About Working Life and So-called "Supervisor"

It's now already past 12 midnight, meaning now it's 24th of November.

HAPPY 2oth BIRTHDAY, CHIN HONG!!!!

Haha yeah it's his birthday but could not manage to call him because he was too busy with wishes from his other friends.

Anyway, may all your birthday wishes come true, Chin Hong. I sincerely hope that from now onwards you'll always be happy. And to let you know, you've been a great friend, and is still a great friend =) Thanks for everything~!

******************************************************************************

Today will be the 12th day of my work, which was scheduled as a 14-day project. That means there are 2 more days to go! YAHOO!!!!

Well, currently I'm a promoter for a product and I've started work since 13th of Nov. I've been working non-stop since then. So after Wednesday, I'll have freedom again!!! =)

Well, at first I was kinda reluctant to go to work though the pay was a bit attractive. The reason was because, Kevin (Chi Hwa), who was supposed to work with me told me that he could not work for this project anymore as he just had braces on.

I was like, "WHAT? When on earth did you have braces on?? And why did you have it on RIGHT BEFORE the project?! Why must you leave me alone with SOMEONE?" *sob*

So, SOMEONE would be taking over his place. At the thought of SOMEONE, I started to get worried. I was scared that this person, my so-called "supervisor" might be very strict, serious and we might not have topics to chat and that would make the 14-day project damn boring.

The first day I saw that SOMEONE I felt that he LOOKED LIKE a pro. Gosh, I was getting more nervous. He seemed so responsible, so strict until I did not dare to do crazy things like I usually do. What I could do was to listen and follow everything that he said. The rest of the time I just kept quiet, though at times I was too curious so I asked him a few questions.

Well, this SOMEONE, whose name is Benny - 贝尼 or 贝妮 (given by me haha) turned out to be someone super nice, friendly, crazy and talkative like me. WHOA!!! It's too good to be true! Seriously working with him is so much fun, and I also had the chance to learn a little bit of marketing skills.

He's a UTAR Kampar Marketing student and is also my junior haha. You know, I've never seen such a guy like him before who is always so conscious about slimming down (though he's already slim) and his daily calories and nutrient intake counts. Ask him how much protein must we consume a day or how to eat at the cheapest way, he for sure can give you a very satisfied answer. =)

The best thing I like about him while working with him for this long is that he never simply use his "supervisor" power to scold or order to do stuffs. Though of course, when I did any mistake, he would tell me in a quite strict manner.

Anyway, he told me a lot about his family, good friends, weird classmates, weird neighbours,university, past relationships, current target, opinions and thoughts, gossips etc etc. And I don't know why we were always laughing madly. At times I just could not control myself and laughed like a mad woman. I hope that noone complained about us and noone will complain us for the remaining 3 days.

Working on weekends is more fun than working on weekdays because on weekends, there are many promoters promoting various kind of products. I made many new friends and they are all very nice and friendly people.

As for weekdays, there are only both of us and a few aunties, and the crowd is so much smaller compared to the crowd in weekends. So the only thing source of entertainment is from ourselves, by cracking and stupid jokes and crapping some silly stuffs. Luckily sometimes Kevin came to find us or I met my old friends and uni friends. But of course we must be serious also because we are required to hit target sales.

Well Benny, if you happen see this post don't think that I've climbed over your head ya. I just want to let you know HOW NICE ARE YOU haha. Thanks for not bullying me except for saying me short. LOL

The next post I'll tell you about the customers that we've met. But that'll be after my final day of working.

Hmm.... still not sleepy but I got to wake up early. Hope that tomorrow the sales can be mantained at the normal range.

Nitez everyone!
