The first time I came to UK as a visitor I took ECDL whilst my the bf go to work, in 3 months I had comlpeted the 6 modules and passed all the test, my certificate is somewhere in my files now. this coming 30th I'm graduating my Diploma course in IT at the London College of Computing.
Apart from going to college, taking care of the flat and my husband's breakfast and dinner, I managed to land on a part time job September last year in a japanese company, in their fine dining reataurant somewhere at Piccadilly.
I work 5 hours a day 4 times a week and manage an average of £500 a month which is not bad, cos i keep everything for my self alone. My husband pays for every single bills including my mobile contarct and reagularly sends money to my daughter in the Phils. and I have a weekly house keeping allowance for our food.
I love my job as Chef's assistant. for filipinas it should be very easy cos its just working in your own kitchen, I practically work with Japanese people for 14 months now, but things changed....
When this new Chef came recently and the old nice Chef quit.
this young japanese Chef (32) is just so good at his job but not with managing the people, all my friends are gone because of him, and some are quitting soon, even the japanese staff cant stand at his insulting words, and moody attitude. Everyday is agony for everybody thats the kind of atmosphere he gives.
We all work with fear, cos he will humiliate anyone that makes mistake. So we always finish work with physical, menatally and emotional stresses.
People say that Chef's are normally crazy.
Now, I even do cooking Japanese food for Bento take aways after they trained me for a week, which i like cos they trust me to cook the Japanese food. I train the new comers as well. and do the dessert for the restaurant.
I can even take 1 month holiday and still come back to work for them. But I am not sure if I can still stand the situation which making me emotionally ill.
Should I quit?
