got a job opening that my fren wants me to fill in.... a waiteressing job at a hotel near my place.. in fact it's very convenient to travel there... and the pay is quite good.. as compared to like sg where the waiters and waiteresses are paid a measly 8 bucks per hour (i think lah) but since they've got minimun wage rate here... the pay is abt 15 bucks per hour on weekdays.. if i remembered correctly that's the pay... still deciding whether i shd take up the job or not to earn extra cash... everyone around me see to be working except me. i feel like a lazy bum sia... hmmm.. i wonder.
well it's not like i'm in desperate need of money or anything like that... cos i have enough. in fact i don't even spend that much since i don't go out often.. most of it is spent on food and my lastest passion, beads!!!! but it's like everyone else is working and i feel like i shd be too, in order to like spend less of my parents' money and more of my own. but i'm also going back to work during my summer break as well.. shd i just concentrate on my studies now and then go back sg and work? or shd i take up the job to gain more work experience and earn the aussie's money? hmmm i wonder... or shd i just hand in the resume that i did on microsoft office resume wizard and see how it goes?
got off the phone with my mom a while ago.. called her to ask her opinion on me taking up a job.. hahahah guess what's the first thing she said to me???? (can u guys guess???) she said:" it's not safe lah!!! later they ask u to send food up to the rooms and then they ask u to provide extra service!!!" and u shd have seen my face... i was like ??!!!???!!?! HUH???!!???!!! what the?!?! (if i were an anime character u wld see question marks all over my head... my eyes squinted small small and a sweatdrop forming at the corner of my forehead.. and in the backgrd, very 'leng' music wld be playing) i mean it's like a decent hotel waiteressing job, and trust my mom to come up with the thought. but i'm not surprised if some hotels do that.. and i really appreciate my mom's concern for me. i mean which mom wld not think of her child's safety right? albeit with less exaggeration yah?! told me to concentrate on my studies cos she didn't not pay so much to send me overseas to work! ahahhaha well i guess i shd really concentrate on my studies... seeing how i really screwed up my last sem's results. and i know that if i were to take up the job i wld be even busier (altho my timetable's pretty slack.. i dunno where all my time goes to.. prob sleeping as some of my frens wld say) and i'm not sure if i can cope with both work and studies...
guess the answer pretty clear now that i've typed it out... but why am i still deliberating with myself? the temptation of earning money is great........... but sleep is even more important than that...... *confusion*
