i finally ended my misery on e 26th january. i've been pondering on e question on continuing with my work at indochine. Done some reflecting on e pros and cons and even asking opinions from my close friend. Seems like e odds are against me working there. Working there has been a torment for me as i felt unhappy. I could not blend in well with the people there which resulted me in being quiet. its quite controversial as i m a mass comm student and i'm supposed to be good at it especially i've studied social behavioural studies -.- My job is assigned to being a food runner, which i hate because u dont learn much from it except cleaning filthy smelling cutleries and learning how to place plates on tables properly. Reason for being a food runner? :" u r too quiet, and u move too slow." RIGHT. i've even played down my ego and asked for a chance to prove my worth and get a shot at being a REAL waiter. It seems to fall on deaf ears. They continued with me being the food runner and occassionally me going onto the floor. I was on e brink of fustration and nearly walked off while on e job. It was pretty synchronised and my friends came into the picture. My friends began hanging out pretty often compared to the past where they game all day (no lifers! *u know who u r!*). They started calling me out and i began enjoy the life i was having. Anyway, it justified my reasons to quit the job. U cant have e best of 2 worlds, balancing between friends and work can be v strenous. Afterall, i'm just a kid right?
Thanks guys for giving me "LIFE!" and it better be good cos i've made a decision to stick with u all! I guess its a decision i wont regret. "regret wad u have not done but not wad u had done." quoted from stanley peh (XXXX~2005)
