Back to work @Candyshop
Initially, I was just sian about going back. The past two weeks when I worked at IT Fair and Jimmy's office just made me feel like time really passes so slowly when I'm at the candy shop. But I can't be that irresponsible and just make a sudden decision to quit my job - Unless I found myself another job?
So I went back. Late.
Not exactly my fault................ there was some miscommunication. The manager said I was supposed to report at 11am sharp because there was supposedly a meeting and the boss wants to talk to me
(I thought he was going to ask why I didn't work at the shop for close to two weeks). That was the first message but then later, I received another message, confirming my shift for the
evening so I was a little confused but since the latest message mentioned "evening", I thought I was starting work at 4.30pm.
+ I woke up at 10.50am -.- because my phone died and the alarm didn't go off
I just sat on my bed and stoned, like....... what to do now~
Well, the manager asked me to cab down to Vivo and he'll pay for the cab fare.
It was about 6 bucks but he gave me ten and asked me to keep the change. I guess it was because he felt like it was his fault for the confusion, which resulted in me rushing down to work.
New manager
There was this lady - supposedly the new manager. At first I was a little freaked out because well, my work at the candy shop's been pretty slack (because the manager is also quite slack HAHA). I didn't know if this new manager will be like........ superenthu when it comes to pushing sales -->which is not my style of promoting either.
To my surprise, she's really nice and we talked a lot. She seemed more like a working partner than a superior. The new manager came out of the shop to give out candies as well and I told her it felt a funny since she's like my boss...................... but she said I'm more like her senior since I've worked in the shop longer than she did (two days). We really just stood outside and talked while we gave out candies - talked about marriage
(because she mentioned she was 25 and it reminded me of what I was talking about with A and R yesterday - How 25 is the ideal age to get married HAHA), work related stuff, cute guy from Citibank and alot of random stuff. She knows how sian it is for me to be out here and get ignored by people so she'll ask me to go into the shop to help her do some random stuff/just stand around/act busy so that time can pass by faster. And she used the f-word a few times HAHA
How cool is my boss~
And did I mention she's as small as I am? :D
She's around my height........... or maybe a bit shorter
(yeah~ yeah~ yeah~). She told me that the boss asked her to put on the uniform
(it's just this shirt with the name of the candy shop printed on it + jeans) and she refused to because she's already that small and she looks young...... She just wanted to look more like a employer than an employee - I told her I can understand how she feels HAHA
She knows she's small but she just doesn't want to look THAT small.
Woes of the small peeps~ LOL
How I still haven't got through probation
Ok so I received my pay for February. I calculated and I'm supposed to get at least 400 bucks - if my pay is still 5 per hour, it's supposed to be 6/hour after probation but I wasn't sure if I'm even through probation.
Part timers are supposed to get through probation after working for a month. I have no idea if they consider 30 days = 1 month (meaning you have to work for 30 days) or if I can work like 2 days/week but for the whole of Feb................
So I really have no idea but the manager said I'm supposed to be through probation so I was looking forward to getting a pay more than $400 but I got $400 + a few cents if that even counts.
The manager said he proposed for me to be done with probation but the boss didn't allow and he said the boss will explain to me.
And yep, the boss did explain to me but it all seemed like bullshit. He said he seen my sales records and that they were good.
Then why am I still on probation.........................
He said
"I think it's only fair that you'll get a pay rise since you've been working for some time"
Then why am I still on probation.................
"I'll propose it to my wife and see what she thinks about it. If she agrees, you'll get a pay rise at the start of April" --> AND THAT'S FOR APRIL'S PAY. Then what about March?!
I THOUGHT PROBATION WAS JUST FOR A MONTH????????????????
I really don't understand.
The manger doesn't either. And the new manager too.
They both felt like I should have earned much more. Together with the commission and stuff, I should be getting more. THEN WHY AM I NOT...........................
Well, the manager said he'll talk to the boss about it again. He says he wouldn't take down my break times
(because I'm supposedly not paid when I take breaks) so that I can earn more..
I don't know man but I just feel like, there should be some rules set from the start. If I were to tell my mum about this, I'm sure she'll just want to talk to the boss or something.
Pretty much embarrassing
Because I rushed to work today, I forgot to change my bra. Like I wanted to wear something of a pastel colour since the top is white but.. since I forgot, that meant I wore pink.
:S I hope it wasn't that obvious but actually it was.
The worst thing is only finding out after work. Or maybe it isn't THAT bad. If I were to look on the brighter side, I guess it means at least I didn't have to be that conscious while I was at work.
So very unfortunately, the shirt I brought to change after work was white as well. ZZ
I was so hungry after work and I was craving for the fried chicken from Shilin - and I just watched on some variety shows that people with big boobs eat a lot of fried chicken LOL
But then I didn't want to spend that much money since it'll be dinner time soon so I was thinking of blueberry waffles - Cheap and nice.
So it's between saving money and having bigger boobs.
Save money lah. HAHAHA
