Last day.

Today is my last day of being a waiter.

At the start, it was really a mental torture for me. Nobody knows my background. I was unable to write or read traditional chinese. I got bashed by both my colleagues who are now my friends and many many customers. In addition, there were just too much cantonese phrases I didnt know and at first, people were speaking at a speed I couldnt catch because I am just not use to hearing cantonese that "fast".

I didnt know how to handle them. I had to adapt fast. The culture is totally different.

Soon I adapted to the workplace and I made friends and knew a few customers.

Too bad, I had to leave as soon as I started to enjoy the life here. Now I got to start adapting to another job. A harsher environment with higher expectations.

Its the end of an adventure and the start of another challenge.
