I was a MAID today

First working experience in glasgow, i would say it was great!! It's the very first pounds i earned since i came to UK and i'm very proud of myself!lol...except that i really did feel like a maid, serving people, doing the heavy cutleries and plate liftings and all.

It was a christmas party (a company's i assume), and everyone was dressed up so nicely!

The upsides were that i worked with a really good waitress which did most of the heavy lifting..=P And that the table i served had some very nice people who volunteered to pass the soups and so i didn't have to walk as much. Cuz the grand ballroom i worked in consists of rectangle instead of the standard round table. Each table had 40 seatings.

The downside was that there were some weird people who kept asking for food although they've already been served, many rather 'BIG' people who impeded my walking, and the fact that they really waste food. The main dish was turkey, and some of the people just chewed a bit and stopped eating. While for the dessert, a lot just ate less than 5% and left it there. I threw away soooooooo much of food, so much so that i feel so bad!!

Anyway i secretly took some photos of the ballroom..hehe..so here they are..=)






These are mint choc i 'took'. It was part of the dessert and many people didn't take them. We took it back into the kitchen and was told to throw them all away!! HEY it's such a SIN to throw food away! And these are wrapped in foil plus they're CHOCOLATES!! So i mati-mati also took them although i didn't have pocket. (I hid them all underneath my shirt cuz i tucked my shirt in)

And on our way back via train, we saw this on the seats..hehe so i decided to take a photo of it. Mind you, it's USED!lol


Kaai yirng's one??=P She seems happy!!@.@
