Once in my lifetime, I was given a chance to work in Singapore. It is one of the most developed countries in the world. I have seen its environment and I knew how was working there. It was hard working there at first but I managed it later until I finished the job for six months. I was assigned at the biggest and famous international bookstore located in Singapore. The name of the bookstore is BORDERS PTE LTD. It has two branches particularly located at Wheelock Place, Orchard Road and Parkway Parade. I worked at Parkway Parade. Five days of work was given to me per week. There were lots of things I did. Since it’s a bookstore, I shrink wrapped different kinds of books especially the big ones and the ones that contained small particles such as toys for kids. I also arranged books on the shelves. I made sure that it’s neat and clean and is arranged alphabetically according to the author. Another nice thing I did was serving all different kinds of customers. I helped them find a certain book that they wanted by searching it first on the computer and then searching it on the shelf. I rendered all important information to customers at the Information Counter. We had a storytelling session every Tuesday and I was one of the storytellers. So, I found it great to serve the little ones by telling them nice stories. Lastly, I helped customers during purchasing time by accepting their cash at the Cash Register. I had two off days and it helped me do other things like reading, spending time with friends, shopping or visiting some tourist spots in Singapore. I served at Borders Bookstore for about six months and I learned a lot of things. My work experience there is truly a treasure for me.
