「 invaded it on 11:30 PM 」
YEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Finally I am able to blog.

From last thursday till now I have been busy with working, chalet, and resting.

Working at EXPO: 29 Nov (Thurs) - 2 Dec (Sun)

We are working for Lenovo, credits to Donny's brother who got us the job.

I woke up very excitedly on Thursday. I felt that I would definitely reach my target of 10 laptops per day. I was super confident that I would sell my first laptop within the first hour.

After reaching EXPO, we were told that we have to split into groups of 3. So me, JJ, Wai Kuong went to the booth at Hall 6, while Zong Qin, Donny, and Xiaomin stayed at Hall 5. After getting briefed, we started work and gave out our first fliers of the day.

After 2 hours my heel is starting to feel pain. I was a bit afraid of approaching customers and asking if they needed help anot, since I am not very good with stuff like RAM, whaetever. Even though we had asked for lunch at 1pm, it is only delivered after 3pm. After eating lunch, we were bored, so we competed with each other.

"Whoever give out his own set of fliers wins."

I know it's lame but we really had nothing to do. Plus, that distracted me from my heel pain.

Donny was the only one among us to sell one.

--------------------------------------

My timetable for the next few days were about the same:

7.45am - Wake up

9.00am - Take MRT to EXPO

11.00am - Start work

Lunch between 3pm to 4pm

(Continue work after lunch)

Dinner between 7pm to 8pm

(Continue work till 9.15pm)

10.oopm - Free to go home after debrief. Took MRT home

11.30pm - Reach home.

12.15am - After bathing and massaging, SLEEP TIME!

--------------------------------------

The next day was equally horrible. I was thinking of ways to pon. Actually I was harbouring those thoughts on the first day. But for the sake of taking a picture with "ah-neh-look-alike", we managed to persevere till the last day.


His name is Charlie, or Chali, and he is a Thai-Chinese. He can speak Malay, Chinese, Thai, English, you name it. Looks like Ah-Neh's younger brother right!?!?!

Even though I did not reach my noble target of selling 10 laptops per day, I still managed to sell 2 in 4 days. All sold on the last day. Wai Kuong wanted his record to have at least a "1", so I kindly sign the deal with his name. The commission of one of the laptop was split among us three. Donovan sold 15 in total, Xiaomin sold 14, and Zong Qin sold a little less than 10.

Anyway I have thought of a way to promote the Lenovo laptops via Mocca:

Hi I am selling my laptop!
You like it? It's light, and cool with 3 huge USB ports
The RAM is over there!
The graphic card is over there!
This is my beautiful Y410 (computer brand)
Check out the matching designs (we are selling 3 different types of the Y410)
Want to see more? Call this number: 9353xxxx

CREATIVE EH?

Anyway I took some pictures at EXPO, I shall post it next time!

Came back from chalet today and is feeling sleepy.
