Back to Life.

Ehehe, sorry for the long hiatus. Firstly, was really busy with assignments, and secondly, well, frankly I was just lazy.

A lot of things has happened since the last post. I found a job(not gonna mention where as stalkers may be around). Found the true colors of the world, it ain't nice. Working as a sales promoter where one has to have the guts to approach the customer surprisingly was second nature to me.
=)

Must be in the right course then.

Let me tell you one of the experiences I had in my first week of work. I was cheated right in front of my eyes. I am working as a sales promoter as I have said, in a shop that sells tea therefore, we have a sales target to meet. On my first day, the other guy who was also working there was cunningly siphoning my sales into his account. As we employees have our own codes, we are to key in our own respective codes when we sell a product, as much as I hate to admit, I was naive and too trusting, I had allowed him to key in my code for me as I was not taught to use the computer. But he was happily using his own code.

The even more shocking thing was that, after I found out about it, the guy had the cheek to suggest that we play scissors,paper, stone and whoever wins, the sales should go to the winner. I mean, what does he take me for, a 2 year old? When I refused, he then proceeded to suggest that we take turns alternately to take the sales. First of all, I am doing all the talking and selling, secondly, I freaking stand up for 6 hours straight while you take long and frequent toilet breaks and take the slightest opportunity to laze and sit?

The funny thing was, as I told it to my close ones and they all suggested that I ignore the guy but for some particular reason, I have this thinking that there must be some good in everyone. (Yeah, super naive aren't I?) So instead of ignoring him, I still talked to him and treated him nicely but I was careful that I was there when he keyed in my code.

Surprise surprise, he managed to cheat me still. I was standing there, waiting for my code to be keyed in, he quickly keyed in his code and ta-da, he just sold RM20 worth of product thanks to my skills and hard work. That was when I decided that I had enough, in my heart, I prayed a silent pray for him to fall down flat on his face and ... haha, joking. But I did pray, I told God, I have done what You have asked of us, to love our enemies, I have treated him good when all he deserved was a good whacking. Where is the justice?

The next day came, I managed to sell RM400++ of goods while he got a measly RM100 worth and he was also reprimanded by the manager for being lazy and trying to cheat little girls aka me.

=)

God is good isn't He?

Well, I have still a few more weeks to go and hopefully, God will help me through.

And I want to thank those who supported me, lent me their ears. I appreciate you.

More stories to come but that would be for another post. Till then, stay strong! =D
