Saturday, May 19
sweet coffee aroma.
Let me describe my day at work.
I reached damn early, wrong choice.
I had to help open the shop, carry tables outside sweep the floor mop the floor etc.
I had to work with uncle (boss's dad) cause its arab street.
i have no idea why my boss wants to locate the store there.
On the right, indian money changer.
On the left, indian textile seller.
This outlet's not bad. Working with uncle also not bad.
I kinda like it cause he's always running about leaving me alone in the store.
but bad thing was, time passed like snail speed.
Half the time, i was sitting on the wooden bench outside watching people pass by.
Uncle was nice, he bought me teh tarik (however you spell it)
So uncle went into the store and sat while i sipped the teh tarik outside and continue to watch people pass by.
I don't know if its me or him or the teh tarik, the indian uncle also went to get a packet of teh tarik. Came back with it, lifted it up and said "cheers".
I was like.."err, cheers!" Then he said something i couldnt figure out and went back inside.
So after that, about 5 more hours to kill.
I went inside to look for uncle cause i was so bored.
You know the store has an open concept.
The outside, main store, toilet, office and storeroom all linked.
No need to open any doors, just walk in.
So i walked in, uncle was using the com in the office.
Then when he saw me, he quickly closed whatever he was doing.
Hmmmmmmmm.
Went back outside to sit.
I get paid for just sitting there and wasting time. Not too bad actually.
Oh, in the middle of the shop, there's this fish bowl obviously with fish in it.
I named them molly one two and three.
I think they're guppies.
You know when you go to pet shops, they always state that you cannot tap on the tanks.
So i went to try and tap at the glass bowl and molly one two and three reacted quite frantically.
Got me entertained for a while.
After which i got bored, i kept feeding them.
Lets hope they don't end up dead by tomorrow morning.
Opposite there's this shop selling shoes.
You know those beaded shoes for tai tais. 600 over bucks for one pair.
Madness. I won't pamper my feet this way.
Oh and another store grandfather's collection.
I went to check it out and they sell really old stuff.
From bubbles to tops to marbles to records.
I like (:
I know since thursday i was whining about not wanting to work at that outlet.
But actually it turned out pretty fine. Cause every shop closes damn early there.
So i get to knock off hours earlier than usual. Hoho.
Oh, and uncle gave me a lift home. That's really really nice.
Ferfer is working at parkway now and i'm going to find her now.
And bring that regular back to my home so she can start messing up my room.
Then meet loh min fei for supper! (:
Oh yea, i killed quite some time cam whoring in the shop too.
Cause it had a pretty wallpaper.
Hereit is.
Me for all of youl. Muaha (:
