Some customers are a menace.
On friday , this asshole made me super duper pissed when he marched up to my counter just when i was taking a breather from the non-stop stream of crowd and barked at me in the most condescending way possible
"Can someone clear my table now ?"
No "please" , no "thank you" , no nothing.
He had this what-the-fuck-do-you-think-you-are-doing-instead-of-clearing-my-table expression.
Kan ni nah !!!!
So i went to his table and cleared it resentfully.
It didn't end there.
He came back to order his drinks and while he was still in the queue , his mom came up and making sure that her voice was loud enough for it to be within my earshot , said to him
"Why nobody clean our table har ?? Still dirty leh."
The son gave me a murderous glance that focused on me and replied , in an even louder voice.
"I THOUGHT I ASK SOMEONE TO CLEAR IT LIAO HAR?"
I rolled my eyes and trudged back to the table with a cloth and guess what.
The tiniest flake of crossaint crumb stared at me and it was alone.
WTF?!!!!!!!!
I swear it wasn't dirty at all apart from that tiny miniscule crumb.
I really wanted to flick my cloth at that mother-and-son pair.
He was a fugly local in his early forties and totally looked the part of a mummy's boy , his old-looking rag-like tee tightly tucked into his super short bermudas and the ghastly combination of cheapo leather shoes with loose white socks .
They left me really moody for awhile and as i chewed my cud , suddenly this Japanese customer walked up to me and placed a tray laden with empty cups and plates on my counter and bowing slightly , he thanked me and left before i could say anything.
What a stark contrast !!!!
I'm tellin ya , a simple thank you really makes a world of a difference.
Would your mouth be stricken by some flesh-eating disease after thanking me when i return you your change or clear the tables for you ?
Or returning me a greeting or in the very least , a smile when i greet you ?
I have seen some locals roll their eyes when i greet them.
But i'm glad to report that courtesy is becoming a trend nowadays in locals so yeah.. it ain't THAT bad.
Anyway.
It was painful to work on a fri when you think about all the fun you will be missing out as you slog.
11pm felt so far away.
In a strange turn of events , i didn't meet up with Ros and Co. @ Zouk after all and ended up meeting E and woahhhh.
Club-hopping on a friday night sial.
First stop was Double-O where i embarrassed myself because the minimum age for ladies on Fri is 21 and we didn't realise it until the door bitch asked for my IC and she informed me apologectically about the house rule.
Sua lor..
So we headed to Liquid Room next and to be honest i was quite apphrehensive about it because i wasn't sure if i would like the music and Dav told me that there was some sorta DJ spinning competition going on.
Cutting queues never felt more fun when we just entered without paying and queuing as E frequents there , or so he denies.
The crowd was sort of all grown up and executives there for a night of partying after all those number-crunching and paperwork and it was damn crowded balls !
Didn't hang around there for long , we left after finishing my jug of Vodka red bull ( which surprisingly was pleasant on the palette but eh packed quite a punch ! ) and his booze .
Drove to China black where we went in for free again ( i think ) and cutting the queue because his friend was a member .
Ahhhhh. Good ol' China black.
First thing i saw was Scott the Giant dancing away on the ledge and I greeted a few familiar faces like Esther , Bong, etc.
We continued drinking ,the world around me started to revolve and everything was pleasantly hazy and whatever that happened after that was a whirl and its coming back to me in bits and pieces. ( liquor , ciggs and fatigue = memory loss )
Woooo.
Vodka Red bull has found a new fan -
ME !
