Trials
This past year have been very trying.
I must admit i have been very bruised by everything that had happened.
The house issue has kinda transform me into a little more unforgiving and untrusting person than before.
I felt and still feel that i was taken advantage of, shouted and threatened by the person's mother, lied in my face and on top of that not given an apology.
I was threatened by the person's girlfriend and on top of that shifted out of the place, paid the rent and on top of that went to stay at a backpackers. Not to mention having to go to a court tribunal to get myself out of the rental contract.
Pfft. Ha! what can i say?
Alas, the fine dining restaurant i was working in closed down on us without warning. We were literally thrown on the street without any notice with the last week of pay owing to us plus our annual leave not cleared. This is disrespect to the highest level. In the pretense of giving us an off day on a Sunday, the owners of the restaurant spent over 10 hours clearing out all food products from all the fridges and cool room.
Staff appeared the next morning with disbelief as the locks were changed and restaurant closed giving us no explanation nor any form of consolation. I was scheduled an off day on that Monday and i had no knowledge until a fellow colleague inform me of the whole plight.
The disbelief of my ex-bosses not even having the courtesy to inform even the executive chef of that decision was just unbelievable.
Well, we were all left without a job.
It is one and a half months since the restaurant closed down on us.
I'm bruised and skeptical about people at this point.
But, I'm thankful though today, I am giving a job opportunity though not my ideal position, but thankfully a 5-star environment.
