Awesome times after hell

Starbucks!! Since I entered university, I started to like starbucks more. Or rather I like to buy a cup (only either java chip or green tea cream frappe) at starbucks, sit down, relax and talk. Awesome times are spent there

Thats part of where I spent my day today with L!

Finally not in my black polo tee.

It was a nice relaxing evening!! We always joke around until I can't stop laughing.

If you didn't know, I'm currently doing a 9 day stint as a sales associate at Robinsons. & I feel so suffocated. My feet hurts everyday.

It's like the worst job ever. I do not understand how someone can stay there for 10 freaking years. I'm selling sportswear.

But I know nuts about sportswear.

The customers who come ask me all sorts of things

"Does this shoe expand after wearing?"

how would I know??

"Is this pair of shorts for running or for badminton?"

Is there any difference? Does it matter, really?

"Whats the difference between these two singlets?"

What can I say? Running, relaxing. Anything la. You have a special singlet just for running?

"Why your price differs so much from the NIKE store?"

LIKE I KNOW. It is 50% off leh. You want to buy or not?

Of cus I didnt say out the things I typed in italics, but thats what I thought of at that moment!

STOP ASKING STUPID QUESTIONS. I'm not sure cus you asked a STUPID question. Srsly... And I dun want to smoke cus I dun want to mislead.

I'm okay with customers asking questions. But when I say I'm not sure, why can't you just let it pass?

And I dislike those customers who will appear pissed off when I tell them I'm not sure. Am I all knowing? I'm already trying my best to understand more about sportswear given the limited time I have! I listen attentively when my fellow full time colleagues tell me more about the merchandise. I even asked L more about the different jerseys.

But given these 5 days, could I know everything in the sportswear dept?

Please forgive me if I can't answer your question. Won't you give me a chance? I'm new, and I'm a temporary.

I'll never ever do retail sales again. Unless at USS, which is a way BETTER environment than Robinsons cus the guests never ask stupid questions.

Stop being so hard on us. I'm given a normal pay, not even fantastic.
