Me a Promoter? Labels: 2008, active, camel, cardin, chalet, class, hari, luggage, model, pierre, promoter, raya
It's good to be back! Well to blogging and not vlogging of course. Didn't have time to blog and absolutely didn't have time to vlog. Will stop vlogging for now. (Awwwww.... miss me? LOL! kidding.) Anyway the next time i will be posting a vlog, is probably with someone familiar. Who? That's for me to know and for you to find out! :)
A lot of things happened when i was in hiatus. Or should i say MIA. Class chalet pass by so fast, Hari Raya just happen to be finishing and me a promoter has finally gone back to school. Being a promoter is probably something i didn't expect to be. I thought that i should try something different than warehousing work like DHL so there you go! Me a promoter! It was really fun and at the same time irritating to interact with customers.
But i sure had fun interacting with other promoters be it from the same company or not. And probably some blur cashiers who really made me laugh.
" Can i have the PAID stickers? PAID. P..A..I..D.. "
" Huh? *Looks at me blurly* Pig? "
Ha ha. That's probably one of the unforgettable moments. Seriously. I don't want a pig sticker. LOL! :)
Other than that, promoters there are really friendly and helpful in teaching me how to ineract with customers. Oh well, part-time job finished! Will probably be back to work on saturday and sunday only.
Enough said. Let me show you what the luggage atmosphere in Takashimaya feels like, How my modelling skills will promote luggage (probably NOT!) and the Battle of Luggages! Beware of LOTS of luggage pictures coming right down! :)
Girls who pass by will probably be in love with the PINK PIERRE CARDIN hardcase on the right corner.
Guys on the other hand just find the CAMEL ACTIVE bag macho! LOL!
Infamous Six-Wheeler
There is this funny guy named Desmond who is the promoter for the luggage ELLE just beside my counter. And he LOVES promoting this model of ELLE luggage. It is because it is the only luggage that comes with a SIX wheeler. Seriously, crazy! ha ha ha.
You can see the six wheel on the first picture. You may not heard of a SIX wheel luggage before. Don't worry, you are in the same boat with me. Customer just love the idea of more wheels. So as soon as he learnt that, he came up with his favourite catchphrase everytime customers passby his counter.
" This is a SIX wheeler! *Thumbs up* "
It's funny to see how customers are awed at such stuff. His catchphrase actually worked! And i'm awed too. :)
Then, his catchphrase changed to the " 10% LESS for the weekends only ". Not much a success from his " SIX Wheeler " catchphrase. ha ha ha. Oh. and did i mention he LOVES spelling the word "LUGGAGE" to "LAGGAGE"? He does this everytime on the delivery form. But learnt his lesson through the use of dictionary on his NOKIA handphone. ha ha ha. :P
Battle of the Luggages
VS 
On the left side, we have the PINK PIERRE CARDIN and on the right, we have the PINK ELLE!
The competition was started by a beautiful japanese lady who came to Takashimaya seeking a cute luggage. If i'm not wrong, her name was SAKI. And she spent almost 2 hours in dilemma searching for the right one. Unfortunately, she didn't know that both brands are from different company. So we have a fierce battle.
Using my talented japanese knowledge, i tried speaking japanese to her. ( See the word TRIED? LOL!) .
" Kore wa chotto kawaii desu ne "
(This is cute isn't it?)
" Ahh! Hai! Kawaii desu "
(Ahh! Yes! Cute!)
Oh my. She actually understood me! and even agreed with what i said. But i think for a moment there, she was really amazed and at the same time felt weird when i spoke japanese. LOL! :X
But soon she approached the PINK ELLE as the luggage was pure PINK unlike my luggage which was a two colour tone, PINK and GREY.
So in the end, who won? A SAMSONITE won! It's all because of her father which came down there and chose for her. Oh well...
FYI - Samsonite is a different brand and from a different company from us. :(
Me a Model!?
Below are some modelling pictures i took to promote the luggages and bags. (Nah...). Ok! Don't PUKE ok? LOL!
An ELLE sling bag caught my eye. It was really nice and i thought of buying one. But luckily i didn't. Because i just learnt from my 1st week French class that the meaning of "ELLE" is actually a "SHE". ha ha ha.
The CAMEL ACTIVE duffel bag was another eyecatcher. Guys will probably be liking this. :)
Well.. ELLE paid me to model for one of their hardcase. NOT! (Ignore the small kid behind)
And PIERRE CARDIN paid me to test their product.
This luggage won't break because of its polycarbonate material. Trust me! :)
I can say that ELLE do have a lot of wonderful and attractive colours on their hardcases.
LOVE the RED and BLUE ones. :)
A weird name for the place i worked. " TALKING HALL "?
Made me confused for " DOCKING HALL " the first time i was asked to go to. :P
Overall i would never forget the experience i got from being a promoter in Takashimaya. I would'nt say its fun and easy but i would say it is a good experience to learn how to interact with customers. Definitely! :)
Class Chalet 2008!
Class Chalet was fun! I won't say it is the best as not all of our classmates showed up. And i would say that being the Class Chairman, it is every Chairman dream to have full attendance in such event. But i would'nt blame you guys as you guys are busy. Seriously i won't! :) Or maybe i'm just a bad Chairman. ha ha ha. Anyway, being Chairman for 2E03 was fun and has definitely taught me a lot of things! :) :) :) :) :)
Hari Raya 2008!
This year Hari Raya was Fun, FUn, and more FUN! More people means more houses. More houses means more food and ahem.. green packets. LOL! Took pictures at every houses we went. Sadly i had to go off early. Really sorry but my house was the LAST for me! Would love to go out again with you guys! But time passes by so fast, that it felt that Hari Raya will just be around the corner. But i have to go through fasting first! :P
Sorry for the late posting on the Class Chalet and Hari Raya pictures! Blogger is just irritating when uploading to their servers. So i put it in on my imeem. Again, sorry if most of the pictures are blurry. Time to get a new camera! :)
That's me being EMO. Like always, i end every post with an EMO sentence. :)
I know that I've let you down. And if you give me a chance.
Believe that i can change. I'll keep us together, whatever it takes.
