Parents

 As a cashier, I get to see lots of people. Some good things that I observed. When a son came with his dad to pay the bill, the dad teaches his son what to do with the app vouchers and payments. When a daughter accompanied the dad, the daughter teaches the dad how to use the app vouchers. 

What warms me was a woman who always brought his age old father to buy ice-cream. The dad will want to eat it on the spot after payment, then after a bite, the daughter will hold his hand and lead him out of the store. The dad can still walk but very slowly. The ice-cream she bought was on sale though. At 9.90 for 3. Haagen Dazs.

Some kids say all kinds of stories to persuade the parents to buy snacks for them. Reasonably saying why they needed the snacks. Haha. Listen to yourself! as if it is reasonable but to the adults, we all know. Still, they were so cute. What you did to get what you want?

Some kids were really still in their parents arm. Just look at you getting their payments done with their big innocent eyes. Why are babies so cute?

Some real cool customer really cool. When asked if they wanted to buy a donation package, they just say ok. Then paid for it without hesitating. Some hesitate but believed in doing good. Some don’t. Some hesitate forever like me. To buy or not to buy. Wait till one day I rich bah. Some wants to but don’t have enough money or points. I guess they wanted to do good too. Most good people were not rich too. Probably gave too much. You have 100, you gave 90… She spent less than the packages compared to the donation. Not for me to judge and whatever reason to give or not, it is up to them since it is their money. Not their fault if they cannot donate. They might have kids to raise and old parents to take care. They can take care of themselves already better than most.

Cuts

 I finished doing my wallet without cutting myself. I got a poke from the needle though but it was alright. Only that one time. The rest I found a way to prevent that. The cutting mat has been very useful and now it’s filled with holes. Today I got my first cut of the year. Fengshui’s problem. I was taking something from the dark corner near the kitchen sink at work. Was opening the carton for umbrella. Someone asked me to take. When I was cashier, I normally took it myself instead of calling someone unless really necessary. I have cut away the tape but the tape side sick to the wall so I pulled it and I couldn’t remember but just felt sharp pain on my left palm. My left hand gave way after the cover flipped open and the knife on the right hand slashed my palm. Sigh, I should have close it before pulling the cover. It failed to open the first time so I slide it out to cut a second time but worry it didn’t open and kept it that way. Should have trust my instinct.  I also think ...

Bank

 A bank asked me to apply for their job. I was a bit skeptical whether it was scam. After a few conversations, it seemed legit. They needed my updated resume. I didn’t have. Go back to my old canva, then dragged out the old one. I realised I have a Word document ones after I sent the pdf ones. I should have just used the Word document because it was the latest. Anyway, I don’t have finance background so I might not get it. Based on their requirements, I think there are lots of things I have not yet explored. However, if I can finish my task earlier, maybe I can go for a test or two to see what are the skills that I lacked of. I felt a bit off because I just kept on doing uwp… I also needed to back up against my current job because I felt insecure about it, based on the recent months I was there. I am not sure if they want me there just to solve few issues then once solved then don’t need me anymore. Because every moment I was there, I felt a bit like it. They are also spending quit...

Peculiar

 Not sure how I should feel. Good or bad. Mum used to be very good with tech. Well, yesterday, have spent two hours over the phone just to help her log in to my account. In the end, she only managed to download and update her Netflix app on her iPad. iPad actually a bit different from Android so she has lots of difficulty linking App Store is equivalent to Google Play… When I said search, she literally search by her eyes… I cannot help but laugh at myself. Programmer and code did the same. I am not around so I can only do these for her. Sigh… Should have gave her a tutorial during CNY…  My screen is back… The touch screen I bought previously so that it is easier for me to do work. The pc that I bought previously is a good investment in the end. Thank God or the manufacturer that both working fine so far.
