♥ hot title:Now i pity Hyatt Workers.
I just reached home this morning at 3am.. Because of i had over-time..OT.. the manager lied..Totally. He told me that we only had to work til 12.30 when our work usually ends at 11.30 instead, we finished at 2. Luckily we had transport back.
Ok i will start from my first day of work.. Met Ricky at orchard MRT station with Hong Zhou. Hong Zhou and I with a few others then followed him to Hyatt Hotel, got changed and started work without training.. SHOCKED.. we were immediately bought in to a room where there were people already seated!. and so from here, i guess you all should know that i'm working in banquets... which means, serving people their food and drinks. Then in the night, there was a Wedding Banquet. and so, proud to say that i managed to carry the First course which was the platter on my shoulder and walked in with the music... it was similar to any other wedding.. Thank god i did not drop the food =) and so the serving continues.. "Girl, can i have red wine please.." "Hot water.." "Chilli sauce" "Packet this for me please" That day which was my first day was a tiring day. My legs felt that it was .. like i was stepping on stones.
Second day, we had to arrange tables, Set up the table cloths, It's not just one stupid table cloth you know.. It's like one full length table cloth, then another short table cloth then runners..the long but slim cloth to be placed across the table. Place utensils, arrange chairs.. then at 7.30 another wedding.. i had to serve cocktail. i had like 3 drinks on my tray. I HATE it when people just take the drinks without my knowledge because when that happens, my tray will be unbalanced.. then the drinks will go spilling everywhere. EEuuk.. so when everybody got seated, the tables i served were the most troublesome people in my entire working life.. hahas.well, i haven't seen others larh.but just saying. cause, this man asked for red wine. so i walked walked walked.and queued up for the wine cause apparently many workers were also queuing for drinks. so i went back and his partner saw that there was wine and so he asked me for another and the process continued. when i went back the man's wife asked for another one!.. STRANGLE THAT MAN SOMEONE! but we worked til 11.30 after cleaning up the place, like clearing the extremely filthy plates, removing the heavy table cloths.. then the manager asked me to do Overtime and he said will end at 12.30.. so i was thinking.. What was another hour? even my legs still hurt from my first day of work. extra pay somemore and people will send me home.. HE LIED! Those who stayed overtime worked til 2 in the morning.. i was the only girl there apparently and the guys won't let me touch the Suzanne.. the round glass which can spins well cause it's heavy.. and so i cleaned 100 drinking glasses with one pathetic small cloth. and we went back.
through these 2 days, Hong Zhou took care of me..thank you=) he stayed back to wait for me when he didn't have to work OT.. thanks..
and now, MY WHOLE BODY ACHE.. back to sleep.
