Serving V.V.I.P


I was very honored to be given the chance to serve the V VIP at Pejabat Majlis Perbandaran Sepang...A ahli mesyuarat parliment I think...Although I was just a newbie waiter, I have to prove to my colleagues that I am a quick learner...In just a week, I have served many VIP back at the Akademi Audit Negara...Also have served the Pengarah of Audit Malaysia himself...Heh...

The work at Sepang was not very tiring...I only have to serve 40 people max at a time including the VVIP...very easy indeed compared to 115 people back at the Akademi Audit Negara including the VIPs...the VVIP was not easies to handle as he was pleased with the service I have given...and not much hassle...as expected from a man of high standard...but the real hassle was from the staff of the Majlis Perbandaran Sepang itself whos a VVIP-wannabe...complained too much when others were satistified with the food I served...really hate those wannabe...

Same goes to some Akademi staffs...just by holding upper level of job in the office, which, for me, looked just like any other clerk...acting like a VIP...demanding extra service...demanding more than 2 waiters to serve them...complaining the presentation of food....I remembered how she said to me..."Kenapa potong buah macam ni? Macam nak bagi ayam makan jer..."....the potong-macam-kasi-makan-ayam style was practiced by many 5-star hotels as well as at the Istana...my seniors who made the food presentation, who had been serving in Istana already, only laugh to himself...non-VIP tried to be VIP...heheh... very lame...

Work - 2nd week


I'm getting used to the work that I am doing right now...the friends that I made at my work place were very sporting indeed...they were just like my old friends back at Kuantan...'gila-gila' type...

Above is a picture of two of my friends wrestling in the food hall itself...luckily there was no customer there right now...Hehe...they also played some pranks with me...nice...I got 'kene' everytime...heheh...Funny...very funny...

Also, the pain in my legs are getting better now...to stand 3 hours straight without sitting was very painful...It took me 3 days to get used to the pain itself...Now, heheh not even a bit of pain...

Here is the image of the place I used to get some sleep...My boss also encouraged me to get a decent sleep after serving the customers...although not a bed of roses, but for me, it was indeed a bed of roses...heh...XD

Work - 1st day


The very first day I went to work...Phew just so glad to be back in one piece...I thought my work was only to serve food to people as I was only a waiter...but to be real, that was just 20% of my work...

I have to wash the dishes, mop the floor, make water, serve VIP, take out the garbage, cut the fruits...and lots more!!! I even got my 'souvernir' ; 2 deep cuts on my fingers...thanks to the sharp edges of the metal jug I washed...luckily not much pain...just too many blood came out...don't know why...

Time to sleep...Zzzzzz...18 hours of work is just too much for a beginner like me...seriously...18 hours!!! 5am-11pm...... and the pay? around rm40 a day...even working at a wafer shop for 6 hours could land me rm20 a day...

Its a 'kampung' life

From the moment I moved to this small town called FELDA L.B.J. , I knew that my life is not going to be the same anymore....no friends, no Megamall, no bowling, nothing!!! My life is like a blank sheet of paper to be honest..everyday I prayed, hoping that my life will get more interesting and fast-paced than ever before...

I think God had approved my prayer...One day, my father said to me that my mak long is in need of waiter for her catering contract...I accept the job offer without even thinking twice!! Heh...now I knew that my life will be more interesting from now on...Yay!!
