d marquee! ; Monday, March 26, 2007 00:45
i was finally back to working after a long break before my ite final term exams. when i wasn't redeployed for my ph, i asked liang sheng whether he had job vacancies. so came along this, though it ate up my sunday afternoon. 4-11pm and $6.50 an hour is not bad too.
the venue was downtown east, pasar ris. the event was held at "d marquee", or the big white tent beside wild wild wet. it's somehow joined with aranda. some waiter job where we had to serve the dish, CUT FISH, and portion the servings for the people.
today's event was - PREMIER ANNUAL DINNER AND DANCE 2007.
all of the invites were taxi drivers, most of a relative older age. to say the least, it is a very fun job, though you are required to stand throughout your course of work, making it tiring. BUT THE PEOPLE WERE SO NICE! omg. something that has to be there to make time pass faster. I DID have second thoughts about working there when it was early and we were practically rotting away. but i put that aside when we were required to serve the dish. a skill was needed to cut the fish, and still make it look NORMAL TO EAT.
we were actually required to portion the noodles using a fork and spoon with one hand! lucky there was not enough time so it was self-service. (:
but anyway, i really enjoyed my first day of work there. and i would be looking forward to work there again! get to know the really nice people, girls and guys..
