-When Hazel takes over the Bar
HAHAH! THAT WAS FUNNY. Hazel was asked to do at the Bar and that meant that she needed to prepare desserts, drinks etc. There was once when she was asked to do "Ice-cream with brownie" Well, she didn't know how to do it and she asked me. We took some time to prepare that dish. HAHAH! Hazel would have served the brownie "COLD" if we hadn't asked the manager about it. After heating the brownie, Hazel "Balanced" a scoop of ice-cream on the brownie. I do mean "BALANCE". THE ICE-CREAM WAS ROLLING ON THE BROWNIE! LIKE OMG. I was the UNLUCKY SERVER. So I had to ensure that the ice-cream remained on the brownie throughout my journey - from the Bar to the customer's table. :S
-HAZEL'S FAILED BANANA SPLITS
I remembered once when a customer ordered "Split Banana" so I just told that to Hazel and she said "It's Banana Split". "HAHHA! I KNOW but that's what the customer wants." HAZEL had quite a number of failed ones and we ended up eating them ourselves. HAHHAAAH! :D
-When we feel hungry
When we feel hungry, we'll just steal food from the refrigerator. HAHHAHA! We took cheese cakes, watermelon, green apples, cherries, chocolate cakes, ice-cream, honeydew etc.
Whenever we do this, we have to ensure that we stay away - hidden from the camera. That brings me to the next topic
-BENJAMIN
Who's Benjamin? HE'S THE ONE WATCHING ALL OF US AT JACK'S PLACE.
There're quite a number of surveillance cameras in Jack's Place and well, it's said that Benjamin is the one looking at the screens. Yeah. THAT SUCKS. But I DON'T CARE. I JUST ATE IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA. Then I'll tell Hazel "Benjamin must be feeling hungry/ he must be jealous of us" HAHHAAH! :P
-WHO CAME UP WITH BENJAMIN BEING THE "SILENT GUARDIAN"?
MARGARET
-MARGARET'S WEIRD TEMPER
Well, Margaret hadn't been with us these few days because she took off-days. She's got this weird temper. REALLY WEIRD.
She can be really nice to us but she can be real mean. Take yesterday for example, she started praising both Hazel and I, saying that we're nice and obedient etc.
LESS THAN HALF AN HOUR LATER, she scolded Hazel and said that Hazel couldn't read the menu and that she's stupid :S But well, I had to tolerate her for the afternoon shift when Hazel wasn't around. She ordered me around, asking me to do something when I haven't even completed my previous task and so.. I was really irritated.
-MARGARET LOVES CUSTOMERS
She's got this habit of touching kids who come into Jack's Place. She'll touch their faces and call them "Dear". :S I feel sorry for them.
She's REALLY NICE to the customers. I heard that's why she's got so many badges on her collar (SO UNFAIR!)
-MARGARET LIKES TALKING TO US ABOUT HERSELF
Also, she always complain to us -the younger staff. Well, I just say "YEAH YEAH YEAH" whenever she talks to me. She'll come to us then put both her hands on our arms and say "You see, one side feels cold, the other don't. SIGH.. Blood circulation problem." After a while, she'll come back then start scolding again.
-MARGARET'S VOICE
is really soft. She always speak very softly such that you'll have to ask her to repeat what she just said and then she'll get fury. :S Yesterday, she was telling me about some friend's child who was working "susi" and I kept asking "WHAT?!" and she said "SUSI"
"HUH?!"
"SUSI AH! SUSHI!"
"OH...HHAHAHAA..OH... OH..."
-MARGARET SCARES US REAL BADLY
Margaret doesn't like going home on her own. She wants someone to walk her to the bus stop. Yesterday, she shouted "MEI MEI! WAIT FOR ME!"
Know what? WE ALL RAN. RAN OUT OF JACK'S PLACE.
It's kinda mean but seriously, would you want to walk with her? She might start scolding you all of a sudden.
Let's take a break from Margaret now, let's talk about the customers
-CUSTOMERS LOVE ASKING ME...
"How old are you?"
Then I'll say "16" and they start to say "OH.. SO SMALL! SO YOUNG!"
And well, I'll just laugh. HAHHAHA!
Today, there was some customer who kept saying that I'm small and that I'm unsuitable for such jobs because the plates are heavy etc. He asked me for my school, my nationality. and he said that I'll have difficulty finding a job because I'm so small. HAHHA! I just laughed along with them. That customer asked me an interesting question as I served the sour cream/bacon bits/chives onto the potato. He asked me "What if she (his wife, I presume) doesn't want the sour cream but you've already put it on?"
"HMMMM... WELL, I'LL EAT IT THEN. Because usually, I'll just serve all three unless the
customer tells me he/she wants only the sour cream or the bacon bits, whatever."
The customer laughed really hard so I just laughed along. HAHHA! :D
But my size do come to an advantage
-THE ADVANTAGE OF BEING SMALL
The customers won't get angry with you as often. Instead, they'll be more understanding towards you and they'll help you!
HAHHA! I'll always remember two groups of customers. One was a family. They were really nice to me and I remembered the time when I almost fell down while carrying the tray with glasses on it. The customers all leaned towards me with their hands stretched out, trying to catch me. HAHHA! But, I didn't fall because I got my balance. HAHAH!
The other group of customers was a group of men. Well, they helped me to serve their dessert when I was supposed to be doing it. They said that it was too heavy for me so they just took their dessert on their own and serve it to their friends. ;)
-BREAK TIME AT JACK'S PLACE
We all eat in the dark. HAHHA! That was one thing I found really funny.
-THE CANDLE INCIDENT
I remember that time when Margaret asked me to light up the candles using a lighter. WELL, she didn't know that I'm really scared of using a lighter. I touched the "hot" part when she handed the lighter to me and so, I said "OUCH!"
OMG. Know what? She told both Hazel and Vinus about my "accident". She even demonstrated my reaction to them. :S
