These past two days, I've been practically living at the coffee shops, helping my friend study for the exam that her boss is giving her today. I don't mind helping her, and sometimes it's even a bit fun, particularly since I'm the one throwing out the questions. Poor thing, my friend works at a hotel and has had to cram a lot of what I consider to be useless information these past two days, stuff that can be easily referenced on a computer system or cheat sheet and that is a waste of valuable time and talent to commit to memory (i.e., type of room, type of bed in each room, business hours for all the restaurants, 3 pages of acronyms, codes for different types of guests, etc.). But she works at a top notch establishment, and I guess this is part of the service you get for the exhorbitant prices you pay.
My Chinese studies are going well, and is a breeze and delight compared to working in hospitality.
