Today was my first time working afternoon shift for GT, and what do you know, I was asked to stay longer to serve at a private dinner in one of the rooms. Just when I thought there was no overtime in GT, haha.
Anywya I was the runner yet again. I'm so loving it. I wish I was the runner everyday. But today was damn busy cause it's a Saturday, duh. I really got annoyed at this table today because they ordered too much food to fit on their damn table, and they wouldn't make space for the coming dishes. I was like carrying the hotplate toufu and burnt my hand trying to arrange the table and put it down. Idiots. Some of them no I am reaching over their shoudlers but do not even lean to one side to let me pass. Thankfully eriq was at the lower terrace. I managed to get 2 bottles of H20 to drink, haha. That really helped cause it was damn tiring.
Managed to try a bit of the food due to wrong orders sent. Tried the bak kut teh, pizza and other stuff.
So after my break, I proceeded to set up the room for the night's dinner.
The western set menu was great. Managed to try the food also. The cream based pasta with mushrooms, chorizo sausages and cheese was damn good. Managed to eat some in the kithen. Even had foie gras from the other appetizer, yum. To top it off, the guest gave a tip and we all split it. Got $10!!
Greg gave us a lift after that to the main road cause it was already like 10.30. Managed to get home slightly before midnight, and spent the time until now fixing my com and doing my journal. Now that that is over with, time for bed. Working from 12-8.30 tomorrow. Oh greg now owes me 2 1/2 hours. So I will work lesser next time. Yess!! Better than OT pay.
P.S. I hope douglas finally gives me the info tomorrow so I can start writing the report.
