10.50pm

I'M HAVING DINNER NOW.
omg. Today was tiring.

And morning had me saying "WHAT THE FUCK" when I was trying to hide from some people.

Ok so my job, is to give out sweets............ when there's nobody in the shop.
Then try to sell the sweets when the customers are in the shop. Give recommendations, answer questions... do stock taking, er, mop the floor...
Then the manager said some stuff about Customization but I cannot remember anything. So many different prices. Wrap the bottles if the customers want to~
And sometimes, people just want to buy stuff on display like.. for example, a bottle of sweets in a lantern. That's not exactly something on sale... Then I don't know how to respond to that sort of stuff.
And I'm the only sales assistant in there.

Sometimes, I'll have to translate to Chinese since some people only speak/understand Chinese. Thank God the manager was there. I forgot what was lime in Chinese and all the different berry flavours.. I didn't know how to translate!!!!

The staff in the shop don't really talk to me. They're all adults. Oh wells.
But the staff over at OCBC and Japanese Gourmet Town are friendly. I like the woman at OCBC HAHAHA She should be in her twenties and she was talking to me, asking me why I'm always outside and how come my working hours are so long and stuff. And she thinks I should quit my job too. LOL

Lunch break was..... lonely. LOL But I don't really mind eating alone so I just listened to Pitbull and ate my burger.
There were these two boys who went to interview for a job position today and they saw me when I was having my loner lunch. HAHA
I told my manager "MMMM The two boys just now look damn small"
then he gave a reaction that I usually receive "WHAT? You calling them small?"
-.-
but I was right ok~ They were indeed kids waiting to get into Poly.

I think giving out sweets using the spoon kinda gave off the wrong idea. I think some people thought they had to eat using the spoon or something. Some aunties thought that way. Then just now, there were these three boys who rejected when I offered them the sweets. But then, they turned back again and one of them said "Ok, actually we want lah. But my friend is a bit shy." -.-
And his friend asked "So... are you going to feed me or?"
LOL

The music at the shop was on replay or something. NO JUSTIN BIEBER AT ALL. SERIOUSLY?
And I told that to the manager when he asked me for some feedback. I said JB might bring in more younger customers then his reply was "JUSTIN BIEBER MUST DIE" and "JUSTIN BIEBER IS A CHICK." 

"No no no no no Justin Bieber"
So.... at about 8 plus, everyone left the shop and I was ALONE. I was just worried that I wouldn't know how to reply to the customers' enquiries. But it was not that bad actually.
I could just stand outside the shop, with a bottle of candies in my hand and sing to whatever that was playing in the shop.

The people who took the sweets are mostly................. children I guess?
I normally skip the elderly, boys and men who look damn buff. LOL
Elderly because some will tell me "Oh. I cannot bite." HAHAHA DAMN CUTE.
Then boys can be quite irritating, when they are in groups.
Men who are just buff? Nothing, I just don't want to feel to small I guess.

The manager asked me this just now "So.. we are going to launch our Valentine's Day special soon. Are you going to buy for anyone??"
"HUH? Nope? I'm single!"
and he gave me the ~are you seriously single~ "WHAT?"
:S

GG dropped by just now and bought a bottle of sweets. Like omg, he relieved me of a few minutes of boredom. At least somebody was talking to me. OCBC was already closed and the lady went home already............................

Another full day shift tomorrow. Then half on Friday and...... I'm supposed to tell the manager my schedule for next week.
