Work work...

i've been working for the past few weeks of the hols. after sitting around at home, bored till my brains nearly melted, i got me a job as a promoter. it's an ok job, nothing fancy. no special benefits. just fills my otherwise empty time. anyhow, it also consumes large quantities of my energy! hahah! usually, i end up coming home at 11pm, shower then sleep. just really tiring.

good things about this job? my colleagues. i got the chance to meet really swell ppl. though most are pretty much younger than me, i think they're good company. most of the girls are 16 whereas the two guys i work with are 20 and 22. nice people... now, these ppl are the promoters i work with. me, i'm a cashier with the 22 year young guy. both of us spend alot of time with our supervisor who really is something.

now, my supervisor is the epitome of mood swings. she can be the nicest person in the world at times, and the ultimate bitch the next second. both myself and my co-cashier (let's call him A) have gotten scolding from him. i have been told off for my dress code. for those that know me... you know how my t-shirts are. and i know i'm not obscene. i'm sorry, but none of my t-shirts are veyr long. they're all just at my navel. i like them that way cos i think i have a relatively flat tummy. anyhoo... i've also been told that my hair's a mess (when it isn't). it irritates me to no end. not only that, we work OT most of the time and don't get paid extra! (not fair, but alas...) well, A on the other hand, being the only other guy worth talking to (the other one, my supervisor doesn't really like...) spends more time with my single and very much available supervisor. downfall? when she's sore with him, he gets it worse than me.

she scolds A when he talks to the other female promoters. warns him to "not talk to" the other promoter who sells (... i can't say... or it'll be too obvious where i work, not that i'm ashamed, just that the retail i work for is big and i don't want to get sued) another company's stuff because "she's already got a boyfriend and she's not good news". wth? but when she's nice to him, oh goodness... it's like she's got a crush on the poor lad... hahah! ah well, early morning shift tomorrow so i have to go to bed now... toodles! :P
