*Dedications* 2.15am
suddenly feel like postinG again.. cuz im talkin to daRren right now n realise tt he's starting sch sOon which means he will either not work or work like once a week in settlers le...
juz starting to rmb how i came to settlers.. i was looking for jobs on the Classified aft i left JC. i came across settlers de Ad on newspaper n went to sign up online. it was onli a month lata did Colin contact me regarding the joB. i was close to rejecting him as i alreadi was working @ Chikuyotei (Jap restaurant) then. But he persuaded me to go dwn n try n said tt the workshift is flexible. thus i went dwn one day aft my work @ Chikuyotei.
the ppl i went to interview with were fizah, bessy n another guy. i fell in love with the place when i 1st step into it. n Colin was a super friendly boss compared to my boss at the Jap restaurant. Esp the concept of tt place, was super new n fun for me. so i agree to work though my starting pay was $4.50/hr.
in the end onli mi n fizah stayed for the job, she a full timer, while im a part timer. actually i dislike fizah the 1st time i saw her.. but eventually we became the best of frens. we shared everythinG.. i told her all of my secrets n i tink she told me all of hers? aniwaes we realli shared everythinG.. joys n tears in the cafe. at tt time mostly we were the 2 ppl in the cafe, together we chin siang n chin wee.
still rmb when i came in the staff tt were alreadi there were: Javen, Roderick, Darren, Yan Xiang, Chin Siang, Chin wee, Weide, Danielle, Evonne. I hope i din miss anyone ouT. n the 4 bosses are,
colin,
justin,
david,
kk n
kC. duNno y but i juz felt v bonded to them. i came dwn to settlers even though i wasnt on shift. i buy lunch for fizah when i go dwn to settlers during my off days n stay to help out n chat with her. but tt was seldom cuz i was working almost EVERYDAY in settlers. Morning i will work at Jap restaurant, and ard 3 i will go over to settlers n work till 11pm.. those were the days when i chiong til siaO n experience for the 1st time wat is EXHAUSTION.
during tt time i guess fizah, ching siang, chin wee n i were best buddies bahhs.. we always stay overnite to plae games, go for karaoke, go play pool. we realli stay overnite alot of times. one time even went to chin wee hse to play mahjong overnite.
n i started poly.. n i was v busy with club n squash during year 1.. started to frequent settlers lesser. still rmb the 1st time i missed staff nite. Chin Siang n Chin wee they all were there waiting for me to start playin games, but i totally forgot abt it as i was doing my report at home. n they called but i told them i cldnt make it, n aftwards i was quite upset with myself.
aft tt everything start to fall apart le. new ppl came in, n i work onli once a week.. i dun come dwn for staff nite animore. Chin Siang went into army. Fizah left the cafe. Left onli Cw n me but we seldom talk le..
but i oso got to noe ppl like alvin, whu quickly became my gd fren.
those ppl tt came in n walk out of my life during my stay in settlers are: Fizah, Wansi, Druce, Caris, Leon, Mark.. and a few more suddenly i cant rmb..
Those that joined settlers and are still here are: Alvin, Sam, Willis, Janice, Weiquan, Edward, SuetYee, Hwee Ming, Pearline, Guan Jie n a few others im not so close with.
There was a point in time i quit settlers becuz of some stuff that happen. i quitted, but i recieve a msg asking me to go back to work, or else i will become veri poor.. hahaha so i went back. and i was glad i did..
then not long aft the management changed.
Kaejer,
Eric,
Steven,
Wei Kok.. but the concept didnt change. the special thing bout working in settlers is the relationship b/w the bosses n the workers.. can sae is veri friendly.. they are more like our frens rather than bosses. and then as time goes by Chin wee oso left le.. go serve the nation. all my bestest buddies all go liaO.. left me there.. but im glad there are still some ppl whom i can realli "click" with there.
hope i can continue to work there til i grow oLd! hahhaas :]
