Part-timers

Kahoe: Why u need to study hard? No matter what,in the end,u'll get help. That's why I hate ur kind of ppl

Hafiz: The reason why I'm working hard so that I won't need that kind of help.

" Talent time" by the late Yasmin Ahmad



Most shops like those in food courts or small shops selling clothes or whatnots or those small shops that sprung during the festive seasons need part-time workers cos full-time workers are either too expensive or demanding. These small mama-papa shops also need part-timers so that they can relax or do sumting else while the part-timer works his shift.

Sumtimes u get good part-timers who does his work properly without any kelonging,sumtimes u get part-timers who are kings of kelong or just want to settle their bills or rents for the month.
Most of these part-timers will quit once sem break begins,some would continue after their break but its only like 1% will do that.

Since I'm staying in Shah Alam which has a "Green" majority,I find that most of the part-timers belong to the 2nd category which is kinda sad cos on the 1st day,they are fill with zest and energy but as the week progresses,they only think of when their shift ends. By looking at their attitude,u'll realize that its no wonder why most of the "Greens" really need to be helped and they are really not the working kind. I mean the owners hire u to man their shops which often than not are their only rice bowls,so be a bit responsible lah since ur shift is like only for 4-6 hrs je. Don't pour dirt into their bowls,k?
