I worked with Denis from alter boys at a convention event held by prudential at suntec for $50 a day with only 3-5 hours of work on the 16th and 17th Jan...
on the 1st day of work in preparation for the event, we were assigned to paste stickers on glass bottles, we had like almost 1500++ bottles to paste stickers on, quite slack, we could chit chat as we work to past the time... started work at 11am, finished at around 3plus in the afternoon...
we were then briefed on our role to play on the convention day itself, my jaw droppes when we were told to reach the next day at 6.45am, which mean Denis and I had to grab the 1st train of the day...
then denis and I went to citylink mall's sakae sushi for dinner, I was very dissappointed to be greeted by the very limited selection for the sushi buffet they offer, no oysters, only 1 sashimi allowed, no free flow of fruit juices, no grilled eel, all my favs when it comes to dining at a Japanese cuisine restaurant... I would rather eat at Hougang Plaza's suki sushi restaurant which offers a much wider variety of choices...
I got to hougang train station just in time for the earliest train available, arrived at the convention on time at 6.45am...
apparently there were some "games" booths at the convention prior to the the convention for the staffs of prudential... Denis and I were running an archery booth along with a babe from NUS...
I got a shock when I saw this guy, guess who is he?...
well he is non other then CORNELIUS...
I was like whoah, what are you doing here, not knowing that he works for prudential...
technically we work for only 2 over hours for $50... the rest of the time was spent idling around and observing the convention taking place... the president and people higher giving their talks and delivering their annual report of 2005 and projection for 2006...
I also met my dad's cousin, what a small world indeed...
well for all the work done above we got ourselves $100...
