Bartending Jobs

October 31st, 2009

A little bit clumsy I am feeling now. My part time job in the library finished yesterday. The boss actually likes my job but there have been several new applicants for the position. In the meantime, I am just a college student who needs some extra money for college payment.

Sitting on a rattan barstool in my favorite café near my campus, I am wondering whether there will be part time jobs for college students this season. Perhaps my college friends have some information about that but this afternoon I see no one of them around. Only the waitresses and the bartender I know. Well, since no friend is around, it is better to have a chat with the bartender.

Bartending JobsHe apparently likes to talk with customers, or perhaps being kind and friendly are the requirements of bartending jobs. He looks quite smart also; most of topics we are talking about are responded well and deeply up-to-date. Gee, in my opinion, he should have worked as a consultant or something. But he seems to like his job.
With all his heart, he said that any jobs he must do, he will dedicate for it and enjoy it; no matter of what his position is; on the front door, beverage jobs, parking valet or others. Not only work hard to make the boss happy; the main point is that whatever you do it is your life and your habit. Wow! How deep his thought is. Now I assume him to have had a job as a philosopher or a priest. I realize that he does not mean to teach me something; all his expressions and answers are dependent on my questions and I am impressed of that. How I have never noticed that in this favorite café for the past years of college there is a good person like him, a good person I will enjoy to talk and discuss with.
I am then thinking of food and beverage jobs; they must be quite interesting. But I am not sure whether I could resist my desire of facing nice food and delicious drink in front of me!

Good at Computerization

October 30th, 2009

Good at Computerization photoI definitely understand that you are already old – about 4 years old; but that does not mean that you could just simply turn off by yourself when I am in the middle of my urgent job! I realize that I seldom maintain you, take care of you, get you serviced or even thank to you; but please be there when I need you.

I am totally in confusion with my old PC. I have no idea why my PC has acted so strange lately that I could hardly do my job perfectly. Sometimes it shuts down by himself, on the other time it did not load anything for minutes. I have been using this PC for years and I thought that I have understood and recognized my PC well; on the contrary, my knowledge about hardware matters is still so little that I finally must ask my friend’s help about this troublesome. He is working in a computer and accessory company that apparently produces some industrial motherboards, high tech peripherals and accessories and other applications for computers – all kinds of computers. Inevitably he must be good at computerization.

Apparently, my PC is indeed needed to be replaced – it is out-of-date my friend said. He explained that the old style of power supply does not generate well as it used to be, random access memory capacity is also too small, hard disk is already full of computer viruses and some other things that I am not sure I could comprehend them. But in short, he emphasized that I need to get a new computer system – either it another PC or probably in shape of laptop or something. Well, my friend, thank you for the advice. I will surely replace my old computer to another new later – later when I have enough money.
