it've been a long time since i last blogged. i've been quite busy these days. On Monday, i went for training at Queenstown frm 9am to 5pm. When i reached there, i didn't expect to see so many youngsters! i was shocked but relieved as i'm not the only one going for this training. :) Almost more than 30 people turned up for the training. In the end, the training starts at ard 9.30 due to some confusion. Our trainee is called Samantha. I'm not sure whether i'm imagining things too much or what but i kept thinking that Samantha looks and acts lyk MISS KAREN TAN!!! :D i can't believe it! You know, the way Samantha speaks is exactly lyk Miss Tan, even the way she scolds us is exactly the same as Miss Tan!! Omigod!! This's going to be a disaster! That's not all for me! Samantha started by having icebreaker which is self-intro. Being so unlucky that day, i was the FIRST one to self-intro myself!! So i standed up, feeling nervous, i said out my name, age and which branch i'm frm. Before i could finish, she stopped me and asked this particular boy sitting right at the back whether he could hear me or not. Guess what, that stupid guy said, 'No!' So in the end i've to repeat one more time. Finally when i finished, she told me,'Hey! Next time speak louder leh! You cant expect a ______ to speak so soft, you know!' Then others continued to self-intro themselves until some newcomers came in. That Samantha said,'Since we've some newcomers coming in, we shall have the icebreaker game one more time!' WHAT!!! I'VE TO SELF-INTRO MYSELF AGAIN! This is going to my 3rd time i'm self-intro myself! i was so pissed with that woman. She looks so irritating.
anyway after the stupid icebreaker finally ended, we watched 2 super duper boring videos abt Singapore's history and _____'s history. By the way, what is the use of watching this? Is it in case a customer come up to you and ask you what is the history of Singapore? Of course not lah! you think ppl so free ah!
the only part of the training which i enjoyed most was the tea break and lunch break. that is the only time where i was freed finally. :) The lunchtime was frm 12noon to 1pm so i went to the nearby hawker centret to have my lunch. After lunch, there was more boring ppt slides and more lectures by Samantha. She gave us group discussion for us to brain-storm some things. i finally managed to bond with the ppl sitting at the same table. there was 7 of us. There were Rashirah, Jie Ying, Ruby, Letchimi, Kok Wee and Sock Hoon. :) i still can remb their names. All of them are same age as me except for Rashirah who's currently in Anderson JC. Her secondary school was Cedar Girls'. :) i began to find that they are very friendly to make friends with.
the group discussion was followed by customer service by the manager of the company. She's called Dorina! i tell you i really dont know is it becos i missed the teachers in Crescent or what but i find that Dorina looks and acts lyk MISS PENNY ANG!!! Omigod!!! But Dorina looks better than Miss Ang. No offence, Miss Ang! :) Dorina began to tell us her experience when she experienced bad customer service. She told us that she was a military woman long ago b4 she became a flight stewardess with Cathay Pacific for 12 yrs. So we started to calculate how old is she. then we guess she's 45 le. then she said her age is always a secret and will not reveal it! Whatever!! anyway she told us that if anyone of us wants to be a flight stewardess, plz dont ever do that auntie job! guess what, when she was a flight stewardess, whenever the toilet bowl got chocked up, she had to dig up the faeces and some disgusting stuff out. Omigod!! i didnt believe that a flight stewardess need to do this kind of things. Then she said those who want to be one, need to learn how to control their emotions at times. She said she had girls running to her crying saying that passengers scolded them using vigour language. Whoa!! i'll neva be one even if i have the chance. :)
anyway the training ended at 6 instead of 5 due to Dorina who talked so much! anyway yesterday i bought the OP shoulder bag at United Square's OP store. i'm not sure if it looks nice but i just bought it in the end. the usual price was 36 bucks after discount, it cost 28.80 bucks.
shall sign off le, mapling now! bb!!
