keming is done!

phew! afther the whole 3 days of killing, the work is finally done! i kinda miss the girl in the OP shirt and billabong slacks. but will, heck lah. exam results are out and it's kinda funny, alot of ppl in the class are getting a "b" average in gpa. sounds sucky rite? lol. been working for the pass 3 days and kinda like my job. people speaking of "ugly singaporeans" and "kiasu attitude". it's all in a singaporean. i'm kinda dun make any sense now but after working in the "service" department, helping the consumer to measure their sizes, i realise that kiasuness in parents in not just snatching the samples. most of them even queued, and when the queue passes by the sampling station, they demand for the sample. i was quite pissed at them, but i mean, if i have a wife like that, i'm actually quite happy about it. haha. servicing is very fun, soon hao and i kinda wanna give our best to all the customers. it kinda hurt whn i fail to help a customer, especially whn the sample is missing and came back only after 10 mins. i personally dun pay alot of attention on service, i'll happy whn there is great service, but i would not get angry easily over poor services. coz i do know that there is a certain limit. BUT i do want to empasise that if we singaporeans are to break into the market and a higher living standard, SERVICE is the key. look at the japanese, they are the senseis of service. haha.


ps: happy birthday, edwin "fat brother" tan

overeating

today cannot dont blog. haha. i'm currently working in rjc now as a uniform seller. a humbling experience. i realise something, rjc ppl walk on the cement pavements, and ppl like me, poor and always look down, lets them walk on the cement pavements. i always get grassed when the group takes up the whole pavement and not giving up any space for the opposite direction to proceed on the cement. not that i despise them or trying to bring their reputation flat, and of course, NOT ALL RJC PPL ARE LIKE THIS, i was just thinking, if this little act proves what our future leaders' attitude is, then i think this is will be the factor that might cause the downfall of Singapore. middle class workforce supports the higher class workforce, and when the middle class workforce is being look down upon and got screened out of the picture, the economy will breakdown. it's like a boss with a fully automated factory and no maintainence crew, the boss is loaded with the technology but missed the picture of having lower working class personels to move the assets into profits.

forget about this. today darn good, lots of sales, lots of movements, little of boredom. and got my stuff from NTUC thn went to sch for a camp briefing. on the bus, there were only afew ppl on board, and there was an old lady 2 seats infront of me. it's just another boring trip to sch and there is not materials to read, so i got out my FOC gardinia bun to eat. i finished my bun and thn looked around and daydream. after that i kinda made eye contact with the old lady and she told me something, :ni yao mian bao mah? (you want a bread?)" i was like "huh?" i declined coz i'm quite full and thn she reached into her bag and pulled out a breadtalk chillifloss bread and reached out towards me "na la na la.... (take take)". or coz i cannot decline liao mah, not that i was tempted, it's because she searched for the bread in the bag for quite sometime, so i paiseh to decline thn take. of coz, if you're a singaporean, most probably you will think that the old lady is very good, but i dunno y this thought came to me "the bread is expired or poisoned". but i kinda dropped this thought and thanked her. she's so kind, if we can be like her, singapore will be more beautiful.
