Y hard to trust..
today i earned 36bucks, and it's really hard-earned money. it was a sad day. scary day. because i was the runner, for the first time. as in, 100% runner, and not those half-half that kind. duh..
yay. skipped dinner before work, and i greatly regretted that as i don't really had energy to work after that. ramesh assigned tables today. oh, zhe bin was on mc today, that's why he didn't turned up. i hate ramesh today. :x he gave me a quite-new girl, nina, as my partner. i dared not complain anything, because i'm sure ramesh will sure be sarcastic if i did. so yay, i kept quiet and prayed hard for a smooth night ahead. i went to serve cocktail aftermath. it's so tiring okay. oh ya, i've got a new WIFEY!!! haha, she's phoebe. she calls me hubby and muacks me each time she sees me. so cute! haha, and nancy's my aiai. wah, i'm such a flower-hearted carrot 'cause i have many wifes. HAHAHAHA. kidding..
oh, i saw my relative today. aunt celeysn's brother, xiang ge. he came for his friend's wedding dinner. haha, we both were shocked to see each other, and we exchanged a few words then i went back to work. door opens at 7.45pm, and i was the usher at the door. after awhile, i went back to my tables to check the drinks before we have to go pick up first course. ohwells. the side station near to me was zhiling, nancy and susan. they did 3-to-3. but because the reserved table luhua was serving wasn't opened, so luhua was swapped over and zhi ling went over to partner aunty mary at the other end.
initially, i did rather okay with the oval trays. the sharks fins, buddhi picked up for me and i picked up my plates myself. and the 3rd course, i picked up myself, but i think because i didn't carry properly so i sorta sprained my back, again. zhi ling bumped into me when i'm on my way back to my station, he put down his tray and took over my tray to help me. from then on, the next course onwards, he offered to pick up for me before he picks up his own. buddhi helped too. THEN, after zhi ling landed my fish course, i carried it off to start portioning. after i got one off the tray, and had wanted to move the other further in so as to balance on the stand. then i think i didn't balance it in time, then the entire platter fell to the ground! i was in shocked. lu hua and buddhi all came over to help me clean up. samsi went to the kitchen to get another fish for me. nobody scolded me or anything, 'cause i know they understand. HOWEVER, i'm still in shocked. zhi ling heard about that and came over to apologise to me, for not landing properly, which wasn't true! that guy just can't stop blaming himself the whole night. li'e and nnp heard about it and came over as well. they guessed i'd cry. i did lah, but nobody saw, except zhi ling. scary okay... sigh.
after that incident, everyone's so helpful towards me. lu hua helped me prepare all the next courses' plates/bowls, just like last night. but tonight was tougher for him, because he already had 3tables of plates to take, plus my 2tables total will be 5tables. he didn't complain at all and was really willing to help me. and ya, zhi ling helped me with the pick up still. so all i did was to portion and carry those dirty plates oval trays in. one thing i don't like about my partner was that, after she cleared the plates, she just dumped everything on the oval tray, with the bones and stuffs all over. everything's not properly stacked somemore. then each time i carried in, i've to sort everything out myself before i carry in. double job lah. nehneh de.
finally. dinner ended. the last few trays are always the heaviest. knowing that, zhi ling automatically came over to help me carry everything in. omg. :/ then turnover was simple, as all we had to do was to refresh everything. after i'm done, i went to the backlane to help benedict with the showplates. wah lao, benedict really reminds me of jae! :/
anyhows. we were all signed out at 12mn today. no OT at all. ramesh owed luhua 1hr pay, so his voucher was signed out at 1am and he had to take 1.30am transport. we accompanied him and took the 1.30am transport too. while changing, nnp and i were playing SM in the toilet. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! :x riight, lu hua took our vouchers for us, so we went to the canteen to meet him. sat around and chatted. then went to wait for the transport. took the same transport as stephenie and we chatted a little. yay.. reached home only at 2ish and i'm oh-so tired. my left arm is totally numbed. this proves that i can't be a 100% runner at all.
tonight is a sad night. sigh. frankly, i am moved by all his doings and sayings, but i really can't pass my own personal stage. moreover, i don't know what is right and what is wrong. i don't know who is true and who is not. i don't know who to trust. i find it hard to trust anyone. even my girls. things are changing. spinning. i feel weird. an outcast of the clique. was it them who changed or was it just me? sigh.. i seriously hate night times. zzz.
