Now I have been working there for two weeks. My flatmate asked whether I feel more ease now. I said that it is to a degree, but I still feel nervous in the first couple of phone calls when every time I go to work. Many things happened for the past two weeks; I never thought that there can be so highly dynamic and chaotic for a small restaurant like this. I met some interesting people and received few weird phone calls. For instance, this Friday I got a call ordering ‘dog fried rice’ and I got pissed and seriously considering swearing over the phone (but am I allowed? I wondered.). Last night, a guy called in and placed a big order with a genuine fake foreign assent, which made me feel suspicious. Or like last week, a drunken guy insisted buying two dishes by only paying 5 pounds. Well, it is a fun job, isn’t it (!)
Notwithstanding it is not a highly labour-consuming work, I still feel tired and my brain cannot function well the next morning. Furthermore, I do sense clearly it costs a lot of my time of studying. Not that I am a really hard-working person, if compare to other people I known. However, since I wasn’t that type of person, which means that I need a lot warm up before I can actually get down to study. And now most of my free time is gone, and it is difficult to read something without interrupted in the restaurant, thus I do sense a clear crisis about how to maintain my job and study more than usual.
Life is full of surprises, and you can never get two things to fit into your expectation. ☂
