JOB HUNTING ( the adventures of Jeri elsng)
Sweat poured down from my converse sweater as i hastily got onto the rumbling
SBS BUS NO 359. Armed with nothing except for my trusty
Nokia 5300 phone and my wallet, i had began my search for the prized elusive job residing in the concrete jungle known as White Sands Shopping Centre. Located in the heartland of
Pasir Ris, this jungle contained secrets that many have ventured to uncover, but few returned.
The dry air blew through my unkempt air as the bus flow along the
meandering road, slowly making its way to the base of the jungle. Sitting restlessly, i rehearsed the kill repeatedly in my mind. As the bus pulled along the beach known as the pavement, i gathered my belongings and began to track down my prey. Straining my eyes for any clues which could lead me to this elusive creature, i crept stealthily through the undergrowth. Then ......... I got my first clue.
There, lying on the concrete pavement, lay a small puddle of chocolate fudge ice-cream, melted and sizzling due to the scorching sun. I got down on my knees, dipping my finger gingerly into the repulsive mixture. The mixture smelled fresh, that could only mean good news. My target was not far away. Walking a few metres ahead, i chanced upon a trail of cone crumbs. I grinned. Lady luck sure had a crush on me. By now, the trail had started to clear, and i soon came to a clearing which was much welcome to me, a great contrast from the dense undergrowth that i had just traversed.
Then, i saw it.
What a majestic creature to behold.
With three distinct words embolded on its crest, it snorted, rearing up on its hindlegs to reveal its brightly coated underside. Finally, i had located the mystical creature known to mankind as BEN & JERRY. Placing it within my scope, i took aim and fired........
(Story aside, i approach the counter to find two lovely ladies manning the counter. Upon further probing, i found out that the White Sands branch only hired female workers. They took down my number and informed me that they will contact me, making known to me that i had to work at the downtown east branch. I said yes and left.)
