since yesterday i've been working from 7.30am to 4pm. it's really tired to just stand and without sitting for straight. legs are sore as i have to carry heavy stuff and walking up and down to collect plates from tables and serving customers. but one thing that im happy with is that i get to meet with customers as i always get to talk to them and know how their day are.
it seems like im the only worker left to serve the customers. yi jing left to shanghai yesterday and im beginning to miss her as she's such a good companion in working. at least i got someone to talk and laugh with. not to say that my other colleagues are lousy lah and i love them too as they really care for me a lot. just hope that teresa will be back to work soon but she can't work for long hours too as her parents are here for her graduation. congrats, teresa!
my boss will be back next week from their trip to china. then i might have to work less hours as there's not many customers anymore only during the peak period time which is around 12pm to 2pm. usually at this time we don't have enough people to work. plus my boss don't plan to hire so many people as to save cost for their new house. it's really a selfish thinking actually. we only get paid $8 an hour and other people get paid between the price of $10 to $16 an hour. im definately not going to work there if i get to find somewhere with much higher pay.
this week is going to be a very tiring week for me as i have to be out of bed at 6.15am. i've never wake up that early since i came to brisbane. dragging myself out of the bed seems so impossible but then i still have to do it so that i won't be late. yesterday i was almost late to work as i woke up at 7.10am and was rushing to call my colleague to pick me up if not im definately going to be late. luckily she haven't left the house which gave me some time to take a bath. taking bath makes me awake so that i don't fall asleep too easily. hehe... excuses! just because i forgot to set the alarm ringing but only set the time. didn't even realize it. was lucky that i was able to wake myself up.
just hope that weekend will reach soon so that im able to get my pay and hang out with my friends. going to buy some formal clothes for simon's graduation besides that im also able to attend some of my other friends graduation whose studying engineering. plus im going to dreamworld too. yeah! hmm... i wonder when will that be because we haven't set a date for it. but still i can't wait for it. hehe...
