My 1st 3 days of work was considered pleasant... Everyone there in my department treat me in a very nice manner...
1st day:
The moment i walked into the security room...
Guard: New here?
Me: Ya... 1st day...
Guard: what's your name?
Me: Chee Wee
Guard: I am uncle ahmad, any easier name to call you?
Me: Chew...
Guard: okay chew, i ask amy out to tell you what to do...
From that day onwards, everyone called me chew or chewy... Because they can't pronounce my name properly... My manager was very good to me, he is quite a nice man other than his name which is called "Desmond"... Reminds me of my friend, so I am not quite comfortable in addressing him as manager... Everyone there call him "boss", which was quite a nice term t0 use, maybe i shall try to use it next time...
The first day i was there, i was quite surprised that there are only 3 guys including me in the Mens wear department... It feels kinda weird... Haha...
The second day was a quiet day as everyone kinda know me already but do not have a common topic to talk about... So it was more like they talk and i listen... Only Desmond keep joking with me... Haha...
Yesterday was quite a enjoyable day as they keep making fun of each other... During break time, the 2 guys name Manfred and Paul are joking that they are gays with each other, then Desmond will be the "Fathers of gay"... That was quite funny... Both of them joke with each other perfectly... As in the moment one of them mentioned something, the other will know what to expect next... And they only know each other for 2 months... Haha...
Of course, there are customers who asked questions that i can't answer... One of them asked me about the difference between cotton, viscose and modal... All these are different types of materials... I was stunned by the question and normally, i will use my standard phrase when i am stunned by customers, "I am not sure, but i will check for you? Hold on please..." Then i request for help... Haha... Another asked if a certain business shirt is for long or short hands... Haha... Weird way of asking though... So i stick back to my standard phrase and managed to pull it off...
That's about all for work... Shall begin work tomorrow again... It's quite fun looking at how people communicate in different areas...
