Hope Is Revived

Today it was raining as usual. I was not going to waste another day again. So I called my friend up and went out to look and enquire for equipment. It was fruitful. Got a few products in mind. The two mixers on my mind are Technics mixers and Behringer mixers. I also went to look for a speaker that can at least channel the music out of my decks. So far so good. Hopefully everythings goes smoothly without a hitch. By tomorrow I should make my mind up and go purchase them. Yesterday work was good. Music was much better and there was not much of a crowd. The rain kind off dampened my mood towards the end because I was asked to do umbrella service. Which means escorting the clubs customers to the nearest shelter. Almost every customer was complaining about Singapore's weather. Well nothing much I can do but smile and nod in approval. Well that is about it. Yeah kind of boring I know.

Reflections: Today there was nothing much to think about because my mind was filled with questions regarding my equipment. If I were to go into detail with that you probably turn your moniter off. Yesterday one thing in particular pissed me off. My club believes in service. Trust me the service there is really of high standard. One of the services we do offer is umbrella service, where we escort customers with umbrellas in an event of a rain to the nearest shelter. I was looking forward to umbrella service because Ms. T and frens were in town and I wanted to escort them but they decided to brave the rain and go home. What a waste. Okay back to my story. At the end of the night, customers go home clean and dry. On the other side we servers are all drenched in rainwater and it really is uncomfortable to have to do out closing and eat our supper. My company should at least thought of the staff and provide us raincoats. I raised this issue to my Operation Manager and he said he will look into it. So the next time round if it rains again I hope we at least get raincoats.

Oh yes, yesterday this guy approached me and started talking to me. He asked how long I have worked here and stuff like that. He even dropped a bombshell by saying he is gay. As for me I was not shocked, I told him nicely that its okay because you are still human after all. I mean why discriminate a person because of ones sexuality. Upon my heart-moving statement he placed his hands on my shoulder and I was sensing the wrong vibe. Luckily his friends pulled him away. Doesn't pay to be good. Well that is that is all folk. See you around. Bye.
