Char Kway Teow, anyone? (Part II)
One day, the Ops Manager found out that this helper was helping out in 2 stalls and was very upset. He insisted that the helper should only help in the stall next door. Soon, he even offered to send that helper to an upgrading course for Stall Management overseas.
Well, all this meant that Ah Pek would now be running with only 40% manpower then he was supposed to have. Ah Pek thought:" Never mind, if I endure, sure got good thing come my way."
Suddenly, the Ops Manager started to tell Ah Pek that his stall was dirty, not well kept, unpresentable to the customers, the ingredients were lying around and the secret ingredients could be exposed. yadda yadda yadda.
Ah Pek is now very sad. Ah Pek wants to do a good job. Ah Pek does not have enough Manpower to do a good job. Nobody wants to give Ah Pek the Manpower but expects Ah pek to do a good job. In fact, people tell Ah Pek that back when he was the only one running the stall, business went on as usual. Ah Pek though about then and now.. and Ah Pek realised... back then, he only had to fry 30 plates of Char Kway Teow a day. Now he has to fry 1500 plates a day. On top of that, Ah Pek has to make sure his stall is ISO 9001, OHSAS 18001, PDS, EVO and potentially GEM certified, because nowadays people don't do business with people that do not have such certifications.
Ah Pek also has to go for monthly meetings to look at numbers he doesn't really understand, but the Ops manager says that it will be good for him and he must write everything down so that he knows what is going on. And so, Ah Pek also has to spend time every month writing meeting stuff.
Ah Pek is sad.
Ah Pek don't like to Char Kway Teow anymore.
