DAISO


Have been working at DAISO for 4 days. And yes! It's been tiring. Trish was the one who recommended me the job. Bascially our job scope was to count Daiso stocks, which means stock taking. Seriously, it's a tiring job. Damn tired on the first day of work. First, i have to wake up at 5am early in the morning just so i could reach Sembawang at 7.45am sharp on my first day of work. For that reason, i seriously hate travelling all the way to west side esp for work given the fact that i hv to travel to dover everday to sch.

Day 2 was the same thing. Travelling to west side agn. But fortunately, it wasn't at Sembawang but Jurong instead. Hence i was allowed to sleep more. Day 3 was much better. Was at Vivo. Could sleep even more. Day 4 wasn't as tiring as expected. Instead it was the my most fun day at work despite working overnight shift. Trish wasn't able to work on the last day cuz she has CO concert the following day. But i was lucky to have 2 companions anqi and xinrui as well as another grp of friends whom i came to know during my last day of work. Joked and laughed alot. Damn funny!

The pay at Daiso wasn't that great. FYI: We were paid at a rate of $4.50/hr from mon-wed. While thurs was $6/hr. Thurs was an overnight shift (from 10pm-7am). However the $6/hr rate of pay was from 12am to 7am, which means from 10pm to 12am we were paid at a rate of $4.50/hr. On top of that, Daiso has got lots of Rules & Regulations which we have to follow. Most importantly, miscounting wasn't allowed at all. Not even once. 3 times of miscounting and they will sent you back. Yes, it's that serious. They will also send u back if you report late for work or return late from break. They are just so particular with everything. And i did miscount once and was being warned. Luckily i wasn't sent back.

Was released early on last day of work at ard 6am, then was abt to headed to mac with the rest of the guys but realised that PS mac no longer 24hrs. So headed back home instead.

I don't know if i'll still work for Daiso agn for their next stock take. Hopefully i can still see familiar faces if im gg to work for their next stock take agn. =)
