First day as waitress

18th June, 2009, Sunny

My first time work as waitress. Hmm…interesting topic hah? A girl that never really go out to work finally have to find her own work and go to a far place by herself to work. Yeap, that is me. It is a bit scary when I am on the journey to come to Yeovil. I scare will miss the bus, scare will get on the wrong bus, and scare the job is totally a cheating. Haha…you don’t know how relief I am when I arrive the restaurant and it is ‘REAL’. Goodness, I worry so a lot before this. Haha…

Well, now talk about my first day working. I am quite a mess at first because I never work as waitress before. I do not know waitress job description and what I can do is asking what should I do and do whatever the senior asking me to. Well, my daily tasks are clean cupboard glass and also door, sweep the infront door and stairs, serve customers, tidy customers table like take away plates and glasses they do not need to use anymore. At night, I have to sweep the floor and mop it. Well, it heard like hmm….easy and a few to do but it is really so tiring after a day. My feet, gosh, really killing me. They feel so pain and almost numb already. It is really so hard to stay until all the tasks are finish and close restaurant. However, I am really so grateful that there are coworker to help around.

It is quite a fun and interesting job to me besides the tired and feet pain part. Haha…it is fun to serve customers and meet all new people. After finish my work, I just have one thought in my mind. Faster bath and then go to sleep, however, there is something make me change my mind. Our coworker, John, asking Jenny to go out to pub. Ohh ya, haven’t introduce Jenny. She is my roommate and also senior that teaches me to work. She is China girl and she is quite nice person. Okay, finish the introduce part, let’s back to pub part. When we want to buy drinks and get into a pub, they ask for our ID. Do we not look like mature enough to go into pub and buy drinks? Gosh, so funny..we have to go back to restaurant to take passport and I choose to take my international student card but the guard said next time bring passport. Haha…so funny lahh bring passport go to pub…haizz….

I tried Archers lemonade and it is a bit bitter but quite tasty and then I have Smiroff Ice. Well, it is okay but it makes my face flushing. Haha….John has quite a lot of friends at the pub and they keep on coming and saying hi to us. Hmm, actually mostly are boys and it is quite awkward to me because I am not used to chat will boys that just know, especially those in pub. When we go to dance floor, John’s friend, I don’t know what his name already came to approach me and take me to dance. Gosh, you know what he dance? A dance that two people so close to each other and well, say I am grandma, but I just can’t get used to it. I felt so embarrassed and wana run away . John thought I don’t like white people…haha..but do you think I will tell him that I scare so close with boys because I never so close with boys? Dear dear, so funny…a night and a few boys come close to me to dance, but me, this so virgin girl, so scare until asking for help. Haha…

Anyway, it is really so funny and scary at the same time. Anyway, my feet pain really killing me now and it is so good to get into my cosy bed and rest. Nite nite^^
