last day at SUBWAY...

Last night, on the Sunday... I gave my swan song for an old friend.

It was my last day at SUBWAY.
The last time I will make sub sandwiches there.
I did serve the last customer as best as I could.
He was a regular named George who worked at the accountants across the road.
He wished me all the best in my future endeavours.
A lil' sad I couldn't see Paulie the cabbie to tell him I was leaving.

I remember hating how disorganized and chaotic the way the place was run.
I got shafted more times than I can remember...
Got moved around two of the owner's shops.
I owe Lydia and Chandra so much for the lessons and the experiences.
And, these experiences really build character.
I had learned a lot from my time there...
To show up early and work hard, but work smarter!
I managed people... even finally made it as a senior guy who was trusted to lead shifts and close-up shop.

I mopped the floors as best as I could.
Even filled up the drinks fridge earlier.
Made damn sure the day's tally was accurate.
I locked up the shop tight.
I never expected that I was going to miss the place...

Haha... even Chandra said thanks and good luck for the future.

As Flick puts it... no more sandwich artiste
It's a blessed existance that I lead.



How am I feeling?
I'm feeling... well, it's mixed feelings.

I really expected I'd be a lil' bitter about the whole thing...
Just feel relieved that I don't have to carry the responsibility of cleaning up the previous shift's mess.
But, at the same time, I'm worried whether someone will look after the store after I'm gone.

Hey, Kelly, if you are reading this...
Screw it if they don't want you anymore.
You deserve better than to constantly pick up their shit.
Hope Raj, Ramiya, Swati and Sarjana at your shop do well...
Yea...

Last days are always kinda sad
It's just that the leaving, parting and saying bye to friends that get to me.
Mani, Emma, JD+coke, Rebecca, Saifs, Imran... even the lazy f*kwit Nik.
Life will probably not be the same.

But one has to let go of the GOOD to obtain the BEST...
