A New Day

When I first got here in Singapore a year ago, after my husband and I got married, we tended to our ice cream business. It wasn’t really a full time thing, in that we didn’t have an office and we’d just go when we had appointments and deliveries and whatnot. It was a wholesale distribution setup, so we didn’t have to be in a store the whole day.

All that has changed now. In the span of less than a month, my husband’s family and I are now immersed in a brand new business; one that involves coffee, milk, and food. You get the picture. We have been undergoing training for the last couple of weeks, and boy, is it tiring, believe you me!

I’ve been learning new skills, been working hard, been learning everything I need to know so that I can help run the business effectively. I’ve even managed to fulfill a lifelong dream: to run the cash register! Haha.

It’s a lot of fun, and also a lot of hard work. My customer service skills are now back in action. I get to talk to a lot more people, see more people. A lot of booboos and cheers.

As Michael Buble would sing: It’s a new day, it’s a new dawn, it’s a new life…for me. And I’m feeeeeeling gooood.

So exciting!
