Part Time Jobs


Hi friends,
Y'all are not expecting me to update so soon, right?right.
Jobs,this topic has been on my mind many times this year, and I have been engaged to it ever since the end of 2013.
My first job was in the Food and Beverage(F&B) franchise, and i found a decent job at a Subway near my house. I have to say that although i was a good girl and my boss respects me, a few of my managers were somehow very irritatingly bitchy just because i was a blur kid and they want things to be done THEIR way. Some of them even want to spark rivalry with me like wtf i never wanted to fight with anyone and just because i'm blur and stupid doesn't mean that i don't have a brain. I was treated rather well and I don't get bored while working in F&B as business is good there and I am kept busy during work. I also lost tonnes of weight while working there as the workload physically wore me out and by the time i reach home i end up plopping onto my bed and off to slumberland i go. After 6 1/2 months of working, i made the difficult decision to quit my job there as I wanted to focus on my studies and work has been disallowing me to do my projects at ease. Furthermore, i got sick of it and i want to try working at different franchises.
My second job(which is my current one), is a packing job which requires me to go there and pack stuff for a particular company. Though the salary seems satisfying and I can finally work in a legit air-conditioned area, i was extremely disappointed at the work life there. Not only is the location miserable(the place damn ulu please), but many of the employees there SPEAK CHINESE, AND I FREAKING HATE CHINESE TO THE CORE(i told many customers that i don't speak/understand Chinese and lied to my coworkers that I flunked my Chinese paper, which i did not i get consistent B's for it lmao).The last straw was how boring the job was i'd rather stay at home and nua all day rather than get used as cheap labor. I have sent a letter to the manager-in-charge and I'm praying to the heavens that he/she finds it legit enough to let me resign.#fingerscrossed
After this job, i'll promise that i won't work in packing/retail franchises as a part-time job ever again and go back to working in F&B. I much prefer the working environment there and time passes by quickly when I'm there. By working, I have also learnt how fortunate i am to have been given an education and the opportunity to go to school. I honestly don't mind being a student my entire life-your only job is to study and socialize, parents give you money to buy stuff, food in school is cheap and good, you can annoy the 'chers until they go nuts, and many more!:")
Finally and i kid you not, money is not easy to earn, at all. You can feel your heart breaking when all your hard work has officially been used to buy stuff, and just by one month of working, you only receive accumulated peanuts. For a shopaholic like me, it will never be enough.
That's all i have to say, til' then,
xx
