Still working as the New Year approaches. When friends and relatives ask me where I work, it seems to be a rather difficult question for me to answer. 'Cos I haven't been in a school for long. Travelling to other branches to work rather often.
Started off at Swiss Cottage Sec. Worked a week or so, went to Fuhua Pri to help for 3 weeks. Returned to Swiss the week before their registration to help in prepararion. I was there all the way till school reopen. Then sent to Fuhua Pri again. However, the manager is very nice. She took me to the publisher to help do stock check quite freuquently since the end of december. It was an eye opener and my knowledge broaden quite a lot. How books come and go, why no books for sale etc... Then she brought me to most of her schools under her charge. It was like wow, more than 10 schools.
Sent to Chao Chu Kang Sec from the start of this week. Will be there for the week I think. Yesterday returned to Riverside with her. Coincidently, the new bookshop was also under her charge. So I finally returned, as a worker, not an instructor nor student. The feeling, a bit weird. Junoirs look at me in astonishment as I was at the carpark alone taking some books out. Quite funny.
School will be starting soon. My holiday adventure with the bookshops is draws to an end. Quite a really interesting job with many new things to be learn everyday. Will join the work again if I have the time next year. =)
