i found the joy in working.

I got a new part time job. thanks to sher :)

I've been wanting to quit my old job since the day i started but then after a while, i started to like that job. However after a while again, i hated it again because of the customers and sometimes the people i work with. Then sher told me that the place she works at really needed part timers, and asked me to try it out but for some reason i didn't take it. maybe because i was scared to learn from scratch again. And a while later, sher's restaurant didn't have enough people working on that night and so she asked me to call her manager to give me a go. And so I did. Spontaneously, the manager asked me to go over that night itself and help out. I was really scared. So anyway, after that shift, i was like, 
hell, i love this jobbb.

so finally i quit my old job and am currently working in...
WAGAMAMA.

the back of my uniform.
btw, this restaurant started off in the UK and has branches all over europe. its a japanese restaurant for westerners.

and because i'm new, i don't know the menu well yet, so i worked in the bar. the bar i mean is not the bar bar. but the bar where drinks are made. my job is making juices (recipes are on the wall) and pouring wine and opening beers and sometimes serving the drinks.

Its an expensive restaurant, one meal cost about 17 to 20 dollars. The people i worked with are really nice, really helpful and always checking back on me to see whether i'm okay or not. if there are too many dockets, that is when i panic, they will give me a hand. 

got the pict off the internet,
from left, if i'm not wrong, its the apple, lime and mint juice. the other two i think its lemon ice tea? 

not only i like the people working with me and making drinks, i love the smell and the interior of the restaurant too. it smells sooo good always. the toilets are so clean too and there is soap in the toilets!! the interior, mostly everything is made out of wood.

the kitchen. i make drinks on the left. its out of the picture. 

i love the lights hanging from above.

most important is that i get paid sooo much higher. not sure how much but i think its 12 dollars per hour?
$.$

*sorry for the super long and longwinded post. 
it proves how much I LOVE MY JOB, :)*
