The Art of Getting By








Fake ignorance is also a bliss

Tuesday, June 17, 2008


Ok i just had the 2 most fun days of work, cos i was stationed at the kitchen! woohoo! I didn't understand the rationale of watching the kitchen initially but as you observe, you do learn a lot of things. When you're the top management, you'll never understand what the floor is going through. Start by observing is great. Plus, perks of parking at the kitchen include food tasting! They let me try wagyu beef omgomgomg melt in your mouth! You'll never wanna consume other types of beef. I got a small salad today, the sauce tasted like the sushi tei one because this particular chef used to work there. And i ate tuna belly! I ate tuna belly! It's so unbelievable i have to repeat this sentence. Ravesssssss! And other weird nice sashimi like scallop ahhhh it's nice to have chefs as friends. I'm not just being greedy ok, it's important for research.

But another downside of this job is that while i love to listen to gossips, i know that people also gossip about me. It's worse when some people are simply insecure, and they need to bad mouth others to make themselves feel better. Like in this instance, i made friends with some people, they treated me well, and others got unhappy. I had dinner at the sushi counter and they started telling others i shouldn't be there. It then got passed to my manager who told me it's ok cos i'm new and i dunno the rules. There are in fact some people who are allowed, just that me and him are not included.

Haha! Who say i dunno. I just didn't wanna show cos nobody officially told me that i can't. You're only allowed to break the rule when you're new, if not once then never! At the same time i just wanted to test out to see what would happen, and true enough not surprisingly news spread really fast, by the time i'm done many people already knew i was at the counter.

Pffft. Stupid people think this kinda small matter would hurt me. "Oh isit, nobody told me" was easy enough. Even better still, after this incident i know who to be careful of. Smirks!

I'm only into my second week of work and as a neutral party i already know who doesn't like who, which group of people don't get along with which group. Very interesting. Seriously, i have not even reached my 22nd birthday; this job is merely a stepping stone and a learning experience to my future greater jobs.

So i don't really care. I'm just happy that i got to eat otoro :D Hahahhahaha i'm so childish.
