and I was walking from restaurant to
and I was walking from restaurant to restaurant looking for looking for for
restaurant looking for looking for for
restaurant looking for looking for for for for a place to work and my first try
for for a place to work and my first try
for for a place to work and my first try was very exquisite restaurant it was one
was very exquisite restaurant it was one
was very exquisite restaurant it was one of those fancy restaurants where you can
of those fancy restaurants where you can
of those fancy restaurants where you can order a big plate with very little meal
order a big plate with very little meal
order a big plate with very little meal in the middle and you are paying
in the middle and you are paying
in the middle and you are paying enormous amount of money for it so it
enormous amount of money for it so it
enormous amount of money for it so it was my first first try when I entered
was my first first try when I entered
was my first first try when I entered this this restaurant I was told that you
this this restaurant I was told that you
this this restaurant I was told that you have to learn a whole menu by heart you
have to learn a whole menu by heart you
have to learn a whole menu by heart you have to wear suit
have to wear suit
have to wear suit there are procedure for this and
there are procedure for this and
there are procedure for this and procedure for that so I was attacked
procedure for that so I was attacked
procedure for that so I was attacked with a lot of pieces of information and
with a lot of pieces of information and
with a lot of pieces of information and I had to learn a lot of things so I can
I had to learn a lot of things so I can
I had to learn a lot of things so I can say that the this restaurant was highly
say that the this restaurant was highly
say that the this restaurant was highly well organized it was it was well
well organized it was it was well
well organized it was it was well organized and in the same time it was
organized and in the same time it was
organized and in the same time it was very very constrained what I also
very very constrained what I also
very very constrained what I also discovered when I entered this this
discovered when I entered this this
discovered when I entered this this displaced is it was that it has also
displaced is it was that it has also
displaced is it was that it has also another part of dynamics from one
another part of dynamics from one
another part of dynamics from one perspective it is very structured and
perspective it is very structured and
perspective it is very structured and organized but it also contained a lot of
organized but it also contained a lot of
organized but it also contained a lot of different relationship with people with
different relationship with people with
different relationship with people with chefs with waiters and there are
chefs with waiters and there are
chefs with waiters and there are completely new types of dynamics that I
completely new types of dynamics that I
completely new types of dynamics that I had to learn a lot of intrigues a lot of
had to learn a lot of intrigues a lot of
had to learn a lot of intrigues a lot of discussions a lot of problems with with
discussions a lot of problems with with
discussions a lot of problems with with the managers of this restaurant and I
the managers of this restaurant and I
the managers of this restaurant and I felt really really lost there so after
felt really really lost there so after
felt really really lost there so after two days I quit the job so it was my
two days I quit the job so it was my
two days I quit the job so it was my first like professional experience but I
first like professional experience but I
first like professional experience but I don’t don’t like to give up so I started
don’t don’t like to give up so I started
don’t don’t like to give up so I started looking for more and I was looking for
looking for more and I was looking for
looking for more and I was looking for for for a place to work and after a few
for for a place to work and after a few
for for a place to work and after a few days I tried for the second time and I
days I tried for the second time and I
days I tried for the second time and I wept – very lovely popin B visa and it
wept – very lovely popin B visa and it
wept – very lovely popin B visa and it was really nice it was nice it was full
was really nice it was nice it was full
was really nice it was nice it was full of it has its kind of unique atmosphere
of it has its kind of unique atmosphere
of it has its kind of unique atmosphere there and people working there were
there and people working there were
there and people working there were really really nice but I found it really
really really nice but I found it really
really really nice but I found it really chaotic probably it was my perception of
chaotic probably it was my perception of
chaotic probably it was my perception of this of this restaurant but it was like
this of this restaurant but it was like
this of this restaurant but it was like going into deep water from the very
going into deep water from the very
going into deep water from the very first day so I I just didn’t really know
first day so I I just didn’t really know
first day so I I just didn’t really know what to do
what to do
what to do I felt really lost and I felt that this
I felt really lost and I felt that this
I felt really lost and I felt that this pub is too demanding because I need new
pub is too demanding because I need new
pub is too demanding because I need new pubs but I was always the customer of
pubs but I was always the customer of
pubs but I was always the customer of the pub not the employee of the pub so
the pub not the employee of the pub so
the pub not the employee of the pub so there were too many things to do so I
there were too many things to do so I
there were too many things to do so I was just fighting inside this chaotic
was just fighting inside this chaotic
was just fighting inside this chaotic organisation that probably for the
organisation that probably for the
organisation that probably for the owners or other waiters wasn’t Celtic at
owners or other waiters wasn’t Celtic at
owners or other waiters wasn’t Celtic at all but for me it was really chaotic so
all but for me it was really chaotic so
all but for me it was really chaotic so after a few days I quit and I felt
after a few days I quit and I felt
after a few days I quit and I felt completely demolished and I started
completely demolished and I started
completely demolished and I started thinking what to do so I went to my
thinking what to do so I went to my
