BARNONE @ Marriott Hotel !!

Work at Barnone was fun!
My partner Irene was awesome !
She guided me through and taught me many things.
Helped me with unreasonable customers and drank on my behalf bcos she was ending work soon and I've got another 2 more hours to work.

Though it was really tiring and the boots were killing my feet after standing for 4 solid hours, I was satisfied with my performance.

I managed to sell 15 bottles last night !
Irene helped me with the first 7 bottles and she told me it's a very good performance for a first-timer like me.
And when Irene left, I sold another 8 more bottles !!
Hurray !!

This is deifinitely a total different kind of working experience I had compared to working with Dad.
Though it's tougher, but least, I got to see the outside world , different kinds of men. No wait, they're uncles. haha!

There was this boss who left me with a deep impression bcos he spend almost thousands on me !!
Not directly on me lah, but purchasing liquors from me.
Don't know why he was doing so, but I guess he doesn't know that I'm actually not getting commissions from those liquor.

He told the manager to release me earlier so that he could drive me home. WTH !
And I got reprimanded by the manager who told me to tell the boss that I am not working as a bargirl but for J.walker and my job requires me to promote liquors until 2am !

I did tell him but the boss was semi-drunk and told me that either I go with him or I wont see him at Barnone anymore.

Damit ! I felt like screaming at his face, telling him that I am only gonna be there for tonight and he wont be seeing me anymore bcos I am ain't working for Barnone !
But I couldn't bcos the BIGBIG BOSS of Barnone was around.

BIGBIG BOSS was nicer! Much nicer than the manager definitely!
He told me to get to work and he'll settle everything for me.
How nice :)


There was also this customer who was super nice and told me smthg that made me felt like crying.

"You are so beautiful. Why work here? You shldn't be wasting your beauty here. Too beautiful to be here. I don't wanna see you here next week ! Please protect yourself tonight"


Aww... Thanks uncle. And sure enough, you won't be seeing me anymore bcos it's my very first and last time at Barnone last night.

That was the most conforting words I've heard so far since the breakup with Shiwei.
Not that my friends are not doing their job, but prolly bcos he was just some random customer, a stranger, and he actually felt sorry for me.




2 of my customers who wanted to have a picture with me.
Barnone isn't as bad as what I thought.
I've made a handful of friends there with the bouncers and bartenders.
Chit-chating with the bartenders while waiting for the liquours, watched awesome magic tricks from the one of the bouncer while resting.
Friendly people !
But, sad to say, it was my last night there.
