Hello! Commis!!!!

Finally!!! I have a job! I am now a casual commis 3 for Dusit Hotel Nikko's The Cafe. And I am not only thrown into one corner peeling sacks of carrots or onions but I am actually out on the buffet line serving noodles at the noodle station! HAHAHA

The kitchen was a bit of a nasty shock for me. I've become accustomed to the standards at school that I thought it will be sort of the same at work. Well it isn't. My Chefs are a bunch of kids! They're like grown ups playing in a sand box that is the kitchen. They find it amusing that I only nod and look at them while they joke around or kid around with me.

Seriously, it was kind of surprising. But when service time comes, there is not much joking around until after the food has been bussed out. It's tiring! Hot kitchen, heavy clogs and eight hours of being on your feet! But it's all worth it. At the end of the day I am satisfied of the work I've done. I feel like I was very productive.

Although I had a first day booboo! I didn't bring my clogs on that day!!! What a first impression!!! So I was sent home to get some proper work clothes and was thrown into the afternoon shift!!! I am working 6 days a week from 2 PM - 10 PM. My day off is on a Monday. Which leaves me no time for my other new found hobby and source of inspiration and another creative playground, photography. But oh well, I will find a way!

I love it! I love everything about my new found passion! It's my miracle. And I will be forever grateful to God for giving me this oppurtunity.
