Open Heart!
As I mentioned before, I promote and sell a puzzle/game called Kaleidoscope Classic. I work alone at Myers. So my workplace contacts me by email, and sends my roster by email too. On Sunday, I'm supposed to work untill 7pm, but Myers is open only till 6pm... !?
So... am I supposed to promote and sell the product when there is no one around? Of course not. I emailed my supervisor asking him about it (a real arrogant & cocky guy). Man, I hope he's not reading this... So, now I'm working untill 6pm...
And, I asked him to not give me a shift on the 23rd, since it's my cousin's birthday party. And what do I get!? A shift on the 23rd... Well, the party's from 2pm, and my shift ends at 2... So I guess it's ok...
Can this workplace be any more unorganised!?
They were supposed to send me a sample of a new product, so that I can promote it better. Have I got it? NO...
Sorry to say, but I'm glad that this is just a temporary job... Because I don't think that I can handle this much longer... *sigh*

Oh... and a bit about Myers:
It's a big store in malls. Sells clothing, shoes, perfumes, electronics, kitchenwares, some furnishings, linens, and of course toys. They sell products from different fashion designers and manufactureres... So it's pretty hard to sell people just one specific product.

The job description says to sell atleast 1 product per hour. And if I sell more than that, I get $5 incentive for every product I sell. My arrogant supervisor wants me to sell 1.5 product every hour, so that he can get incentives too. My other supervisor wants me to do more presentations. Presentations are everytime I fully promote the product to a customer.
These things become really hard when my supervisors give me a really bad shift. Yesterday, I was working from 2:30~8pm. Seriously! Who shops during that time!? And especially at the toy department!? I only did 20 presentations!
This job's becoming a bit too much for me... But it gives me something to write about in my resume. Especially because I work without any supervision. That's a real plus point for employers.
And, I have job training for another job this Tuesday. It's for a casual position as a receptionist at a community centre. So, I don't have to sell anything!
\(^o^)/

Sorry that this post became really long. And mostly bad mouthing the company I work for... But other than my cocky supervisor (who's only a few years older than me...), and the sales, it's a really fun job.
