Almost a month had pass by since the first day i stepped into the Conrad World.. Learnt quite a handful of skills as a room attendant housekeeper and met many new friends too.. though name remembering is still quite a difficult task for me..
For a rough pinpoint on what is the current situation now for me at my ITP.. I am doing 9 rooms now but increasing as the days goes by and with the fastest being 35min and slowest being 1hr 15min.. Lunch break getting more depressing as the number of rooms goes up.. and is already resorting to skipping lunch in order to complete the rooms within the normal working hours..
Done 2 days of banquet recently which was quite crazy idea because they end late at 11pm so i will reach home at around 12+ but have to wake up at 5.30am in the morning for another day of cleaning rooms.. Meant to try them as a form of experience so at least i know how the banquet life goes..
Day 1 was horrible.. I was the runner so i have to "run" to the kitchen and carry the food and "run" back to the station for the servers to portion and serve them.. and boy are those plates heavy.. After the guests ate and we cleared it.. we have to carry them back.. Here come the problem.. I aint confident of my tray-carrying skills so i wouldnt even imagine what happen if i accidentally broke 50 plates.. not including the mess i make.. so i carry them in front of me and stroll back to the kitchen instead.. Bad (but the real) experience..
Day 2 was easier because its Buffet.. Mainly serve drinks while they wait around before entering the ballroom to attend the event.. Wrist got quite tiring after a number of trips to and fro from the bar to the guests area.. Then it was setting up the tables for some reasons.. Gg. The tables are taller and heavier than me and it look like they will crush me to death if lean too much on me OR topple over and create a din and mess if lean too much to the other side.. Soooooo.. i DRAGGED a table or two before they decided i should just go and do something else.. =P
So here is the gist of my life so far.. stay around for more.. and i shall try not to be so wordy next time....
