@ 2:41 AM
Today at work.
Reached GCW hotel around 5pm+. Then changed for pass and clothes. Saw Wan Jia and Jia Min. Jia Min was working at the fourth floor Grand Ballroom while Wan Jia was working with me at the Cafe. First day working at Cafe and it was quite relax. The managers were both Indians but they did not use much vulgarities as the banquet managers. Was assigned to a few tables at Station 3. Was kinda new to working in the Cafe, but it was similar to buffet except that I never had work for buffet during the times in banquet. Managed to get help from a few others who were seniors in this area. Time passed really slow, but the buffet ended at around 9pm+. During the remaining period of time before 11pm, I was asked to help in moving chairs from the first floor to the second level, along with Charavin and Rey. Made friends with them and chatted a lot. We were like very slacked there. Every time we moved up to the second level, we took a few minutes of break. At 10pm+, we decided to speed up our work. Unfortunately, when we had moved up majority of the chairs, we were told that the room we had put the chairs in was to be used for a function in the next morning, so we had to move all the chairs out. Fortunately, the manager in charge of us told us to move as much as we can until 11pm and we were then released. Waited for Wan Jia and Jia Min before we left the hotel. Upon leaving the building, we saw that there were many people queuing to enter the Zouk. The queue stretched into the car park of the hotel.
