Rugby World Cup Event.

So, I was working for the Rugby World Cup event for the past 2 days in the city. It was a promotional job giving out flyers which I got from a classmate. Basically what we had to do was dress up with shirts, scarfs, beanies and face paint of the teams playing that particular weekend and give out flyers.

It's a pretty easy and fun job especially with the things you are able to experience with so many different type of tourist around. The only downside of the job though is that it can be really tiring. But heck, who's complaining? Every job is tiring anyways.

I especially love giving packets of jellybeans to kids and seeing them smile. There was this kid in particular which I saw fell and started to cry. His mum carried him and tried to stop him from crying but he didnt stop. What made him stop and started smiling though was when I went up to him and asked him whether he wanted jellybeans. He stopped crying and said thank you in the cutest voice. Made my day big time =)







There were a few people that we encountered which I particularly remember.

1. A person saying that he did not want to take the flyers just because it's made out from a non recyclable type of paper (arent all papers recyclable??)

2. Old people asking for jellybeans (yes, we had jellybeans with us and they were meant for kids. LOL)

3. A guy which said "Fuck no! Fuck off!" (and yes, he meant it in a very angry tone. PMS much?)

4. A guy which came up and pretended to be interested, started asking questions and in the end, ended up asking us for 2.50 cause he "needed it" LOL.


Can't wait for the next 2 shifts i have next week. Too bad it's only a 4 day thing.


XoXo.
