not CHINA-town.

Just got home from work.... Ahh, so tired... I need some sleep.
I'm meant to be getting some work done, but really not in the mood at the moment, so decided to blog for a little bit :)
I need to rant a little... (Sorry, bear with me. If you don't like rants, don't read this.)
So there is something that really pisses me off at work...
ASIANS, PLEASE. Just coz I work in chinatown, it doesn't literally mean you're in CHINA-town. OK?! This is Australia, we dont bargain. k? yes? thanks. I really don't understand why people get the perception that just coz they're in chinatown they're allowed to be all rude, demand for discounts, and expect me to give them one.
Like..Ok, I get it. It's may be a "tradition" to bargain in asian countries... I can accept a little bargaining. But to ask if you can get something for like 5 dollars when it's clearly labelled as 30...IS NOT ON.... like what the hell people...when i say 30% off, i mean 30% off... not 80% off.. do you not understand english? Fine. I speak chinese, bring it on.
Seriously....when i'm at work, every second person asks me for a discount.. and when I can't give them one, or if my discount is too "little", they'll stand there for like 10 minutes bickering with me. PLEASE, I have better shit to do.. customers to serve, shit to clean, stuff to stock. DO NOT WASTE MY TIME. Some people will even stand there and argue with me for minutes, over like...20 cents. Come on now... really?!
I would just give it to them, but if I were to do that for every customer, what is the business going to earn, right?!
Worst thing is, some people walk in full suited up in branded stuff; LV bag, Gucci wallet, Burberry jacket, fat ass ring probably worth tens of thousands of dollars etc... and they stand there, argueing with me over 50cents. WHAT THE FUCK.
I'm seriously over people demanding for discounts. This is Australia, not China... you're in the wrong fucking place. Go back to your homeland buddy.

Anyway...on a lighter note... spent most of my night chatting away on the phone with Grace. Caught up on some gossip, bitched a little, laughed a lot. This girl always knows how to make me smile.
