Greg says:hi tony-- hows it going
Tony Tonique Bjork says:things arent running as smooth as i though it will
Greg says:ah-- that's too bad
Tony Tonique Bjork says:haha ya... that sucks
Greg says:yeah-- you mean the waiter job isn't as much fun as you thought?
Tony Tonique Bjork says:well
Tony Tonique Bjork says:i thought i did my job really well
Tony Tonique Bjork says:but unfortunately they dont see it that way
Greg says:ah-- but you've only been there a couple of months
Tony Tonique Bjork says:haha well you should understand all those working politics well
Greg says:yes-- i imagine
Tony Tonique Bjork says:haha
Tony Tonique Bjork says:m quite surprise
Tony Tonique Bjork says:when a girl coming 2 weeks later than me got promoted to junior few days ago
Tony Tonique Bjork says:while i am still a trainee
Greg says:i c
Tony Tonique Bjork says:kinda... frustrated and disappointed
Greg says:what do they say you need to improve?
Tony Tonique Bjork says:personality
Tony Tonique Bjork says:be more serious... not to laugh too much during works etc...
Tony Tonique Bjork says:but what i think is, being a waiter i should be interactive to both customers and my colleagues
Greg says:well, i agree about with the customers
Tony Tonique Bjork says:i really dont understand why would they take my 'interactiv-ity' as being lazy or not serious etc
Greg says:but with coleagues, it may be distracting to business
Greg says:if managment see employees talking and laughing together during work time it looks like they aren't paying attention to job and customers
Tony Tonique Bjork says:...
Greg says:you mean you don't agree or don't understand?
Tony Tonique Bjork says:dont really agree
Greg says:ok--
Tony Tonique Bjork says:they are like... throwing all those blamings on me
Greg says:but I will bet that that is what managment is saying
Greg says:your personality is just naturally outgoing and friendly
Greg says:but i can see why management would worry about distractions cuz the place is really busy
Tony Tonique Bjork says:haha
Greg says:I sometimes get the same comments at work because i go and talk with people in the office during work times
Greg says:but i've been there for 30 years, so they put up with it
Tony Tonique Bjork says:not really... there are times (well actually most of the time) where we only have a FEW customers...
Tony Tonique Bjork says:anyway
Tony Tonique Bjork says:i am kinda pressured and i dont think i will be happy working in that environment
Greg says:yep i can see that, and agree that you want to start looking for something else
...

i think working environment is very important and i don't think that's anything wrong being friendly and talkertive (not being a chater box, of course)if you really feel uncomfortable then i support you looking for others. whatelse, everybody has right to search their happiness...(*_^)
