Vestige of the Forgottens 321
Many students at my age may have never experienced this, actually today is
the first day, where i'll be working as a STUDENT.
Truly saying, i was quite nervous.
I went there and was sent back home, it was because I used black jeans as my pants, they didn't notice me to use a pant made of silk. I rushed back home and changed into
a silk one, and went back.
See, what a detour i made.
There was not even a single customer, OMG, i can't believe this.
It seems that i'm catching mosquitos there.
There was also a guy who came working at the same time as i am,
just he is 4 years older.
Everyone there treats me well, especially the old guy who resembles an African,
he told me how to serve customers, the proper etiquette, and manners.
He says, we have to leave a good impression on customers.
When i serve the customers, they have no attitude at all,
but CUStomers are
always right ryt?
and so i apologized and said i was a new guy who started working an hour ago,
and he simmered down.

That is actually i TIP i got from the Cambridge Exam on English Extended.
There was this essay about a guy telling his stories as a waiter.
IT says, a waiter have to dress smartly, remember to shave, show off proper etiquette,
use different language to chat with them if they are foreigners.
Most important, entertain them.
I took notice of everything, except one thing the essay didn't mention
A waiter has to stand from morning till night.
Imagine me myself standing from 11 till 9 P.M.
One more thing, working hours is 10 hours from Monday to Friday, Saturday and Sunday, 12 hours, NO OFFS/ breaks given.
Compared to samson's job, working hours is 6 hours from Monday to Friday. Saturday and Sunday 8 hours, Off is given once a week.
I decided to give up this job, haha, that was what i intended.

After a while, i talked to the manager, and managed to change his mind.
Look at the results,
Working hours 7 hours from Monday to Friday, Saturday and Sunday 8 hours.
Offs are given once a week.
Haha, I'm so good at bargaining.
My legs are so swollen. GOSH.
And this is the story of my first day at WORK.
Distance hearts when rejoined as one,may find the light within
5:54 AM.
