cheap excuse

hospitality industry is one of the most incredible place where the staff can make up so many excuses and faking themselves in front of the guest and everything, they have a lot of departments, in front and the back of the hotel, they have so many divisions, job, and task.. being a banquet server is one of the million tiring yet excited job.. cause you'll have tons of money, you might get more money then a restaurant manager but your job is just setting the table, taking care of the buffet counter, clearing the table and carrying the oval tray.. well you should have the ability to talk and empathize the guest and your associate as well, and you should be able to work with different kind of people and different kind of guests' needs.

me as the fnb supervisor trainee, my job, as what i believe, is to explore the management and how the managerial level handling all of the above, I don't really care about the money that I get, I just want to observe and learn lots of things which are really different one and another that I never been yet. well enough for the cheap talk..

I'd like to tell y'all about a story that I had yesterday while working.. so for these 2 weeks I work as a banquet server.. yesterday, I worked for plated breakfast and a buffet lunch, well I was assigned as the buffet runner, but ended as a soup stole waitress, my job just to pour the soup into the cup, not bowl, then put it in the saucer and give it to the guest.. ahh.. I really not comfortable writing my funny story in english.. should i write it in indonesian then? =p

ahahahha.. mood gw ngetik inggris tiba2 bisa brubah gt.. nyahh.. blom pede sih.. terus klo cerita lewat inggris tuh lucunya klo bisa maenin kata2 n pake slank na mereka, dmn gw blm bisa >.<, bisa na ngebanyol klo cerita langsung aja soalnya bisa pake body language =) jadi tmn2ku.. baca na mulai sini aja yah..

CHEAP EXCUSE

Jadi seperti yg gw uda bilang diatas, 2 minggu ini gw bakal kerja jadi banquet server.. di banquet tuh asli orang na aneh dan lucu2 banget.. mayoritas gw kerja tuh orang spanish, jadi yah klo misalna uda sama mereka kadang mrk suka nyocor aja gt pk spanish, gw berasa kek d peru bukan di amrik. banyak banged gw cerita nyebelin n lucu ttg mereka, tp ntar aja gw ceritain na.. skrg gw maw cerita tentang bang "toro" dl.. Toro itu panggilan buat seseorang, kita sebut sajalah seperti itu, namanya jg mirip2 sih.. nah toro ini tuh staff lama d banquet dan dy jg kek part time gt d resto fine dining tempat gw training sblm gw k banquet..

mari saya jabarkan perangai si Toro, aga tinggi, perut gembul, sudah tua sih, ngmng ga perna nyambung, baik sih sama gw tp banyak basa basi na, sok tau banged, lemot, seenak jidat, n yg paling penting, dy itu maleeesssssss n lambaaannn banged !.. hmm.. terus dy itu pake kacamata, kek kacamata baca gt terus dicantolin di leher, bergelantungan kek nenek2 pake kalung permata bulet2.. jadi klo ada sesuatu,, kek maw baca menu ato BEO gt, dy pake kacamata, palanya dongak n gayanya yg "hmm.." sok inteligent gt..

nah, gw pernah sekali di train sama si toro ini, beuh.. emosi jiwa raga soul nation ! ntar de gw ceritain, beda topik nyahahaha... intinya.. kmrn ini gw kudu kerja lagi bareng dy, ga 1 station sih, gw kerja jd buffet runner n dy jaga meja, kerja gw tuh nuangin sup n liad klo makanan di buffet counter uda abis kudu d top up.. jadi urutannya, pas tamu masuk dari pintu, langsung k buffet counter, terus di akhir buffet itu ada lah stole soup saia,

dipertengahan lunch.. tiba2 si toro datang menghampiri... oia,, 1 lagi.. gaya dy tuh sherlock abis klo lagi jalan, kek yg wondering around gt, terus tangan diblakang, "hmm..hmm..." gt d.. padahal mah jalanna cmn ngelingker..  ahem.. yah dy menghampiri stole ku.. terus blng sama gw "eh.. cara nuang sup lo salah.. kalo nuang mesti gini..jgn gini.." kekna sama aja.. dongo ! NGAPAEN JG LO NGAJARIN GW CARA NUANG SUP.. ih emosi dlm hati, dluar na sih gw cmn "oh.. gile lo pinter abis !".. gw cmn bengong liad dy begitu.. terus dy nuangin sup sendiri k 2 mangkok.. gw terus nanya "lo ngapaen?".. dy blng "ini tamu gw ada yg minta sup".. begok.. terus dy jalan ke 1 meja d tenga2 ruangan gt, n kekna dy nyadar klo gw sama tmn gw lagi meratiin dy, terus dy pura2 nawarin sup k tamu gt 2 orang.. ya jelas tamunya gamaw lah.. klo misalnya tu tamu maw jg bisa jalan sendiri k stole gw ga ada 2 meter.. terus dy nengok k gw n naekin pundaknya gt.. miringin palanya..mukanya dibikin muka penyesalan.. ee.. terus dy taro itu 2 sup k load tray nya.. dibawa kblakang.. n dimakan sendiri..

gubrag aduhai.. blng aja klo tu sup buat lo sendiri.. buat apa pake blaga akting nawarin tamu segala.. yah maksutnya.. muka gw bole cina n gw masi muda.. tp gw ga segampang itu di tipu.. ihh.. asli de dongdot berat ni org..
