Job Hunting!!!
It was a Sunday afternoon when it all started....got a call from UK (Ukwang) saying he wanted to buy something from Sungai Wang. Well i didn't mind going there as i was REALLY REALLY BORED at home. For all i know, every1's trying 2 stay out of their houses ALAP (as long as possible). Called Adrian to join us but he declined and suggested that we go to 1U. So in the end we ended up in 1U...the 4 of us.. the other fella was Sue Anne. We started walking around the whole place searching for ads posted outside the shops 4 a job application and i was surprised to see that there were ALOT of choooooooosy employers out there. Here are some of the examples i saw................
XXX Clothes Shop : Chinese Girl wanted, extremely talented, willing to work hard, long hours,shifts,public holidays. (i was wondering...they didn't specify extremely talented in what???...u know i'm extremely talented in dressing up as a girl....so erm do i qualify for this job???)
XXX Restaurant : Willing to work hard, long hours, shifts, public holidays, above average looking, friendly and enthusiastic. (above average looking??? well they've found their right person standing outside their premises for a while but his friends didn't look interested in the job. I wonder why??? couldn't be that they're not friendly,enthusiastic, willing to work hard, long hours, shifts, public holidays.......i wonder which requirement they didn't fulfil???)
XXX Fast Food outlet : We are finding people who has experience of becoming a sos depositer. (means.....whoever that has experience in becoming a sos boy/girl...1st time seeing this though....oh yeah...this outlet ain't McD)
There were many other weird attributes employers were loooking for but these were the ones that really caught my mind. So since some of us couldn't meet the requirements in some of these jobs we had to find another place that will accept us. What i wanted to say to those employers b4 i left was......."Come ON!!! It doesn't matter what race we are, what gender we are or how we look that matters in securing a job.....its about the Commitment, perseverence, passion that makes a good worker."........about the experience needed 2 become a sos boy/girl....i thnk u really need the experience otherwise you wouldn't be able to handle those squirters....i had a complain once when i was working at McD because i squirted the wrong sos into a burger...i still remembered that mistake cost me 1 hour of my pay....i squirted tomato sauce onto a Fillet-O-Fish......n all i got was a Today-No-Pay.
We moved on to The Curve!!!....had problems finding Sue's car as it was hidden in a sea of cars...we finally found it after walking 10-15min in the car park. Sat in Sue's car as Uk's car had no aircon because the timingbelt or something like that was about to break....UK told me that if it did break half way during our journey...the car would explode...COME ON UK!!! who do u think i am??? i'm not Adrian u know.........(2 be continued as UK has just given me a call 2 have lunch with him....no car as his car was sent 2 the workshop b4 it exploded...phew...2 be continued...PART 2 of Job HUNTING!!! stay tuned!!!) by Sean
