Working experience

I just finished my 3 day stint working as a sales promoter with Hugo Boss and boy .... and i dead tired. These days i don`t seem to have as much energy as i had in the past. I used to be able to work full shifts, from 9.30 am till 11pm then go out for a late night coffee or pool with my friends later on. I would reach home at about 2am and worked full shift the very next day for maybe like 3 consecutive days before i would drop dead but i can`t seem to do all these now. I used to be able to sleep 4 hours a day and still function normally in the day time but now even with 6 hours of sleep i can still be a walking zombie....Why ah ??? cannot be old so soon right i am only 21 going 22!!!! O_o  Maybe i should reflect abit and do some adjustments to by bio clock and inject some energy and zest into the monotonous life i am having right now.....
 
The 3 days of work has been pretty amusing to me. Life as a retailer is rather similar to that of an actor. I mean before the store opens we are cleaning the counters, checking stocks, chatting, playing with our goods, lying down.... then just before the store opens, there will be an announcement to get us into positions. Its something like a " ready action go !!! " kinda thing. Then throughout the day, we must act smilely and nice .....
smile smile smile ..... even if the customer looks like a pig or when she is bitchy...
laugh laugh at all the cold jokes that they sometimes give,
act knowledgeble.... even if u dun have a damn clue what the hell they want,
act cool even when they make some comments that makes u wanna punch them,
and.........
 make the product damn nice or cool .... even if u personally think it smells like some 100 day fermented youghurt that makes even my dog puke in disgust.........
 
all of these .....all for the sake of sales ...and my commission.... unscrupulous me...........
 
I learn some pretty cool stuff as well regarding women`s makeup.
A women`s makeup box, something damn complicated, lotsa stuff inside each with a specific use ... really it reminds me of a surgeon`s surgery tool satchet.
They got small casings of different coloured stuff inside where they use a brush to apply it to their face. The colour variety is amazing.... from hot pink to Crimson red to matt honey ........ so many colours aiyo ... why not just stick to a few basic colours??? seriously.... i think some colours don`t have much difference also... no need to mar fan lah ....
They got this big brush to apply to the cheeks ...so they can fake a blush and look embrasses at everything, or make their face look so smooth that even the mosquito slips off. They got smaller brush for the eye area... called mascara supposingly to make the eyes look bigger. Hmmm.......
Or is that eye shadow ...... when the women stays up all night watching and crying over some silly korean soap. This can cover up the eye bags and red ard the eye area and make them look fresh the next day
They got nail polish ...super alot of colours one .....if not applied with skill will look like peeling paint coming off a chinatown shophouse
Lipsticks.... interestingly comes in 3 modes.... glossy, semi-gloss and matt. eh........ think its a personal preference kinda thing ...cannot think of what functions each can do.
They got this small brush ...to come up the eye lashes so that can get something like Zhang Ziyi`s eye  lashes....nice!!!
There is tweezers.... they use this to pluck eyebrows make it shapely so that wun be so bushy look like Osama like that.
then if u no skill puck also pluck too much, eyebrow outa shape or worst still, accidentally shaven off ....don`t worry ...got these pencils there ....with mirror and a steady hand ...u can draw back your eyebrows and Hooo la!!!!! These pencils come in many colours also ....so u can choose some eyebrow colour then match with your dyed hair.... so cool right....
 
Now i also start to wonder ........ lets say a women puts alot of makeup, then later in the day when she goes home ...then washes her face....woah .... everything flows into the basin. Now ....looks rather gross rite... a mixture of alot of colours stuff into the basin ....yucks......
 
Ok lah ...before all the girls start to scold me for writing all these.... ok lah ...girls go through alot of trouble to put on makeup and look good. So lah .... u all guys try to appreciate abit lo .... : P
