22.3.10

Phewphewwhewwwww what a word to start with, yes, i am sighing. What a week! You know, i work 6days a week, 8 hours a day. Okay not much for exhausted-ness. But still my body feel ache here and there every moment i reached home. I like working from 3pm-11pm, because by the time i reached home, i can go to sleep. That is my sleep time, and i can wake up late. How i hate working from 11pm-7am, penat gila okay. And mengantuk. And menakutkan. And menyeramkan. And membosankan. And membanyak kerjakan. Really. Time ni la baru stock nak sampai, nak restock barang semua. And mungkin akan berdepan dgn kaki-botol, or kaki-tin-royal stout. Yep, there was one uncle ni, from 1am until 7am mcm tu kan, keluar masuk beli. and the 7th time he came in, pintu pun dah tak nampak. Ingatkan tunggu kat luar sebab nak bagi hilang mabuk, rupanya lepas tu masuk beli lagi. And the next day i work at the same shift, he was still wearing the same shirts. Yuks. *sigh* working at 24hours convenience retail store is not as easy as you may think. Especially with the post of becoming the next trainee manager. I have to face the store manager, field manager, and the worst is area manager. The upper the position, makin mengada lah perangai. Sampai sekarang i haven't met the area manager, or so-called bapak tiri. Dia tengking aku, aku buat bodoh je, I've experienced. heh. I've to do all the basic stuffs, from cleaning the window, ada la dekat 9 tingkap kena wipe inside out, then kena sweeping, mopping. Paling tak best la semua tu. That's why I hate morning shift, I have to make sure every single things are 100% done and perfect. *bunuh diri*

The best things being there are the chances of looking others life and think about it. Like, I've seen a family, not so rich, but i guessed they're not living as well as we are now, where the father was craving for Magnum[read:ice-cream], and the mother was for something-i-don't-remember-what-it-was, the son was thinking of buying a comic which cost RM6.50, pretty cheap for some of us right, and the daughter wanted a bar of chocolate. The total cost of those things was almost RM15, but they only have RM12 something, and the son wanted to give up one his comic, but the father said "Jangan, biar ayah tak ambil ais krim ni", he was willing to sacrifice his craving, for his son. I mean, looking at the father's face, when he couldn't manage to fulfill every needs including himself, is so frustrating, so a wake-up call for me. It was so sad okay. Where I sometimes begging mak and abah for something that I don't really need, and wasted it later, to realize that some people out there, don't even have the chances to buy things, they can only watch. And, I was thinking, what 'the pakcik' feel that time, maybe he 'tasted' the Magnum; the moment when he intended to buy it, and then he had to forget it for the sake of his son's happiness.

In whatever work you're doing, no matter how much 'hates' you have in it, just think that there might be some good out of it. Maybe a lesson, maybe a good attitude. Maybe some bad example that you shouldn't follow. The good and bad leadership. Kaki kipas punya orang.


Love,
7Eleven new employee
