh!! and then had my lunch there, tried to sell a couple of cans, talked with the manager cos he approached me about working at his shop. all these till about 1.40? yep, started packing up and leave for next station.
well, i thought i heard the next station is world trade centre. so with that in mind, i have an hr plus time before the next shift, so i thought i might as well take the yellow-and-blue-line buses to waste abit of time first. alright, so at 2.30, i took the departure bus to harbour front and made my way to world trade centre.
oh well, i still have like, half an hour. so there, i bought Rhumba(the frapuncino weiming intro me-it's totally delicious!) and sat at starbucks reading magazines and slurping away. oh and then, it was 3pm, time to make my way to the 7-11. then i realised.. there isn't any 7-11 at world trade centre! checked my schedule again and realised that it should be great world city. omg. ok, then, i didnt feel worried at all. i was like, might as well, waste more time then i dont hafta promote too long.
but as i was making my way to great world city, Shayne from Magnum called me!
"hey yiwen. where are you??!"
"erm.. i.. lost me way.. took wrong bus and.. i'm now at orchard. waiting for taxi now.. sorry ar!"
"how can you do this?? why didn't you let me know earlier?? you know i trusted you, and i even sent my clients down to take a look at how well you're promoting! why are you like that??"
"sorry shayne.. i'm really flustered, lost my way you see.. so i didnt think of calling you..yet. sorry.."
"ok, you get down to great world city now. call you back."
well, it was then that i knew i was in deep shit. but i had the cheeks to smile. something's wrong with me man.. lol.
yeah, i was thinking that shayne was going to fire me this time, but in the end she didnt.
said i'm very dedicated, so wana give me another chance. hahaha.. more of like she doesnt have enough promoters right now ba!
anyway, i'm thinking of dropping this job and just take up tha Pinnacle job. so the extra time i can use to pick up some reading and study some of weiming's stuff. cos the other we met and he showed me his econs and lit stuff. i was like, felt so much like studying again. too bad he isnt taking history as well. ok anyway, so now i hafta find ways to borrow the stuff from him.. hopefully through this, i'll catch up well..for what? i'm not sure of it myself..
