Customer

So this is the actual content written on the receipt I got, few days back while working (updated on my fb wall)

Today at XX's,
I was caught in a moral dilemma. The nice cashier had handed me 41.80 in change instead of the supposed 31.80. I kept the unexpected gift in my wallet quickly, but throughout my meal, I had the n****** (I seriously can't figure what's this word) sensation that that way the wrong thing to do. Would she be tired? Or have to work extra hours? Or have her pay deducted for her little mistake? Thought like these ran ceaselessly through my mind. At one point, I even wanted to call her over, to return the ill-begotten money, but I couldn't see her name. It's a pity, I suppose, but in a pragmatic, business-like environment, you smile & take all the brealy (I have no idea what this work means but it is what he wrote there) you can get. Hard luck, miss cashier.

Yup, that's the whole thing.
The reason why I wanted to keep this with me is... I have no words to describe whatthehell he's thinking and I'm doing at that point of time. Obviously, I am in fault but he seems a lil overdo in a way by writing this. Or well, he might just want me to have my lesson. Ok granted.

Anyway, have been working this hols. Not the hectic kind but still, I feel tired even after a short 6 hrs of work. When I'm like 17-18 I can work up to 14 hrs a day and continue the next but now after 6 - 8 hrs I'm alr dead let it be 12hrs. The mindset of quitting has been in my mind of days after since YY mention. Well, that reminded me of the first time I quit. I regretted and had my job back thanks to Ryan but think of it, I've been in this lime since sec 2. So it's like 7 yrs in f&b. How sick can I be, but if I were to quit now I won't have extra cash for sch hols, and I will rot at home. I can't. I don't like to stay home daily during the hols. I need to work. Well, I will find the job that I want (trying) and quit this.

He said" Isn't we happier like this?"
Yes we are.
