Internship has been really tiring thus far.. Maybe cos I'm not used to working 6 days a week.. Or izzit maybe that I also get to have 10 hours of sleep everyday? Haha..
Tuesday- 1st Day at Reservations.. 10am shift but reached at 845am.. The good thing about the lockers in Meritus is that uniforms can be hung in them meaning no ironing needed.. =D And if you ever have to wash your uniform, the laundry department will do that for you.. Double =D.. Put on tons on makeup and gel thinking the HOD would be strict.. And also ensuring that not a single strand of hair was out of place..
Started off with reading some training manuals.. I think I'll need 10 Days to devour all that info.. The HOD advised us to transfer into Front Office after 2 months.. Hmm.. Maybe I'll talk to Rebecca about it.. Worth considering.. I don't even mind F&B.. Haha.. Lunch after that in the "Prison Plate" place.. Haha.. Saw Cherie and Shimin.. 1 hr lunch break rocks becos it means I can eat slowly and slack.. But we're also not allowed to go out during this period..
Back to Reservations.. Was made to do some filing which took 4 hours.. Got attached to a senior staff, Asha who received the most obnoxious phone calls ever.. Haha.. Learnt abit of the system.. Off work at 6pm.. Home for dinner after that.. Mum came over with SJ to get some stuff.. Walked Ah Foo downstairs at the park..
Wednesday- Filing in the morning again.. Took 2 hours this time.. =D Sat beside Asha for a while before going to lunch.. Saw Cherie again.. Happy Belated! Slacked and slacked.. Sandy does not dare to eat the Prison Plate Lunch.. Hmm.. Wonder why.. Back to reservations and this time got to do some keying in of the reservations.. So many travel agents, so many rooms, so many forms! Do you guys know that MM can be sued for seriously contributing to Global Warming? My God! The amount of paper they used is extraordinary.. And they dump paper like nobody's business.. Xin Tia.. And did I ever mention the amount of highlighter they used too? Goodness..
Home for dinner after that.. Went to Harbourfront to meet Yanqi, Jie Ping and Junwei.. Crapped and laughed esp at the Friendster part.. Haha.. Home after that.. Watched abit of TV and crashed..
Thursday- Filing once again.. Made friends with the HOD's office boy who is also of the same age.. Wonder why he wanted to take up an office job as part time.. Hmm.. Nvm.. Lunch after that with the colleagues from Reservations.. Got to know them a little better.. Major keying in of Reservations after Lunch.. Learnt more this time.. Did abit of photocopying for them too.. Not a bad day.. Haha..
Okie.. Just for everybody's info.. MM's Reservations Department opens from 830am to 8pm.. So that means I'll be doing office hours.. Hmm.. Hoping to be able to find a part time F&B job in any of MM's restaurants to kill off the evenings and earn some extra bucks.. Banqueting could be fun.. Off on Sunday which is quite ok.. But its the end of the week.. =( Internet coming tml which means I don't have to travel all the way to Paya Lebar to use the wireless.. =D
Good Night Moo- Putts!
