Yesturday I started a job @ a chinese restaurant called Tiki Ming in galeries de la capitale. My brother used to work there so he talks with the boss and all.. therefore he talked to him and told him about me.. and ricky accepted me. I did my first day yesturday..omg u wouldnt believe how much I screwed up!! I'll start by the beginning of my day when I was at home. I was talking with travis and I asked his girlfriend for the white tshirt that she offered to lend me when i would start work. She said its xtra small but it stetches so it would fit.. so my brother said.. dont wear a small shirt.. the girls who were working there were bending down one time u could see their backs and the guys were teasing them (jokingly of course)..so sarah says no its not short its long. They wont say anything. So i go on the bus with Travis to go to work because his work is right beside mine. So when we got there I got Tims for me and my brother and we go sit down and drink out coffee.. i eat my cookies too. 3 chocolate chip cookies! yum.. Then I went to see Natalie and she gave me my new apron and hat.. I followed Yan because he had the key to the tiki ming storage room. There I put my apron and hat on, and put away my coat and bag. So I go to the bathroom to see what i looked like. It was so cool! i looked professional and for some reason I felt important. But the thing was I was sneezing and blowing my nose so much so i was asking travis what i should do if I'm about to sneeze while Im serving a customer.. and all.. but luckily as soon as I got into the back where the guys were working my cold suddenly stopped so I didnt have to worry about it. It was as if it were some kind of miracle working my way, because my cold was very bad and I didnt have one anymore. I see Ricky, my boss. I ask him how he's doing, then I turn around and say look my shirt is long, its not short like this.. and he got affended!!! OMG He was wondering what I was doing, and he asked me why I turned around and did that. I was like.. well my brother told me that u guys teased the girls when they had short shirts. He said.. not me. I was like shit what did I do? My first day on the job and my boss doesnt seem to like me. He told me that at the beginning he will be a jerk because thats the way we learn fast how to work good. But I had a feeling it wasnt his work coming into that. That he was offended. I apolized. I told him I was only joking around and he said nothing.. except he gave me a look. I then went to the front where the woman was going to teach me my new job.. so I got to serve my first customer and I didnt know what she wanted really. She said number 3 so I look into the cheat sheet then looked at the food, said sorry cause I was slow and new.. she said it was fine. Then when I was putting things into her plate.. i wasnt putting enough.. and it looked a bit messy so Natalie showed me how to do it. I was shaking when I was serving the customers.. SHAKING.. and people noticed. I felt so sorry. I kept apolizing and telling people I was new. Then natalie told me to relax and that the people are just people like us. I was like..okay I'll do that. and I stopped shaking. I wasnt nervous any more.. but then when people started to ask for 3 choix.. I took the plate, and put rice on it.. then got the other choices trying to put them onto the plate but while doing so, I accidently tilted the plate and dropped some rice into the chow mang dish ( I think it was that one..lol). Natalie was laughing, and saying it was only normal.. we all make mistakes.. and she said these are the good times when we work and screw up.. lol Then later on someone says he was a small pepsi. So i look the small staraphome glass and put pepsi in it and give it to him. Little did I know, the small straophome cups were for water only, and that there were only two sizes for the pop, either the small or the big.. what i thought was that the small pop cups were the medium sized cups so u can see why i made a mistake there.. lol Oh and I tried to work the cash register and twice I screwed up.. ringing something in 3 times.. lol oh god! but then I got the hang of it! I also got one customer that spoke english!! He was so happy to see that I spoke english..he must have known from my accent. He was my age.. and he asked me what a certain food was. I said.. I only new it in french. And he said it was okay, and that he would take it anyways. Natalie looked at me and was calling me a cheater!! lol for speaking english.lol!! it was funny. Then a guy came up and pointe to the macoroni with the chicken in it, and looked at me and asked if there was anything that didnt have chicken in it. I thought he asked.. is there any macoroni that didnt have chicken in it, so I said no and he looked at me weird, so I asked Natalie to see what he wanted, and then she was pointing to all the things that didnt have chicken in it and i was like..OH! lol Another cusomer came by and asked for some noodles with sparerib sauce over it and I heard.. noodles with spareribs.. so I go and put noodles in a bowl, and get a little plate and put spareribs on the plate. She was so, On top of the noodles, so I'm like okay.. and i was about to dump the spareribs on top of the noodles, but Natalie stopped me and told me that she wanted the sparerib sauce on top of the noodles.. i apolized.. lol Natalie was working there for 13 years already! when she told me that I was like.. really? do u still like ur job? she said.. it pays the bills and its not a bad job. I was really happy to be working with her. She brought humour into the work and made the day less boring. So when the time came and I was finished it seemed like a nice job, and then i go into the back to ask when I work again. Ricky said he didnt know, and that he would tell Travis. Then he said to me that when I saw a big line up I shook.. and that I wasnt able to do that. He said I should never look at the line up and always concentrate on the person in front of me. I said that the only reason why i shook was because I wasnt used to it, and that i was new.. and that i got used to it with time. Then Natalie backed me up and said that I was doing good for a beginner.. I was happy to hear her stick up for me. Then I told Ricky, sorry again for this morning. He asked again why I did it. Then he told me what it looked like. He said it looked as if i were showing him my butt.. I was like.. WHAT? I told him again what happened and why i did it.. and all.. telling him again that my brother had told me about the guys teasing the girls and that i was just showing him that my shirt was long and not short. He said he was shy and that he's not like that.. I said.. well I thought u were.. and i apolized 5 more times, and left thinking 'omg im gonna be fired.. plus I cant believe I did that.. did i really look like i was showing him my butt? omg he said thats what it looked like.. omg I'm so embarressed'. I kept walking. I was aloud to take food from tiki ming and eat it, but i was so embarressed that i didnt eat, and left to go to the bus stop and held my tears back. I was humiliated! I couldnt believe it. Anyways that was my day at work! Ricky told me not yesturday but the day before yesturday that i will only be working just about once a week to get hang of the job, then I will be working full time in the summer, and possible if the other girl leaves to go to university (not natalie..the other one.. the one that was sick yesturday and didnt come to work)I will take her place. Im kinda dissapointed. I thought i would be working more than this. I want money. Anyways I will try to find more jobs.. maybe weekend jobs cause god knows i wont be working weekends right now at tiki ming.. too many people to work with! lol for now.. Was there a time when u started to work that u totally screwed things up? Tell me a time where "U" screwed up on ur first day of work! =D
