Expectations, surprises at MFM
1:14:00 AMLet's not expect too much~
{Things seem to be going in favour, hopes raise, moods raise;Things didn't end the way it was supposed to be, disappointment.}
(Philosophical!)
Indulge in the little surprises in life.
That awesome feeling when you're pleasantly taken aback and your day's made ♥
Exactly how I felt when I got this for free today :)
Signature Mudpie from Manhatten Fish Market
2 days ago, I served a customer a Mudpie. Stared at it. Ohmygoddd. That rich chocolate~ I'm sooo gonna have that! And there's a 30% discount for staff! Yippee! So, I planned to buy that after work!
[Originally wanted to get it on some other days but I asked Fiza and she said it's quite troublesome to buy from other outlets cos you have to tell them you're a staff (prove it) and all. Easier to get from our own outlet :) ]
*after work*
"Aisha! I want to buy mudpie siaaa! It looks so nice! So I pay now??"
"Harh? You want mudpie ahhh? Uhhhhh~"
On the order taking menu machine, I saw she clicked on 'Friends card' .
*face brights up*
"OHMYGODDDDD! AISHA ILOVEYOU!!! <3"
Because we only click on 'Friends card' when customers redeem food items. WHICH MEANT, I got a free mudpie!!! =D HOLYCRACKERS!
There's like chocolate ice cream and brownie inside it? Damn love it!
Secondly, in the beginning I thought that my colleagues were kinda exclusive and that I wouldn't actually become part of them la. Talk and joke and all~
But yesterday was fabulous and so was today! I guess it takes awhile to get used to newbies hahah!
In the beginning, after Aisha roughly briefed me about the operation. She was like, "okay, bye". HAHA! I was quiteee... lost la? (even though she just briefed me lols). I was assigned to section A of the restaurant which was like 60% of it?!
My first day was a mess. Utter mess.
That day, the restaurant was packed. Everyone was practically very busy la. Being a newbie, I was slow and clumsy and inefficient. I think I was more of a burden then help LOLS!
When the customer asked about the soup, idk that we have to scoop and serve it. My colleague was like, "You everything also don't know then what you know? Okay, you go and help me clear the tables."
AH! I just got stabbed! I think I fainted for a moment so brief I don't even remember it. That instantaneous moment.
Rmb I talked about the complain I got from an old man customer on my first day of work? Yeah that too!
I shouldn't be ranting this la, but I also have feelings. Sooooo, here goes... stupid old man!!!
Anyway, things got better as days passed. I met Alicia who lent me her spare name tag when I lost mine, talked to me nicely, smiled real friendly to me, talked to me about other staff besides work lols (contact lens HAHA! Support her InstaShop @thedanda3)
This morning, Fiza goodmorning-ed me :) and I asked her about the staff discount thingy. She told me about how she ate mudpie until sian alr hahaha! And about the super chaotic times at MFM~ Whole restaurant booked by a hospital and orders poured in at the same time! Jam-packed kitchen.
Fatin's contacts suddenly got some irritation so she asked me for the saline solution. I didn't bring it! So i lent her my eye drops instead hahaha!
"Eyedrops can use meh!"
"Uhhhh can la! Use for your eye one what, it's like your tears! :D"
HAHA! Anyhow crap la, but eyedrops is the next best alternative :) WATER IRRITATES YOUR EYE MORE!
After that, can talk to her easily easily already ahaha!
Since this post is gonna be super draggy if I continue, I shall separate and blog about the other memorable times I had so far in the next next post ^^
