WOT A DAY

A day with mixed feelings.

Well didnt manage to run today, had an interview at 2. Luckily had my cousin to accompany me, later i lose my way!!

Wad can I say. No evil malice intended, but the scene at Recruit Express was far from... yea nice. The first impression was quite horrid. I heard one of the staff plucking up the phone and talking rather rudely, saying sometime like tis :"So you want to work or not?!?!" Omg.

I got a pretty looking young lady, prolly just slightly older than me? Her name is Felicia Kwek. But beneath that seemingly fine appearance lies a fierce, competitive attitude. She didnt give me time to consider for a post, and she kpt bugging and pushing for a temp full time job which I am not interested in, rather Im looking for a parttime job. I was exasperated and said FORGET IT. Little did I know she would call me back again.

"Could you give me just a day to consider" I said.
"NO LA CANNOT LA WHY NEED SO LONG TML INTERVIEW" she replied.
''Ok how abt I call you back later at evening or night?"I asked, feeling very very scared as tho she was abt to jump out of the phone and eat me up.
"AIYA I KNOCK OFF ALREADY LA BY THEN"
Sia la.

Looks like those ppl are just after commission.
Looks like I shldnt go through agencies.

On the brighter note, I made friends with my cousin's friends. Luckily they were there. My cousin was from NP, his 2 friends were from NYP and SP, and Im from TP. Just lacking a guy from RP LOL. We hanged out at Wisma's Starbucks for like 3 hrs b4 I left. Its jus so relaxing chitchatting and joking and talking abt politics and life over a cuppa. Plus there were some babes on view so yea.

Thinking back, I feel that ultimately I still wanna find a job, not really for the $$$ but for that valuable work experience. Its more about knowing and experiencing the working environment more than anything else. Hence for me, parttime is the way to go so I can fulfil my other commitments.

Like running.
