Trouble brewing...

shld i define it as trouble or problem???? contemplating to tell or not.

anyway, update first

went to woke this afternoon and recieve a huge news. basically now there are officially 9 dept under me. and Tess is my helper. let me list them down - Toys, Recreation, Audio, Stationery, Books, Photo Frames, Confectionary, Grocery & Drinks. and for u guys info, that is almost half of my shop size. considering i onli started out with 2 alise of shelves, now is like 10 freaking alises, and half of my back storeroom. goodness.

of all that dept, the worst is actually stationery. considerin the fact that my Original Toys, Recreation and Audio is under control, the remaining are more or less organised. Stationery alsie is the worst of the entire shop. and the stock that is in the storeroom, is well known to be falling over everywhere.

now i realli gotta plan out the layout of stationery bay. have to redo it and restack the entire storeroom. goodness. well, it not a realli bad ting, as i will not worry that i wun be given enuf hrs per week to work. more den enuf man. it just gonna be real hard work, but at least i have Tess with me. the senior team member, rather den getting newcomers which i seriously no time to train them now. will Tess be able to tolerate my perfectionist style of doin tings? well, that is up to time to decide on that.

anyway, sales is pickin up real fast, and gettin busier everyday. hopefully i will be able to fully conc on doing my job well, and get ready for the awaited promotion straight after xmas. i realli need that.

oh ya, was at the register today, when this old lady came to purchase sth from the shop. when i look at her, a tinge of hrtache actually went thru me. well, she onli had 7 bucks on her, and she was contemplating whether to get this xmas soft toy for her grandson. which cost 3 bucks. she was holding on to a bottle of shampoo that cost 4 bucks. while she was fiddling in her purse to get the money out, i realise that she is a stroke victim, as her hands were shivering real bad. the only time when her eyes shone was when she told me that the soft toy was for her grandson, other den that, i see thru the eyes and realise that there seem to be layers and layers of mist, where everyting seems lost and the grandson is the onli light in her life. this realli made me wonder, why did she still hav to work at KFC as a cleaner at her age, and the love that she had for her grandson realli touched me. can see that she is someone who will spulrge on her grandson even till the last cent she had on her. no credit card, no bankcard, onli dollar coins in a battered purse. no branded stuffs, no fancy stuffs, just a handbag that seems to hav gone thru wear and tear.

she was looking at the chocs that was at the counter, and looked back into her purse. can see the disappointment that she had written across the face. the pack of choc onli cost 1 buck. haiz. i looked at her, i feel helpless, coz i cant pass that choc off. well, it realli make me appreciate what i hav. realli.

tink abt those ppl who chase after branded stuffs, those ppl who are not self contented, those ppl who spend every single cent on useless tings? haiz, that is the reality of real world. on one hand, there are ppl who find happiness in very basic simple stuffs, while on the other hand, ppl chasing after unrealistic goals.

just a scene that i cant seem to forget.

gotta go rest, had a freakin long day today and tml. nitez peeps.
