Interesting working day

Today is the 10th day i'm working in Charles & Keith..
it's a very different experience for me working in a retail outlet,
i personally prefer the F&B industry,
so didn't really enjoy working there,
especially their 'no-break-if-work-6 hours-and-below' rule,
damn sux!
got headache whenever i'm working..
maybe it's the music the play everyday..
it's damn loud and sometimes annoying i can say..

Well, besides those negative things,
today was quite an interesting day,
quite a number of interesting things happen:

1.
2 separate aunties, arriving at 2 different times,
was trying to get my attention to ask about shoes and bags,
they are calling 'leng zai' and i know they're referring to me,
since i'm the only chinese working there,
but i ignored and pretend i dunno they're calling me,
then they approach me...
i try to kept quiet as not to reveal my gender..
thank god they didn't ask much..
hehe

2.
A leng lui approached me after choosing a handbag,
and she asked me to hold that handbag
(as how usually a girl holds it)
cos she say her working attire is like ours,
which is whole body black,
i was quite nervous and a bit embarrassed..
haha..
but i still hold the bag for her,
as i dunno how to reject,
and she was smiling so sweetly,
(n_n)

3.
Just as my shift was going to end,
a middle-east lady walked in..
she was walking and looking for shoes,
and grabbing whatever she likes,
we saw she's holding around 7-8 shoes,
and everyone is avoiding her,
cos if she picked anyone of us,
it will take looooooong time to search for all her shoes,
but then,
as the unlucky one,
a colleague was 'picked' and i was nearby,
therefore i helped him to search half of the shoes,
total pair of shoes is 9 pairs..
she wanted size 38 or 39,
as i was searching for only 4 pairs,
i decided to only take the size 38 shoes,
and since the code numbers are quite near,
gladly i found the shoes quite fast..
and as i approached the lady,
the colleague says she can't fit 38 and needs size 39,
OMFG!! i have to climb the shelves all over again to get the shoes!
Ok... there she was happily tring all 9 pairs of shoes,
and her bf / husband walked in and joined her..
it's obvious she likes all the shoes,
and even asked a colleague to borrow her the calculator,
so that she can calculate the total amount,
as she was trying out the shoes,
3 of us, Linda, Dilla and me was betting on how many pairs she will buy,
Linda guess 1, Dilla guess 2 and i guess 3,
since i served her and can see that she really like those shoes,
so i bet on a larger number..
and again, i approached her to see whether she has decided on how many pairs to buy,
and she said: "These shoes are lovely, but he (her bf/husband) doesn't like any of them",
and she starts putting on her own shoes,
OMFG again! making us climb up and down getting the shoes but didn't buy any!
well, we're just laughing away as none of us won the bet..
haha

Besides that,
today is the first time i see people spending a lot,
yeah, damn lot! just like that!
a lady came in around afternoon and straight away bought 5 pairs of shoes!
paying RM600+ cash for the shoes..

and later in the evening,
2 aunties came in,
dunno buy how many pairs of shoes,
and 3 bags (same design different colors),
and contributed another RM1000+ to our sales,
how i wish i have that money to spend like them,
spending without thinking...

Well, that's the most interesting day i can say throughout my working days..
hope 2010 will be an interesting year for me and everyone as well ^^
