everything about my flings with Volkswagon
from the earliest to the latest :p

14-15 March 2009: Passat CC

none of our jobs were fixed
thus there were a lot of job rotations so we kind of do anything and everything :)
from clickers to managing kids' corner top surveyors etc
this was my first assignment with Volkswagen :)

Photobucket

Photobucket the team :)

Photobucket my nonsensical cousin :p

i remember going changi airport for dinner at popeye on that saturday night with baby :p

PhotobucketPhotobucket

Photobucket my first time!! ^^

4-5 April 2009: Golf

i was attached to the test drive counter for the whole 2 days
a new position which i quite like
cause its customer service :)
very me ^^

Photobucket

Photobucket our very white tables and very white chairs
we realise Volkswagen like things to be white
nearly everything in their showroom is white
a very "clean" look :)

it was raining thus they had to take out the umbrellas
the not so "Volkswagen" umbrellas
hahahas

Photobucket Photobucket

Photobucket i dont like the name of this model
hahahas
sound so cheena-ish :x

Photobucket Photobucket
Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket

this time they had other refreshments other than the normal pastries
there is popcorn and ice cream
the popcorn machine was under our charge
Michelle was the one doing it this time :)

Photobucket Photobucket

taking a break :p
Photobucket Photobucket

Photobucket sweet ride & cheap thrills :p hahahahas

Photobucket the very vintage volkswagen at the carpark o.O

on the way home :)
Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket

25-26 April 2009: Jetta TSI

i was back at the test drive counter again
since i know all the procedures and salespersons by the name :)
the counter had become my baby and i am not complaining about the job
i mean, who dont like to sit down all day :p
but it can be a tough job too (plus butt can become uber pain) :x
cork-ups are frequent
and handling the salespersons
tsk
they are both..good and bad..hahahs
but i guess thats what makes customer service jobs difficult - handling the people involved
especially demanding onces

not much photos this time
i am also not sure why
just a few pics of the new car, my counter etc

Photobucket Photobucket

Photobucket they are promoting the boot size of the Jetta
imagine we had to remove all the golf balls and put them into boxes when we clear up on sunday
=.=
and dont be surprise that you have lesser golf balls at the end of the 2 days
cause customers will take one!
yes!
you think they are rich and they dont do such things
so wrong man
those cheapo ppl
come and see and test drive and eat refreshments but dont buy cars ones
zzzz

my test drive counter :)
Photobucket Photobucket

Photobucket the very cui me, with my just woke up face & fading red extensions :x
LOLS

on top of everything, they had new things
a relaxation corner where the masseuse will massage for you
so good right!
lols
Photobucket Photobucket

25-26 July 2009: New Golf GTI

After a long hiatus
Volkswagen is out with a new Golf
and of course i am in the temp staff team :p

the turnout wasnt as good as expected
and it was the worse i had seen in the 4 shows i did
maybe its the price *shrugs*
well, standing and doing nothing but still get paid may sound nice
but, still very tiring can :(
legs were aching like mad and cant sit down during working hours :x

the new Golf GTI
Photobucket Photobucket

there were changes to my test drive counter
the procedure etc
and from the white tables and chairs
to this mean looking counter with the carpets and queue counter
more efficient i guess
but no more chairs!!
i got to stand all the way :(
Photobucket Photobucket

Photobucket the queue numbers counter

for every customers that register for their test drive (dont need to have bought the car)
they gave them a lanyard (the metal buckle is those solide and real heavy kind),
with a card which will show their name, queue number and salesperson's name
i took one and made one card myself :p kekex
but when i was taking pics pf the whole place
i realise that the lanyard is selling for freaking $30!!!!
can you imagine how much VW is spending just to attract more customers?
and of course we have cheapo customers who want the lanyard for themselves, for their kids,
or registered for "test drive" (just for the lanyard only) =.=

Photobucket Photobucket

we had popcorn and ice cream again
Sinda was the (popcorn) man!!
hahahahs
eversince he got praise by a customer for making world best popcorn in the last show
he had been nearly permanently in charge of the machine :p
Photobucket Photobucket

and on top of the above 2
we got the cotton candy machine
and Sinda is here again!
cause he swop with another guy :p
Photobucket Photobucket

the new popcorn man :p
Photobucket Photobucket

we did an experiment and use the pink cotton candy to make pink popcorn
which taste exactly like the yellow one just a different colour :D
and vis visa, yellowish orange cotton candy using the yellow popcorn sugar :)
hahahahas
then we got adventurous and tried mixing the sugars
conclusion is pink and yellow sugar give you pretty orange popcorn
but taste weird :x

me!!! ^^
we all wore "ursher" tags :p
Photobucket Photobucket

another new thing was this 3D show
they had two screens
one was transparent, in between, to make the 3D effect
quite cool :p
PhotobucketPhotobucket
PhotobucketPhotobucket

and the ever-present kid's corner

so little kids

more emphasis of the small turnout of customers
PhotobucketPhotobucket
Photobucket my very cute cousin :p

Sinda taking a break ;p
doing window paint art
Photobucket Photobucket

Jia jia with a cute kid called Cheng wei and loves green ^^
PhotobucketPhotobucket
Photobucket Photobucket

Photobucket Photobucket

Photobucket they had a few computers around for customer's use
all are Apple Macs lo
i guess thats the only computer that is atas and white enough to go with their whole showroom theme :p
i didnt take a picture but even their fire extinguisher box (build in the wall kind) is white lo
imagine if there is a fire
i doubt anyone can easily spot the extinguisher =.=

Photobucket the relaxation corner

they use Kenko staffs this time
actually most of us are nearly standing like them with nothing much to do
too little customers le :x

i realise there are more models of those insanely expensive kids' rides
Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket $219 each!!! o.O
nothing even those run-by-battery kind..tsk..brands =.="

random shots during the show~~~
can see the turnout was quite bad
i was able to even shoot spots that looks super empty :x
PhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucket
PhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucket
PhotobucketPhotobucket

and lastly, the team this time ^^
Photobucket

the one in blue is our new event manager, Samantha
she was really better than the previous one :)
and there is some new faces this time too :)

on the whole
doing this event is always a tiring one
especially when i have to work again on monday
is like 7 days work week
but for the money and a job that really isnt that tough
i guess its worth it :)
that is if my pay dont get drag until weeks later again
my last pay came 2 months later =.=
is lucky i dont need the money urgently lo
tsk

but i guess Samantha will try her best to fight for us this time :D

so thats all for my flings with Volkswagen for now
i do hope there will be a next one and a next one and a next one and a next one...
hahahas
its fun to work with friends and with little responsibilities :p
xoxo, Amber ♥
