Since I am back home early today, and having lots of thought in mind now, shall blog.Who should I take order from, who should I learn from?
I think after I've been to a few working places, understanding the dog eat dog working world, there's something I see similarity in. Many places, have both young and elder working adults. Hence, speaking of experience, the younger ones definately at the losing end. However, not forgetting, the younger ones do learn through professional teaching.
Many times, the younger ones are taking the lead already, since they would get higher positions because of their qualifications. For instance, at winner. Nancy is an example. She's the elder one, but yet, of no high position. And always ordering people, and 'physco-ing' the younger ones' mind. Then when people who are younger than her, gives order to new staffs, she gets upset because she no longer can get people to do her job. And whatever the younger ones tell her something she did wrongly, she's unhappy with it, having the mindset that, she had been with the company for so long that she knows everything inside out.
But what century are we in now, 21st century already! There's a need for change. We cannot stick to everything just like how it is.
See, I'm in harbourfront only for four days, and I've seen quite alot for these few days. Let me just introduce the guy I was talking about in previous post. Uncle Heng, a very naggy old man. And the other younger ones, are my sous chef. Uncle Heng is the leading cook, btw. Lower position.
Uncle Heng have ways of doing things of his own. He refuse to listen and follow how the younger ones taught him. He always challenge them by using words like - you don't believe, you try lor. So the younger ones would always give in as respect, and just nod their head, telling him we believe and there isn't a need to try. There is no doubt of his experience throughout the years. Isn't it just the same as myths and scientifically proves. I would rather follow the scientifically proves.
It's ironical, the younger ones would have to respect the elderly, but yet the younger ones are of higher positions. They were jokingly saying just now, Uncle Heng not around, I don't want go eat. In fact, since starting, I don't like to go out, I feel lazy. But everytime I work 7am with him, then go lunch together lor. But I don't like to go lunch with him. He seriously nags alot alot alot. Abit until I cannot take it.
Uncle Heng would be able to link something to something. Link A to Z. See my point now. He'll tell me everything about human nature, the human cycle etc etcc. Telling me about after life, my parents may end up together again, and things like that.
For those who doesn't know. I ain't a person who believe in after life, human cycle and things like that, because it's human nature, you wouldn't know what happens after you die. And I that sort of person, who wishes to die and then come back and tell you what's the process of death. Get my point? No one knows what happens after death, how would you know how the following generations of your family would be like in the future.
Oh please, the world is forever turning. Yes, some of the things he mentioned is correct and agreeable. But mostly, I don't believe in. It's all one ear in, one ear out. Because I think it's all crap.
Spare me man. I think he's one of a kind. Who grabs hold onto newbie and process their mind like his. But sorry, I've yet to be processed.
Being a girl, is already at a losing end, since girls are generally weaking than guys in emotions and physical.
Rhica cried at work today. Just because Chef Raymond and leading cook, ah fai make fun of her. They said in chinese, 'clever can already, don't act clever.' Then she angry, walked out of kitchen, as usual go toilet cry.
Seriously, I think she too weak already lor. She said they always make fun of her, then she buay tahan. Already say le mar, it's just for laughter. Why she take it to heart lehs, so angry for what. If being a little more forgiving, and don't take things to heart, can make everyone's day, why not? Working only mar, who's not out for a living.
I may look like those who take things to heart very easily, because I always like answer them in a very serious tone. But I'm not those sort lar, I'm as playful(for those who know, you know it very well). I've learn to take things easy. If seriously, I'm at fault, I would apologise. All people want to hear is 'sorry' right? If I'm not at fault, I wouldn't apologise, I wouldn't cry for being taken as a scapegoat.
Yes, I'm contradicting myself from my post last time, where I broke down. How long I breakdown once? Very seldom.
Don't be a weak. Being weak wouldn't bring you anywhere. So ladies! No matter which area of work are you in, don't be a weak, you'll only get bullied. People shoot you, shoot back. Don't run away by not talking to them.
Quite a long post today hor.
Anw, I got GPA3.47 for my previous term. Very glad that I actually maintained, the very first one, GPA3.50. At least I'm still somewhere near. Though I may not be as good in my practical as my other classmates, but no point practical good, then academic no good. I'm maintaining my academic, and making my way up in practical. I will work harder. I want to show to people who look down on me.
Fuck it, people who look down on me, and thinks that I'll never make it big. I'll prove you wrong.
Hoho! I found back my confidence already. Which seriously I lost them at cat2 CC.
Cheers Baby! :D
