man with the hood

i am back to the blog world as i feel that there is no one that I can trust around me to tell my story to. Well, i backed to Penang to work while my holiday since 28th of january. I actually back to Poh Kong Jewellers to gain some achievement, so that I can have a good testimony when I apply for job in the future. ( I was thought that the achievement can be recorded in my Advanced Diploma certificate, not eventually)

So I work my ass off to achieve the target set by my boss - RM 125,000 from 1st of March to 15th of May. But I gave myself a target of RM 80,000 then I can take a rest d. For your information, the target that my boss gave is equals to RM 60,000 per month which is the target for those who already work for 2 to 3 years with the basic salary of RM 1,000 and above. But my basic salary is the junior sales which is just RM 700. But my mindset was just on the achievement so i just don't give a damn. Moreover, in their culture, all of the junior sales that just started to do sales, their first and second month sales will be around RM 15,000 to RM 20,000. So that had been a great pressure to me because i wasn't confident that i can achieve my boss's target or even my target.

Surprisingly, i did a RM 28,000 for the first month which is at the rank 4th (the outlet has 10 salespeoples and i am the newbie). No newbie had done this before except the rank 1st in the outlet when she was a newbie. So, she defined me as her threat that will challenge her top sales position. Then all the salespeople started to steal customer or share the lights and do a lot of tricks just to keep themselves in the 'competition'. But, i managed to do a RM35,000 plus a RM 40,000 of gold bar which put my overall performance to RM 100,000 by 21st of April. By that time, I felt like nothing to fight for, so I tendered my resignation then I left on the 23rd of April.

Actually, I had done a pure survey or experiment on my job experience. The previous job experience with Poh Kong Jewellers which i entered on the 27th december of 2008 and i left on 23rd of April 2009, that time I wasn't a salespeople yet. I was having training for those period of time. I managed to keep well relationship with all of the staffs (because i wasn't their competitor yet). But when the second trip back to Poh Kong which i promoted to a salespeople, our relationships all broken and they even see me as threat and sabotaj me to stop me from challenging the top sales. In conclusion, got sales = no friend, no sales = got brothers. (only apply in Poh Kong culture) But I would like to thanks to those seniors that willing to teach me a lot of their secrets and thanks to the boss for giving me the chance.

By the way, I met a girl named Pei Ching in Poh Kong. but she wasn't the same outlet as me. She is cute, but I won't think about that.
