So after 5 months (almost), I was able get a new job - as a front desk agent of a hotel. Luckily, I was able to pursue the career path I wanted although I was still hesitant. I'm still not comfortable with the work atmosphere although my colleagues are very welcoming and friendly. It's been two weeks since my first day and still feeling uneasy.
Why am I not satisfied? I haven't done anything aside from taking reservations and stuffs. I want some real interaction with the guest but I'm not yet being trained (as in really trained) in terms of front desk operations. I'm still stuck in the back office. I don't know if I am the one whose lacking. I know for a fact that I will learn it on a practical basis but operation wise, it is not advisable. Being an agent also involves cash-handling making it difficult (well, unlike 5-Star Hotels who has separate manning for cashiering). Poof. If someone would be really willing enough to train me one on one then maybe I could do it. Very rough start but I understand the adjustment that I should take.
