Fight Is On


I don't care about what time is it.I don't care about what time Im suppose to wake up tommorow.I don't care about my split or shift shift.All I freaking care is blog an entry for an asshole.A stupid piece of trash.

The reason Im working is not just about getting paid.Im working for experience and exposure.Im working to build a network that will help me in the future.Im more than willing to lower my head down and listen to what people are teaching me as I feel that I will learn more that way but please don't treat me like a stupid idiot.C'mon,it doesnt matter about where you come from or what car you're driving or whatever shit that you claimed you have,what matters is that you have to prove your worth to back ur shit up or stop talking crap and shut the hell up!!!

I can freaking carry a tray and communicate to a guest.Im not bragging here but please read my resume you asshole.I came from a fine-dining background and the restaurants that I have worked are the pinnacle of all fine-dining restaurants.I have competed and won competitions.What about you?Banqueting?That's just shit.I know the art of service more than you freaking do.I can deal with customers without any fuss and I can set a table to perfection without your primary 1 type of tutorial bitch!!!

Again,please read my resume.Knowledge is an everlasting journey but I guarantee you that I know about wines and spirits more than you can ever imagine.Please stop giving me the"Shit,he's gonna screw things up" look when Im de-corking or decanting a wine.I know of what Im doing.You don't even know that the grapes that makes Champagne and Bordeaux red wines and you're telling people that you are actually teaching me wine knowledge?!?You're challenging me by saying that you can blind taste wine and spirits without any mistakes?You're "ON" freak show.I'll show you who is your master.You keep on telling people that the certificates that I've won and had are just merely pieces of paper?Let me tell you something my friend.When it come to the real show or challenge,you cant even hold my candle!!!Look at the wines sales?Mr FirMraz:$1500.Mr *:$250.Tell you something dude,I just started work a month ago.You?Since opening?You do the math!!!

I could go on and on and on but my eyes are telling me to stop and I won't torture them any further.But just to let you know that Im not done yet and it's far from being over.

Freak Show!!!

Back From Hiatus


If you're thinking that Im ditching my blog for whatever reason that is on your mind,Im afraid that you're wrong.Im not closing down or leaving this blog to rot in any shape or form.The reason of this hiatus from blogging all comes down to a lack of time commitments.Let me explain why.

Im splitting myself between 2 different jobs now.Sounds crazy?Maybe to the neutrals but to me,it's an experience.The reason for my actions is not due to any money shortages but to challenge myself.It may sound stupid to many but life is short and I want to make the best out of anything that I have now as I do not want to live a life in regret and dissapointments.It's draining and tiring but at the end of the day,you know that you are doing something that you love and enjoy and that is what Im going through right now.It's fun and thrilling!!!

So what am I working as?Well,during the day,Im just your normal waiter cum sommelier in a restaurant at the Esplanade but when the early hours kicks in,Im your bartender of the night at a club in The Central at Clarke Quay.Sounds good to you?Haha.

Business on both sides of my workplace have turn from bad to worse due to H1N1 virus and this epidemic have struck a friend of mine(not literally but suspected).She was clubbing at this club(as always!!!)and apparently a guy who was infected by the virus was in the same club as her!!!Now,she has to stay at home and rot.I wanted to visit her but she told me that it would be best if she avoid any contact with anyone throughout her quarantine period.At least,innovations like sms and msn keeps us in contact.Thank god.

Alrite folks,it's time for me to go.I'll catch up with a new post some time soon.

Life Is Good!!!Is It?

Dilemma


It looks like Im hitting the books once again.Yeah,you heard me,Im going back to school!!!In case you're wondering if Im going for the HDHM programme,well,Im not.Im going for a wine enhancement course that will span across for 4 months.That should keep occupied till I receive my enlistment letter.Haha.

Now,lies the problem.I've only been working for a week at 7atenine and now I have to tell my manager that I am not able to commit fulltime for the next 4 months.This sucks.I have never worked in a better working environment than 7atenine.This place rocks to the core man.The place,atmosphere,people and even the staff meal is all good.If only the shifts can be forgiving at times,I would rate this place as a near-perfect working environment!!!.

Back to the problem.Now,I have to tell my manager that I need to switch to part-time starting from next month onwards and this is tough news to break because you have no idea how tremendously nice this manager is.He gave me a chance to work when others rejected me due to my enlistment and now I have to tell him this.Shit.All I can think that will benefit both parties if the company allows me to switch to part time.If that is possible,I would be able to work before or after my class starts.It's the best win-win situation that I can think of.Friday would be decision day.Let's hope that Friday will be a good day.
