After a month.

I'm in my second department, I am trying to take it and look at it in a different perspective but heck, I did not NOT choose to major in Rooms Division in my second year for a reason.

I'm not the housekeeping type. Not even high-so executive housekeeper type.

Being in this department is really testing my humility, being a practical trainee for my first general training, I'm suppose to learn the basic, lowest of all post in the department. Being in housekeeping means I've to clean rooms and bathrooms AND the public area of the hotel.

Dad : "You have to learn to do things below your level to achieve better success next time."
Me : "But to train as a cleaner? A bit STUPID right?"

---

Mom : "You should talk to your college about this, although you're student status, why should

put you doing all this dirty jobs for so long?"

Me : "Exactly, I didnt qualify and pass all my stupid business maths, food sc, etc to be a

cleaner."

---

Yes, I admit, I want face. I'm willing to clean rooms and bathrooms because then only I'll know the standard of how a room is suppose to be cleaned and look like but NOT too long and NOT a person who sweeps the floor or wipe objects in the hotel.

No, I'm not degrading those cleaners in the hotel, I don't look down at them, I even feel proud that at least they got themselves a legal, paying job. I'm looking at it in MY manner, I don't like and want to be a cleaner.

Admit it, YOU wouldn't like it either, right? How would you feel?

A part of me wants to test my limits, patience and whatever. It's a process to make me a better person. Another part of me is, a bit... wanting face, my skin isn't that thick afterall.

Mom said she could get Dr. X (a specialist and a good friend of my mom and cousin sister after they were diagnosed with Breast Cancer, also their surgeon) to write me a letter stating I've some kind of medical problem that sees me unfit for the job/department or MCs.

Everyday, since I started in housekeeping, I've been thinking positive and assuring myself that, I can learn something from this and not to be cynical of everything and the people I work with.

I'll tell you the outcome after next week. I AM giving housekeeping a chance.

Dad : "Look at how dirty your cup is, all the coffee stains."

Me : "The cup's too white la, needs colour."

Do I look like a housekeeping attendant to you? I didn't think so.
