My Drunkest Day...

It might not be the first time I drank alcohol but it certainly is my drunkest day. That Saturday, my manager, alex, organised a farewell party for the philippines staff who've been with Outback for the past one year. I've not been with them for a really long period, only about 3 months, but they're really all good ppl and good employees. Even now, I'm still kinda sad they have to go back because their attachment is over and they have to go back to school. Back to that day, we had free-flow of alcoholic drink...and of course I've had some Long Island and Tequila. And carlsberg after that. I went on top of the bar top dancing, although i didn't quite know how to dance. But well, just have fun man! and I dunno why i feel so sad that i cried, perhaps partly due to the stress and confusion I'm having for the past weeks --- worrying about school issue. The fact that i appeal for visual comm at tp and they told me it was unsuccessful because I've accepted the course offered to me. I mean, "wad the fuck is that?" and I've applied for laselle and have to go for an interview which i didn't know if i can make it at that time, and i didn't wanna withdraw from the course I've enrolled in tp and ended up with no where to go. I was really confuse back then and i cried really hard...luckily there was Jordan, one of the 4 going back to phillippines. He talked alot to me and i felt much better after that...sitting on the bar, spilling all my worries out. Even after I've told that my interview was successful after going for the interview yesterday, I'm still confuse. Because my father dun hav so much money for me to attend school in Laselle-SIA. And keep wanting me to go appeal through my useless Jurong GRC's MP again tomorrow night. And i had to withdraw from my course either today or tmrw. Because next monday is the start of the school term already and the service centre dun operate on Saturday and Sunday. I guess I'll just go withdraw tmrw. Anyway, I really enjoyed that day, dancing, drinking, talking, and of course...vomiting...everyone had fun i guess, and Snow really crap alot that day, and keep telling ppl he's not drunk and slapped many ppl. HAHA. But was expected, after having 20 oz of Long Island...and lots of Tequila, Vodka......lol. I still remembered he said that although he had no girlfriend, but he has alot of good friends...haha. I guess that's true, girlfriend isn't really that necessary, perhaps a crush is enough...I'm really feel bad i left them so early, at about 4am, but I was really having strong headache. And I really didn't feel like quitting anymore after that day. But after I was once again chased away by our proprietor, Sooria, who has returned from US, yesterday when i went to Outback. He could have just told us not to talk to the other staffs. But instead, he told us to leave if we weren't eating anything. I dunno how he can become or even have the professionalism to become a proprietor, I guess it's all by relation...As in all our bosses from all over the countries all Blacks, indian, Da Bian, or wadever u call them. I really am racist, i know. But that's me, and I'll just call him Da Bian Wang as long as i want to. Man, I really hate him. Hypocrite, only know how to PLP to customers. Wad a fucker...I don't care how sad is his life but I just hate him. And the sales of our restaurant hasn't been good, and to the extend that it's really nv been that bad, ever since he came back... I guess all the bad luck is with him. Sigh, i really enjoy working without the pressence of him. I kept telling us that our pressence will affect the other staffs and disrupt them. But in actual fact, It's his very own pressence that will affect the staff's working attitude and abilities. It's like you'll think twice when you see mugs that are not on your table uncleared, whether to help clear them or not. In other words, if you treat us like a family, we'll feel much better helping you. Like he used to ask me to help him with something on my lunch time, but i just told him i had to eat, in a very rude manner, and just went out of the restaurant. If he had treated us like a family, i might just help him. Really dunno if i want to continue working there anymore......

Sigh...so much things happening......

Once again...

Once again, i've gone back to Outback when it's my off day(monday, yesterday). I went back and had lunch with other servers(waiters) on their break time...Then when they started work, I sat on the bar drinking my jug of "best-friend's" ice lemon tea...lol, by our dearest Snow(Snorlax, wei chien). He's well-known for his skill of making lemon tea...lol. And just help them abit by doing some roll-up. We then went to hav supper together and chat till 1st train in the morning...haha...which is the time i always get to know something more between some of them...like for example, get to know that our dear Snow used to be quite a perfect guy but had changed becoz he realised he always sorta get took advantage by his friends.

Sigh...I really hope someone can decide everything for my sometimes. Ah...feel like crying when typing this. I'm very confuse whether which course to take. I was posted to product design in tp, but now am waiting for my Member of parliament to get me into visual comm. But I know the chances can be very slim. And the school will start real soon and i need to withdraw out b4 that. I wanted to tell my father if I can't get into visual comm in tp, can i just go to laselle, and he will pay the poly amount, while i pay the outstanding amount for going to laselle. But i really dunno if i should. Becoz next time if i come out being unsuccessful, my father might just say i should hav took product design and not go into laselle which i MYSELF chose to. I know my interest should be with visual comm, but many ppl told me that product design can earn quite a decent amount next time and i really dun wish to earn very little. But after years doing DNT in secondary school, I'm kinda sick of it and running out of ideas for product. Damn, There are so many restrictions. So much specifications...

Why can't things just go smoothly and let me get into visual comm in tp in the 1st place so that i dun hav to choose...AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Everything seems to UNSMOOTH, WHY? Hope i can have a smooth relationship next time...haha, which seems to be impossible...IF only there's this remote control that can let us tune our own life. Hmmmm, that'll be great.

Last of all, thank you for reading my post...and listening to my crap...really thank you for spending time to read my blog, whoever you might be.

Thanks

Working at Outback...

Working at Outback steakhouse(millenium walk) seems to be more than just a simple part time job...Don't know what's it that makes us go back to Outback even if it's our off-day. I'm not the only one, but alot of people seems to go back even when it's their off day. And yesterday we secretly went to our manager's(alex) house without Bob(one of the waiters) knowing. Just to give him a birthday surprise...hiding inside our manager room...throwing eggs at Bob...(at least seeing them doing that) and watching them play boxing at the nearby park...wahaha, quite fun. Makes me even more not wanting to quit this job. Actually quited long time ago. And said goodbye to everyone, even our proprietor...then was called back to work...wah damn pai seh lor...everyone ask, i thought you quit already? Then still tell everyone my last day...wah lol..

Thanks
