Los Dol (Together With The Ex)
40 Looking for a job
Second interview
" Is your English well?" the white-shirt father interviewed me while looking at the cv I gave him.
" a little sir" I replied.
" in this office every day use English because this location is mostly foreign residents. how are you ready?"
" then I look for a job elsewhere sir. English I just know nouns" I'm embarrassed.
"yes, it's your decision".
I got out of the marketing office of an elite housing estate.
Central Bank Asia
" i'm sorry sir, I'm writing this job application, who knows if there's a job for me here." I spoke to security who stood at his post. And handed me my job application.
" You should bring back your job application because there are no vacancies here" said security
" I beg you sir, please help me" I plead
" you better send it to another place who knows where else you are received than later this cover letter is discarded by HRD here."
True also said security, rather than wasted in vain I finally took back the documents I gave earlier. And get out of that place.
God, where else do I have to find a job, in this big city it is very difficult to find a halal job. I stopped by a small shop to buy a drink. My throat was thirsty after a long day of searching for work.
" sir, cold drink one "I pay for my drink. The shopkeeper looked at me from head to toe.
" What's the matter sir, you see me like that"
" Are you looking for a job" said the father.
"How did you know I was looking for a job" I asked
" I saw your appearance and the documents you brought with you"
" right sir. I'm looking for a job, can you help me?" ask me
" it just so happens that the shop next door is looking for a woman to help him in the house."
" Stall?Which shop, sir?" I was looking for the shop that this father meant.
" i want sir, you can take me there"
" well, I'll drop off"
The place was about 15 meters from the sale of the father earlier. From the outside is very similar to a depot but it turns out this place is long leading into such a boarding house. I got confused this stall depot or boarding house.the more I went into the more room doors I passed.
" the owner of this place is inside" I followed the father's steps.
Until I finally saw a middle-aged woman sitting alone with her thick makeup.
" Mi, this girl is looking for a job" whispered the father to the woman he called Mi.The owner of the place looked at me with his sharp eyes.
" may" he said again.
Then I saw some girls my age in sexy clothes coming out of the kitchen past us chatting.
" mommy" call the girls as it passes.
"hmmm" that's the only answer from the woman called mami
The girls headed outside and I saw a man there waiting for him and one of the girls went into one of the rooms I passed by. The other girl went to the outside door.
" tomorrow night you can work here" said Mami
" i'm sorry if I may know, what my job here is" I asked
" you help me sell in front" said Mami
" why should it be night. I look for work during the day"
" it's easy to set up, which is important tomorrow night you're here"
" well, then I go home first" I replied
" please, rest first.don't forget tomorrow night and beautiful" said mami again
i'm nodding. Finally I got a job even though I only helped sell, the important thing is that I can eat and have a place to stay. Maybe I was too happy to get a job after a day of rejection in some places. I forgot the man who drove me. I returned the contract.
