Woot! I went for probation trials for both of my jobs today! It really surprised me that the computer shop called me one day late to usher me for a tryout! That's good haha! That is how I spent 6 hours basically helping out potential customers around, collect and input incoming stock and some other menial works like putting up stocks for display. Arrgh.. when will I be given a chance to build a computer, I'm itching to build! Something peculiar is that the actual boss are almost missing for the most of the day, only coming in to replenish stock. I haven been given the chance to handle money yet (duh!) but I doubt I would ever have that chance. Very sien to call my customers to find my colleagues to pay money. The job wasn't hard, quite easy as today wasn't a busy day. Wonder how would a really busy day would be. It's like taking a stroll. Anyway, I left the place reminding myself to know where and what stuff the shop has ~
Unlike the long probation, the restaurant try-out is short, close to just an hour. It was a crash course. I'm totally in charge of an important information chain! There are 3 sections for this restaurant, the waitering, the kitchen and everything else in between. I'm in the middle department. What I did was to receive the orders from the waiters, prepare them properly for the kitchen to cook and for the guys who serve. This part is easy, just to clip the tags for the kitchen and put the other sheet up on a board. Then when the kitchen rings, if there are no one around available I'm expected to help serve it. Just to take out the keg and cross out it from the sheet then serve, simple as that, complete with a smile. But the kitchen is very slippery, dun like it. However, that's not all. The other half of my job is inside the kitchen! To wash the teapots, prepare the tea, stuff the rice inside that tupperware, take out the cleaned bowls, cutleries and the others. Though when I did not exactly focus on that earlier, dun really like the kitchen. But overall, I'm good enough to be hired, unlike some other guy earlier who did drastic mistakes, as so I heard.
And yea, beware of the rice you are eating. They might be recycled. Blame it on those who dun eat finish their rice.
light my way ♥
