So now my life in a new job and my honest opinion. I must say that I absolutely love it here! From the location to the staff that I work with. Everyone has been so welcoming to me, and I can say that I like everyone. It’s like one big happy family, and I’m the little Brit who’s wide-eyed about everything! Recently we did a cowboy BBQ, and I got to dress up as a cowboy! ( when I mean by dress up, I mean I wore a cowboy hat!) that was a brilliant experience as the food was excellent and just so relaxing!
At the moment, I’m still trying to get used to the dialect spoken here. For example, a customer asked me for a Lemonade. Simple right? So I gave her a lemonade. She looked at me weirdly and said, ‘ I asked for lemonade’. ‘This is lemonade, madam’ ‘Its sprite’ ‘yes?’. I didn’t realise that sprite and lemonade are two completely different things. I’m getting there, though slowly but surely. Also, the Canadians love my accent! Crazy right? I think my accent is like a snake charm because when there’s a problem at work, my accent solves all the problems in the world! When the Queen died, I was sent so many condolences. I mean, yeah I was sad that she died but I wasn’t buddy buddy with her!😂. I’ve never even met her! I should’ve had a tip jar every time someone tried to console me. I think I would’ve been a millionaire by now!
I am so glad that I’ve found this place. But I’m gutted that it’s seasonal (finishes next month) I feel like I’ve been at the place for months as I’ve felt so comfortable there. I know I need to start looking for another job but I’m just so happy here and I don’t want it to end.
