Now currently I'm jobless again, and actually I have decided not to sell the multipurpose solution again at roadshows due to some personal reasons which I shan't say here, even though the pay is good yes. Nicholas couldn't accompany me go for the walk-in interview at Paragon today, so I guess we shall be going tomorrow. Today also marks the second day of my break at home, which I need after the tiring Sitex show.
Hiya.

SITEX 2007 - 29/11/2007 - 02/12/2007
Working for AAAs Com/Palm was definitely a great experience for me. Even though the pay might have been pittance, but it was still a joy making friends with my colleagues. At the end of the day these people will remain, but the money won't. These people are (not in any order) : Alvin the one who always kachiao people, Aaron the Boss's son, Michelle the person whom I go home with every night, and Dick (serious! his name is Dick), or Liao Dick as his full name is, and Solyh who came only on the weekend. Out of these people 4 of the guys play basketball. There were the rest of my colleagues such as Philip, Si Liang, Ying Jie, and managers Amelia and Vincent, but I guess I won't be keeping much in contact with them anyway.
Okay so I had a good start to the first day with 6 sets sold. Went for bubble tea with Michelle at night at 201. The second day was a relief, I didn't manage to sell any sets until 5pm all the way to 9pm during which I manage to sell 5 sets, saving me from disaster. The third day was horrible, only sold 1 set, lucky for me (unlucky for my teammates due to the group system) I was saved from disaster as well. The last day was hell, I only managed to sell 3 sets after 4.30pm, and it remained at 3 sets until 9.30pm. Vincent and Amelia didn't say much because we had put in hard work.
So yes, went for supper at Bedok 85 with them on the last night. This is the first time I tried the famous bak chor mee there even though I went to school for four years which was near there. We ordered bbq stingray and oyster omelette as well. Ended up missing the last bus and had to take a cab home. I just woke up at 12pm and my legs are half dead.
Will be looking forward to more IT shows next year. Hopefully I'll get another chance to work with these guys again.

Updates about my (sucky) life so far:
1. First day at work at Nanyang Optics Parkway Parade yesterday. Let's just say that there were more people asking for directions to Borders/toilet/food court than people asking about my products. In the end sold 2 sets of Complete Easy Rub only. Can't blame me la, the ulu place who will go specially to buy contact lens solution. Nicholas had it better, he got a REAL roadshow whereas mine and yiheng's was in-store promotion. As a result we sold 2 sets each only. Met up for supper with them at KFC White Sands and exchanged pointers. Lol and I saw many familiar faces too. There was Huixin and Grace and co., table tennis boys, and Mr Chua and his gf and finally, Mr Chai's dog (some know who he is). Quite amusing, indeed. Only thing was having to stand for 10 hours straight with a half hour dinner break in between. It gets boring after awhile with no friends to speak to. End of story.
2. Happy to befriend someone I had added on msn eons ago but didn't really talk to. Noob! :D
3. First match of the BBAXN U-20 League today. Went to ACS Barker Road for the match against Nee Soon East club which unfortunately we lost. Good thing is we had improved.
4. Family dinner at chinese restaurant to celebrate two birthdays. Sumptous.
5. Product training tomorrow at Millenia Towers (where the hell is that!) and gotta accompany Jordon to interview with Nic and YH tomorrow too.
6. Prom's coming up, followed by SITEX2007 (KACHING!)
Good day.
