Today will be my 3rd day of working in the supermarket. I wished to write something in the passed two days which is my 1st and 2nd days of working, but I was too tired to do so. LoL!! Today my working hours will start from 1pm to 10pm. Actually, I would call myself a "stand-er" more than a promoter. Because my job is seriously just standing there. Ohya! I've changed into a GMV section promoter, not a 'back to school' promoter anymore.
So obviously my customer will be only those uncles and some unty that buy for their husband. Honestly, in the 1st day I standing there, I can't even sell out ONE. Then I asked the Indian girl who is also a promoter for other brand that standing in the section next to me. You guess what she told me. She said my brand or my section will close in two weeks time because the sales is too bad. (I was like HARR???) She also told me that the promoter before me is a Malay girl. But is this the reason? haha...(maybe part of it) For me I think the price is not suitable or not affordable for the customer here. Because this supermarket is known as a low price supermarket while the price of the clothes in this GMV section is all above 100 ringgits. An ugly T-shirt with high quality material cost about 140 ringgits. Who is gonna buy this when there is no festival coming soon. haih...
One of the reason I find a job is because I'm too bored sitting at home. And now only I realize its even more bored working as a "stand-er" there. Until yesterday only I sell out 1 T-shirt which cost 109 ringgit and a long pants. For your information, yesterday is Sunday. And I can already imagine how bad the sales can be in the weekdays. haizzZ... "Time really go slow when you are watching it every minutes!" This is what I learned as a "stand-er" there. hahaa...
I'm recently reading this book titled "Rich father, Poor father". It's actually a mandarin edition and I just translate the title directly. XD... I believe some of you may have read this book before. For you who like reading and never read this book before, then I recommend to you. I have not finish yet but I found this book is interesting. The story comes like that. There is a boy who is only 9 years old wish to learn how to be rich from his rich father. For your information, the rich father is not his real father but his friend's father. His real father is the poor one. So at first this rich father want the boy to work for him and pay him a few cents per hour.
Then this boy works for 1 months and started to feel unfair and angry with this low salary job. So he decide to find the rich father to get a higher salary. (And this is the part I like-->) The rich father told him that he is glad that the boy feel angry with this low pay job. He says, "if you accept this low pay salary happily then I won't be able to teach you how to be rich." He also says, POOR MAN WORKS TO GET MONEY, BUT RICH MAN USE MONEY TO WORK FOR THEM. Then he tell the boy, "I have already bring you to see the future. Now you are 9 years old, and you had the experience of WORKING TO GET MONEY. You only needs to repeat what you have done last month for another 50 years, then you will realize what a lot of people done in their life."
This is definitely true. For many people in this world, they are working, get the salary, and then spending, then working again to get money, and spend it. Then when they do not have enough money to use, they will blame their boss. But actually even their boss willing to pay higher salary, the problem is still there. If your boss pay more, you will spend more, and then blame again. Many people do not realize that the problem is not on the boss, is themself. Is because they do not have the knowledge of using money (financial I.Q). The school is not teaching, your parents may not teach, and some people won't understand this for the rest of their life. "If you can't master it, then you will be the slave of it, be in this circle for your whole life."
