Actually planned to make this entry a nice one, but den some things crop up so.... Anyway this is abt my working stuffs. (Veron, I have found a job during e holis hor.... hahaha...)
Some of u may have noe thru e news tt e link fr e MRT to Wisma Atria have closed for 2 yrs for upgrading. So they need people (sld I say is gals) like us to tell the commuters tt biz is as usual.
Their guys oso lah but den they are behind e scene de like bring us waters and flyers lor.... So slack and they
have the same pay as us lor. And once I hear tt
they still can go to the Far East de toilets lor and they still can plan where they are gg shopping lor ltr on. Work ConditionsThey (agents, snd ub-con and management) are quite funny oso cos in the beinging, they are still quite short-handed. But den, their pay is still quite low lor and e gals they need still have to be
slim/thin and looks ok de (means pretty de, u cant any ugly de inside...) Den they still keep on hiring ppl till got too many le den we have to be
forced to be on leave lor... den e not so nice de stations like covered walkway, office tower, and some loner stations ( when u say, some ppl will be shocked and u look like an idoit there) is als we tis grp of friends do de lor... Hate them lor...
Our job got two shifts de. Morning (8-8) and afternoon (11-8). But den muz come half an hour earlier. And need to put on make-up. Morning shifts de got 2 breaks (2 hrs) for lunch and dinner. Afternoon de got 1 break onli. And tis job see people le
muz shout 'Welcome to Wisma. See you Again' tis sort of things lah. And give out the flyers to them and direct them lor. We are oso the
street directory, we have ppl coming to ask how to go to Takashimaya, Far East, Herren, so-so hotel and so-so building, Mrt stations, T0ilets, and so on lah... Too many le cant rmb them at once...
We have to
stand particuly the whole day and we had a 10 mins breaks every 2 hrs. But den we dun do so cos
alot of ppl whom we dun noe are checking on us. Sometimes bcos of their checking, we felt tt they dun trust us lor. We still have a
time sheet for them to sign. And sometimes, one person check alr, another come again in just 10 mins lor... And the breaks cant go all at once, muz one by one go. And bcos e small breaks we are alone and we cant rest in public areas so the
best place is the toilets, luckily they dun smell. So by the end of the day, we are dead tired and thirsty even wif all the water we drunk And we still have a breif in e morning and at the end of the day we had debreif.
Intertesting thingsOne day when going home fr work, Wei Ting and I saw Milo Bing (e superband de) but onli two of them, (e specs and e one tt look like Malay ). They board at Orahard and alight at Boon Lay oso same as us. Haha... Den we follow them all the way. Haha... e malay de take bus 179 oso but e specs de dun noe which bus. Once when working, I was stationed at the statue there. Den got one Indian guy come up to it and
KISS it. (can see e saliva mark oso... disgusting man...) Got other ppl see him oso den they laugh lor but den I was stunned by his actions alr lor. Den ltr when he pass by again, he said: this is
my DARLING, DUN TOUCH IT. I was like dotssss...Den there is another Indian guy who wears a green shirt, sun glassess and carry a big red plastic bag everyday. He will come to all of us gals and
ask us some strange qns tt we dun noe and den he will say: ok, I know. Can die right wif this kind of ppl. And he sometimes come to us and tok for few times in the same day.
Examples of the qns he will ask:
How many shops are there in the basements? Do you noe where I can get this (an item)? Do you noe where to go here (a place)? Den once when I was stationed at the MRT there, there was a lady who keep looking at me. And so I thgt she was gg to ask a qns. And indeed she was gg to ask a qns. This is how she phrase she her qns in such a nice way. Lady: Erm... I onli have a bal of 40 centsin my Ez-ink card, and I need to go where where.
Can you lend me some money? Wat lau do I look like an atm to you? There is an atm just a stone throw away lor. Cant u walk over there? I give out flyers, not money...This oso happens in the MRT. An ang moh come up to us and
asked where is the bin. Cant u find it urself? It is so near, do u still have to ask lor. Do u look like e bin directry to you lor?
This happens in the mall. Some ppl come up to us and ask where is the food court, toilets, escalators down, or how to get out of this building lor or where to find e MRT. When there are sign boards all ard. Juz open up your eyes and look ard you. For goodness sake!
And becos of the long hours tt we work, sometimes we have to
find our own entertainment. And our entertaimment is to look at e beautiful ppl. There are more pretty gals den handsome guys. Haiz... A pity...
E handsome guys are our only source of entertaiments. HAHA.... And den some of the guys are working there as well, so we took to finding out where they work and during our break, we go and find them. Checky... E
topman and
staff fox are where e guys work.... HAHA... And there is oso a
fittnce (by california de) event gg on, we get a chance to ogle at the
macho guys oso. But a pity, they smoke. HAIZ....
People whom I sawI saw alot ppl whom I noe while working there. Abit pai seh so sometimes I will hide behind the pillar or something.Once I saw
Jia Ting and her bf or sld I say is she saw me first. She stare at me and den I stared backed thinking tt she looked familar before realizing tt it is Jia Ting lor. HAHA... Cos lonh time nv saw her le lor and they are so bad lor cos they
laugh at us gals all e way fr e MRT to e mall lor. No manners.And I saw Shu Yi oso and her colleage if I am not wrong. She is working at tiong papar or baru now. Office work de better den us shout and stand the whole day lor. And den she laugh at me lor cos say office work is boring. But still office work is more relaxing lor.
N I saw my
cousin once wif her bf and I tease her when she will be getting married. Haha... And I asked how sld I called him. Sld I called him 'tt' (means jie fu). N she say I can called him sam or sam ge-ge.... Hahaha...
Saw Yi Zhi oso wif a gal. But den bcos tt time got alot of shoppers so cant tok to him, onli say Hi den go off le.
Saw
Nora and Grace once when I was working at the covered walkway. Becos I was at the station for quite a long time and one of the gal is the crazy type so I was influenced by her crazniess oso. In the end, I oso abit siao le. Den I still invent a line in chinese de.
Huan Ying Guan Ling Lai Diao Wei Si Ma Guan Chang, Qing Xiang Shou Ni De Gou Wu Le Qu. Is it v funny cos one of my colleages she will laugh lor when I say this.
Bad ThingsWe cant use our phone when working and we cant lene against anything but den some of the gals did so and they are not caught lor. Its so unfair! But when we slack abit, ppl will come and scold us le lor. Sld I noe tt we have tis end, we wld have slack all the way lor and take long breaks like some of them lor. Aand the ppl are quite biased against some of the gals lor, they als give them e best stations lor and they als close one eye against their doings lor.
You turned me into a doll.
