today @ work...

  • 5mins into my shift, an asian lady started struggling at the deep end of the lap pool, and i almost sh*t in my pants. i saw the signs of distress, assessed it, then i ran to her, all in a span of less than 5secs. when i got to her, she managed to grab hold of the wall and pulled herself up. so i checked if she's alright and etc, and she told me she panicked -.-" what a nice start to my shift! it's such a good WAKE UP call. who needs coffee now?
  • had an interview with a lady named Diane. the interview was about how we find working at LEP and how the team leader is (read: super cool!) and if we've had any difficulties working there. the interview went well, but the lady said that my team leader needs to hold some staff meetings...and apparently (according to team leader), after each staff meeting, they'll chuck us into the pool to swim -_- okay, now i'm NOT looking forward to the staff meetings.
  • had an assh*le trying to gimme shite in the lap pool. this idiot is way younger than me, and was being really rude and causing lots of trouble. so i told him off a couple of times, and he'll just ignore me. and well, i started fuming after that and i think jimmy saw what happened from the office and came out to help kick that idiot out of the pool but he didn't budge. so someone went to get mr manager, and that retard got kicked out (cue for evil laugh *MWAAHAHAHA*)
  • i had fun hosing kiddies down on the bouncy castle :D but some kids wanted to squirt their friends as well, and this one kid left the hose on the floor, and the hose went flying around, and got mr manager wet (oops!). dont think he got angry from that (well, he is working at a swimming pool, so he's bound to get wet one way or another..) but when another little kid was pushing another kid around, he got REALLY angry. and i've never seen mr manager get angry -.-" it was kinda scary, coz he started yelling at the kid, and his face was like..red. really red. i wonder if that's how i looked like when i was fuming earlier.

and that was my day.

how was yours?

How was my day? We picked up a Civic from the General Manager's place in the city and I drove it down to the owner's place in Manurewa - haven't driven a manual for a while, so that was quite cool. After that, we all drove up to the city again in 1 car. After working at the Clean Green Car Company for a few hours, we were about to leave when the owner chucked a set of keys at me and asked if I wanted to drive the brand new Honda Insight Hybrid he just bought for the company. Awesome! It was great fun. In the afternoon, we drove down to Wattle Downs to service another client there. As usual, spent half the day on the road, but got to drive 2 different cars :)
