Mustafa experience

for the last weekend i was deployed from Marina Square to Mustafa instead because the sales was bad.

Mustafa mustafa...
where do i start?
i was lost for the first day of work. that place is like a huge ants colony. ALOT ALOT of items not to mention the crowd too. i was trying to find my way round Mustafa my first day, i tell you, all the blocks look the same! the supervisor show me around like the staff entrance + the clock in area and my work station, they are at 2 different block. or was it the same? i seriously can't remember, just TIKAM laaaa! :D

my colleagues now are all Indians. at first i thought i'll be left in one emo corner, i'm the 2nd chinese there apart from that guy selling china phone. but no. all the staff there are very friendly and funny. sometimes i might miss their joke but i'll just laugh along like i understand.

the way they work here is pretty laid back i'll say. at Marina square i need to do alot of Hard Selling to the customer, at Mustafa that is not the case. all i need to say is "Video very GOOD! Got MP3, RADIO, ALL HAVE! Camera very GOOD!!!" that is it! hhahahaha, that was what i was told to say by my Indian colleague! HAHAHAHAHA.....

they told me the more i talk the more they will ask, and most of them just enquire and not buying. keeping in mind that most of the customer there are foregin workers from India & Bangaladashi. english is not something that are very good at, simple yet precise words will do.

thank God for the counter that seperate me from the crowd, it can get really intimidating when a whole lot just crowd around the glass panel to look at the phones.

being there, i witness alot of their culture way in showing brotherly love towards each other. hold hands is nothing, hugging each other waist like how a couple will cuddle each other is common too. i am fine with that, the thing i can't stand was the part they adjust their discomfort in the crotch area right infront of you or sometimes scratching it....

*roll eye ball to the back of my socket, can't bare to see it*

it was so gross.

apart from their culture openness, i am cool with everything else. it is very easy to close sales in Mustafa, i sold 20 sets just on Sunday while 5 sets on Sat. ;) the promotion is ending.... means my contract is ending too. :( i like the pay, easy job where can i find promoter job like this again?
