I'm so going to rant about work. And seriously, I may be repeating what I've said many many times. Still, I finally understand how Singaporean guys feels when they go for their BMT. Though mine is peanuts as compared to theirs. Many of you may be wondering what have I been doing since the start of my school. Some of the people know that I'm at Coffee Club, but yet doesn't know what I'm really doing. Alright, here it goes.I'm so damn unhappy with this arrangement from my school, alright. Thinking that welfare would be well taken care of, but still. See, I don't have Public Holiday. I don't get off on Public Holiday or half day on the eve's. And I have to work 6days per week. For those at bigger restaurant I'm okay, simply because there's really more things to learn things there. But for me, I'm at this small kitchen. When customer order, I've just got to heat up the food. Yes, I know, they're simply trying to get us prepared before we go into the workforce.
Yes, I do get allowance, $8/day, which includes meal and transportation. I do get to claim my PH off. But we know nuts of how to do it. They only told us we could, but didn't mentioned how we do it. And because there's so much limit to whatever that I can learn at this bloody kitchen. It's more of memorising the expiry dates and the time to heat up the food. Nothing already. Only press microwave.
Put it in a simplier form. I go there, do the same thing everyday. After 8 hours, Bye, I go home. Call that a training? Damn it. Free-labour, don't get to learn much.
And I think spinelli would train better personnel. Seriously. Spinelli would make me follow the time exactly using timer, CC doesn't, all based on experience. Spinelli practices First In First Out more effective than CC. CC would simply just top up and things like that. But Spinelli? They would pour out everything, take out everything, wash it then top up, then put back the older ones. But CC let abit, they'll just top up. They don't wash. Now I know how much I learnt from Spinelli over that 1 month.
There's something that I personally dislike about CC, maybe in those Cat 2 outlet(small kitchen). I shall not say it here, because it'll spoil their reputation. So yar.
I finished ranting!
I miss my LIFE. And I mean LIFE. This shouldn't be a life of a student. I want to enjoy life of student. But I ain't. Sigh!
