Have been working for close to one week & received quite a few enquires on what I am doing for my current job. (For those who smsed me & I did not reply not because I am being arrogant but the timing which you smsed me was bad. Haha! And if any of you who is really concerned about me then will read my blog.) Well, I feel cheated! Ended up, I am more like a promoter than an administrative assistant. I blamed no one but myself for being too gullible. Currently, I am posted to causeway point to do promoting on slimming products. Yesh, do not need to rub your eyes. Indeed, it is SLIMMING product. I know, with my kind of figure, is not quite convincing but I guess the person in charge was too desperate to look for one promoter that is why she has actually overlooked this matter that whether I am suitable to sell this kind of product. Haha!
Oh, let me continue with what I actually want to share. As I was saying, I was being assigned to causeway point outlet to do promoting. From my place to the venue, the whole traveling journey took me 45 min bus ride. Goodness, gracious me! I have been experience motion sickness ever since I am back from China. But, this was the very first time that I am feeling super uncomfortable. As I am traveling to my workplace, I feel so uneasy till I really feel like puking my lung out can. When I finally reach my destination, I work with wobbly legs & spinning head. I feel so like dying & fainting on the spot. I am not trying to be exaggerating but my face really went so pale.
To be frank, working as a promoter can be quite fun (my first taste of it). Why? This is because very OTOT (Own time own target) one. =P Sound like I am a super slacker. No! I am not though I am given lots of opportunity to do so. I work independently & I just need to make sure there are sales. But, it can be so difficult & stress to maintain certain sale target. Though, my manager did not exert pressure to me, but no matter what, my principle is that as long as I am paid, I need to be responsible & make sure that I did my part. So, I exerted pressure to myself. So silly right? But no choice, is a kind of 职业病!
Another concern that I am afraid to face up with is one day, by any chance, a customer may walk up to me and started asking me lots of questions on my product. The one and only question I hated the most, or would I say the question which can zip my mouth is “Have you tried this product before? If not, why? I thought you should try it and test the result before promoting it to us.” Or “If yes, how can you still look so fat, I don’t think it works ya.” Oh my goodness! Both questions can really kill me & shut my mouth up.
Well, if ever one day I come across to such customer with such questions, my answer will be “I have not tried any slimming products because I am suffering from low blood pressure & my doctor advice me not to go on any form of dieting. Therefore, I am not as lucky as you who can try all kinds of product.” Haha! Good reason right? But sound so sarcastic for the 2nd sentence. Haha! Of course I would not add on with my 2nd statement. By the way, my low blood pressure reason is real de k, not fake up one. Only that I made it sound more serious & exaggerated it a bit. Like, it was not my doctor who advised me but was just a nurse who said so. LOL! Well, we just need to add some spice in our speech to make it more interesting. ;-P
Anyway, I still got a long way to this promoter job. Hope everything will be fine & smooth for me.
