Still got 20 more days to go!! Time to reflect...

Time just go by very quickly, basically I'm counting down every single day and just hope it won't go that quick. There is just 20 more days before I'm heading back to Hong Kong, 3 more days before I leave the hotel. I know that these (leaving U.K and the hotel) will come very soon, but it just seems to me that the day is within reachable distance now.

I know from time to time I do complain about my job, especially my rota and my "nice" supervisor. However, when it is coming close to the end, I know I will miss it, since it is my first job that I've been working for such a long time, plus it is a full time job too. When I think about it, everyone has been really nice to me. I really like the people there, the only thing I am upset about is the management. I'm really thankful that my manager decided to employ me and allow me to gain the experience I need.

I still recall those days where I don't mind working 9 shifts straight without any day off, and still I wouldn't complain about it at all. I really enjoy the time when she is still around as my manager. However, thinking about it, things changed since she left the desk and since my "nice" supervisor started to work in reception. I just couldn't enjoy working behind that desk anymore.

At the moment, all we talk about is her, it just seems like there is a campaign in the hotel, where everyone isn't help her out or doing any favour to her just because her attitude problems. I can foreseen that there will be a lot more problems in the future, especially when my manager comes back after her maternity leave.

Part of me thinking thank god that I don't have to face it and stand her anymore. However, on the other hand, I was thinking too bad I would miss all these good stuff. I just think she has a major attitude problems where it causes a lot of other managers and supervisors doesn't want to work or help her at all.

The only problem is she didn't realise it at all and she still thinks she is very good at her job. She got ambition, which is a good thing, but the only problem is she is willing to sacrifice others to achieve her ambitions. I think this won't work in nowadays, she needs to work as a team in order to show others that she got the managerial skills to manage the team and able to proceed higher.

Anyways, I wouldn't be able to see this, which to be honest, I'm not that sad about it. At least I can leave all these gossips behind. I tried so hard to avoid all these gossips during the time I work in the hotel, especially knowing that our hotel are quite different, not very small but very close and a lot of gossips.

3 more shifts and I'm out of there. I will be having my leaving-do on Sunday and I think I will have another one next week with other people from different departments. And I think I will be very busy next week, where I am really starting to pack. I have to get most of the things sorted as I will be going to London the week after. I won't have time to do anymore packing on that week. Spending 2 nights in London trying to do my shopping and visit some friends.
