First Day at Work

Starbucks in Montreal is, in a way,different from the one in Vancouver (maybe it's solely this one that I am working for). The managing system is not that strict when compare to the one in Vancouver. I was so suprised that the manager asked me if I wanted to try the new Banana and Coconut Frappacino Blend Creme since he made more than needed. In Vancouver, my manager would never do that and anything in excess normally just go down the sink. Also, it's very interesting how they would serve a pot of coffee until it's done instead of following the 1h timer. Because in Vancouver, no matter how full the urns might be, the coffee must be down the sink after and hour or else they are not consider fresh.

I praise God for the customers because they were very patient with me, especially the French customers. I had to take a few seconds to convert the total amount into French and they would wait for me to finish the number very slowly, or translate it for me into English :0). And one of my co-workers William, only speak French and Spanish, very little English...haha....so that means I have no choice but to parler le francais ou...etudier l'espanol :p

I am so excited to know that one of my co-workers from Starbucks in Vancouver is moving to Montreal in mid-June!!! I really want to get to know her and when she quitted Starbucks, I was so sad and knew that it's going to be hard trying to keep in touch. Praise God....she's coming!!!

And for tonight's discipleship group, we had an overview of 1 Peter. If you have time, browse through this book of the Bible, it's very neat how it encompasses encouragement, reflection of the purpose or Christ's death and resurrection, and humbling of the hearts and more :0). One of the goals for my accountable group in UBC is to memorize 1 Peter. I planned to do it a verse a day, however, I am a week behind schedule :(
