keke...
things took a turn pretty quickly here... shermeen mentioned a tuition centre in sengkang looking for english tutors... asked me to try it out... since i got distinction in english for the 'o's... even though i got C5 for GP prelims... called the guy up... realised that the centre was just across this little road... went for the interview... guy suggested drafting worksheets instead... i'm guessing my occasional stutter and lack of fluency is to be blamed... maybe he thinks i'll scare the students too badly with my face... oh well... behind-the-scenes is good enough for me... talked a little more... and BAAM! i'm starting work at 2.30 today... pay aint fantastic... but i least i wont get robbed by the public transport system everyday... nor do i have to spend a bomb reinventing my 'lack-of' wardrobe... didnt ask him abt dress code... but i think my present wardrobe will survive two weeks at least... best part... i get 2 hrs off in the afternoons... where i can continue my 'terrorise-ben-k-while-he-is-at-work' occupation... and save money by eating at home... how can it get better than this??? but its true i wont get as much experience compared to working in big firms in town... you win some, you lose some... at least i'm glad i'm finally employed... yummy... no more 'persuade-your-employed-frenz-to-pay-for-your-next-meal'... lest i be the next victim... no more 'sleep-till-12-noon-till-ur-butt-rots-away'... but most importantly... no more 'andrew-foo-the-evil-coach'... everyone asked why i didnt start work earlier... it's because i never realised andrew was THIS bad earlier... ben k. you'll get your coffee soon... trust me... ----Stef stopped rambling at 13:01 --Link to Post |
