Sitex IT Show

Hi guys! I'm backkkk yo. Soooo I have finally worked! At sitex IT show :-) That's my first job and I would say... My luck sucks. Nevertheless, it's a fun and memorable experience for me?? Since that's my first time working and meeting new friends!


Here's my entry pass! Exhibitor sehhhh HAHA.

Idk if I'm always this unlucky... But I know for sure I was damn damn daaaamn suay this time (my first precious job experience T-T) Whyyy leh?? 'Cos I got chosen (each of the team leaders drew lots to choose their team members) to work at the smallest booth among all the booths. Ohh and btw, if you didn't know, I worked as the sales promoter for HP printers under Newstead Technologies! Ok so my booth was like.. When you walked past, you won't even notice us one. That was why my team members and I kept on shouting 'ANYONE LOOKING FOR PRINTERS' or 'PRINTERS FOR YOU' while giving out the big brochures. Siannn max man I tell u. (Hahaha ok let me whine a bit la) My sales on the 1st day SUCKS. Like really bullshit. I sold like 3?? Actually 2 la, one of 'em was my team lead(er) gave me de cause until like afternoon? (the show started at 11) I still hadn't cracked any eggs. HAHAHAHA. I meant, I hadn't sold one printer yet. Yeahhh, so in fact, I only sold 2 :(((((( Then my sales started to pick up next day and I sold 9! Woooo. Followed by 8 and then 10 on the last day. Talking about the last day... I HAD FREAKING DIARRHEA AT THE START OF THE SHOWWWW. I didn't know the reason of why I had sudden stomachache as well but the only thing I knew was my worries that I couldn't have a double digit in my sales record :(((( My goal of that day was srsly just to sell a double digit number of printers but I was just that unlucky to have stomachache. And whenever I came back from toilet, there were customerrrrrs. I lost my opportunity to serve them lorrrr. :( Luckily wenyi came to the IT show on that day and brought me some chinese medical pills to relieve my stomach!!! Heng siaaa. (Kamsaaaa wenyi :*) Felt so much better after consuming those pills :'D My sales started to pick up in the late afternoon and TADA, sold 10 at the end of the dayyyyyyy.  Sooooo glad that I managed to have a double digit in my sales record during the 4-days show if not I would have been.... Actually nth much la HAHA. Just feel a bit sad lor.

Anyways, the people in my team were nice! For the first 2 days, I had in fact worked with just guys alone. Hahaha, I initally felt awkard. Damn awkward. Plus the 3 of 'em were so much older than me aha. But my team leader and another guy started to talk to me first so the ice was finally broken wooooo. Then I just 'camouflaged' as a guyyyy if u know what I mean. Like literally. Guy. Yeah. But I'm still a girl :D Then a girl joined us during the last 2 days and I felt more comfortable le la. The only lucky thing that happened to me was that the people in my team were niceee! :-) Hehe, that was enuf to last me for that 9-10 hours (?) there uhhh. Wasn't very bored since I could chat with 'em!!

After our work on the last day, lynn chia and I were supposed to join the rest (those who sold HP printers as well) for steamboat at bugis but it was late after the debrief so we ended up not going! Lynn and I were like so indecisive hahaha. We couldn't make up our mind because we would feel guilty for not going. But oh well, we hardened our heart and said no HAHAHA. Joined the guys (dino, dx, ty and xr) for supper at Simpang Bedok! Satays and stingray and satays and stingray and prawns. HAHAHA.





Ordered this huge mug (which I suspected was the one from the blender LOL) of lemon sour plum juice with lynn!! Tastes damn good. Prefer this to the sour plum juice itself :p


Sorry dino, the only group photo I have HAHAHA.

Afterwhich, I cabbed home with chia, dino and dx! I'm kinda missing IT show now ah, a bit la. I miss the fun working there actually. Even though my sales suckkkks (emphasising again HAHA sorrehhh), I enjoyed the show ah. AND. I definitely gained a lot of knowledge about printers. Esp. HP printers. I have one at home and I realised that it cannot be compared to those I had sold over those 4 days HAHAHA. No wireless printing. No ePrint. No wireless direct. No touchscreen. HAHA MINE'S SHITTT. May change it when I move house next year?? MAYBE buying during another show since there'll be promotions hehe :p

Yup that's all about my experience at the IT show! I'm waiting for the person from Nautica to contact chia and I haha. We went for another interview there. Yeah I know, the name sounds foreign. At least to me. Nautica?? Never even heard of before :/ Hopefully we'll get the job ah and the location won't be very very far hahaha.

Alright, gooooodbye! :-)
