Patience is a virtue. Well, it sounds true. In my life there are so many times that I have not been patient enough, getting too emotional sometimes. I really need to work out my emotion as well as patience, something that I have to improve. Over the past few weeks, there have been a lot cases in which I was getting too emotional involved but in the end I managed to calm down and control my action. A Chinese proverb once said, “Retreat one step you’ll be able to see the vast sea and borderless sky.” If you be patient and hold your emotion for a while, a better outcome might awaits you sometimes, well most of the time actually because normally you will act without giving a second thought once you are emotional.
In another story, I’m going to list down things that I don’t like to do in DELI (delicatesteen):
- Taking the ice out from the seafood section. It is so heavy and everytime I will hurt my back doing that!
- Taking prawns out from the seafood is so painful to my fingers! Not to mention the freezing cold ice that make my fingers numb!
- Serving Ricotta cheese? Yeah! They are so soft and “fragile”, it is so hard to take them using hand without destroying it.
- Cleaning oven racks that are not soaked more than 1 hour with degreaser.
- Serving Salmon’s head! It is so disgusting when the salmon seems staring at you when you hold it! No! I didn’t kill you, I am just selling you!
- Chickens punch a hole in the bag and the chicken oil is spilling all over the warmer! Gross!
- Serving customers who are very rude, never say thank you and never trust you!
- Serving customers at after 11.30pm is annoying especially they are getting the salad!
- Throwing rubbish! It is so hard to find a bin to throw all the smelly-like-Malulee rubbish! It is as hard as finding a kangaroo meat in the store!
- Cleaning slicer! I always have a dream that I will cut off my fingers using the slicer!

Well, I think there are still more but they are not that significant compared to what I listed above. Ok, time to study for my management exam now. Daaaaaaaaaaaa!
