hello again...hows life pple...as some of you may know..me just quitted my waitressing job at watami ..that was like..last's night matter. i had gotten my pay on the 28 of feb..and so 'luckily'..the sucky boss which i have tolerated for a very long time scolded me and my friend for some tiny matter on the 29 of fed...which he did on the top of his voice until the whole resturant could hear, just becos he could not vent his anger on the other more senior staff working there..he thinks his part time staff are block heads that will continue to work there for him after he makes the statment that they are all dumb and that their service is like shit...who will want to continue to work for a boss who treats u like a dog and kick you around for fun and whenever he is not in a good mood. scolding the staff including the manager in front of your guests, your wife, your six kids, and commenting on their stupidity is simply the last straw one can take...most of the staff gave their two weeks notice yesterday for resignment, while me, the most lucky one being a part timer could just pack my bag and leave since i did not sign any contract...of course i finished wat i was paid to do...since i took the pay already

if not for the boss..i would have continued to work there..but hey since everyone is leaving sooner or later..why not make a move first..since the results are coming out soon..can make use of the break to settle of the bits and pieces of preparation for U... and of course spend more time with my family and friends...
but how can i forget the great bunch of friends i have made over there...

-clare - the captain, like a sister and mother to me..me being one of the few pple over there who can understand and stand her ways...haha...will always remember our days when we went to sushi lunch buffet twice in three days..sushi don for the chopstick flinging tuna sashimi..and jaw dropping lunch at ichban boshi at the esplanade...and of course our chocoholic days when we both get real moody and stuff ourselves with family-size choc bars and cups of hot choc and coffee..

-zhongwei gege- the ever chubby kitchen boy who is always raped by the gay chefs of the kitchen. and always teased by others to be in a relationship with any female staff..even the dishwasher aunty..

-ernest papa the sushi chef-the papa who looks like a japanese and is strict with his daughters, me and clare..but melts immediately when ever we call him papa and prepares his daily morning coffee for him..he is also the one who pain stakingly teach the waitress and waiters the japanese names of the fish and also the one who have to stand all our nonsense and stupid questions...and always happy to receive the cartoons i draw for him to bring home to his real daughter to colour..

-roland ah kong- the main chef..some one who is 50 years old but still cool enough to mix around with his 'grand daughters' to sushi buffets...prepare tempura icecreams for us...go for ten dollar hair cuts with us at marina square..take us to expensive sushi restuarant for lunch to show us real jap crusine...sit at starbucks for coffee with papa and us and even go with me to breadtalk and marketplace to buy bread and coffee...haha..

-jack and ah wah- two malaysian chefs who always rape and molest male waiters in the resturant..verbally harass female staff there...cook the best and most delicious staff meals ...and great singers of canto chinese and english pop..always trying to electricute pple with their beautiful eyes...

well to recall..there were many happy memories i had at the resturant...having met the fun loving bunch of young and old pple..going to work have never been that much fun that it doesnt seem like work... but too bad that the boss has such bad management skills...or should i say..the lack of it... it meant to be..that we will just become passerbys in each others' lives..too bad...life will go on

read the newspaper today...i'm sure if you read it..you would have noticed this quote ' some teachers make passing exams and getting good grades the only reason for learning, but our teachers show us that the reason for learning is to achieve our dreams'..i had not noticed it as an excerpt only until later ..but took notice of the line when i read the article...it struck me that hard that i read the line 4 times repeatedly as though i was trying to understand wat it meant but the meaning of the line had a stronger message than what it was trying to convey....
