I just have to salute those who works in shopping complexes.
Not only do they work from 10am to 10pm (those without shifts, that is), but they also have to mostly stand up the whole time and serve customers! AND with a smile the entire time!
I certainly learned about this firsthand during my 2-day experience of working in the hubby’s shop during these CNY holidays.
There were A LOT of customers those past 2 days, and so not only was I the cashier, I was also serving customers, trying to sell the toys with whatever little knowledge I know of those products!
And who knew I could sell stuff! LOL!
However, I certainly did not like the way the customers not answering or at least acknowledging us with a smile when we greet them, but hey, I guess that’s life, huh? Not everyone likes to smile. And who are we to them? Nobody.. just strangers trying to sell you stuff.
But still, the world would be a much better place if people would smile more though, is what I think.
So after work was over yesterday, all I wanted to do was get home and sleep! I was totally exhausted. My knees and feet hurt from all those standing around; even when I wore my super comfy sandals around, my feet still hurts!
So anyways, I understand a little bit more now as to why the hubby always comes back home feeling really tired and just wanting to go to bed straight away.
