Later got to go Iluma to close shop. Iluma staff is off today (she's got 2 days off a week while the rest only 1 day as she works longer hrs each day). Whenever Iluma staff is off, another staff goes over to take over. But since the other staff works shorter hrs, she usually comes in later & I cover the extra few hrs (today she switch timing with me so I'll be going in later to close shop). The reason we're NOT getting her to work full day as 1stly it'll be too tiring for her & 2ndly we wanna save down on our cost (OT pay being one of them). Whatever we can cut, we try to cut.
Old stocks are currently giving me a big headache. They are piling up as new stocks come in. But some pple tell me that those old stocks to us are old stocks but to those who haven't seen them before they're actually new stocks. True also. But still...can't let them keep piling up like that. Must think of some way to clear them.
I'm thinking of participating in the chc christmas sponsorship. But my parents don't want to do it as they afraid it'll not work after all the advertisement/sponsorship that we have been doing and yet we don't see any result. These days dad has been nagging a lot whenever he has to sign cheques to pay supplier for stocks, etc etc. Mum say if I wanna participate in the sponsorship I'll have to come out with my own money coz dad will definitely not come out with the money to do so. I'm still considering which package to take up.
Mum wants to have our far east plaza outlet renovated coz according to the fengshui master (whom she gotten to come down to the shop see the fengshui of the shop) our shop location fengshui is no good & he advised us to change the location of our entrance & the signboard. Mum said she already spent so much to get the fengshui master to come down to see the shop, how can don't do the renovation. Another reason for the renovation is also to make space for our shoes that are coming in soon. So the renovation is not completely to do with fengshui.
We've decided NOT to take up suntec's offer. Think they want us to shift out of our current unit so that they can break down the wall dividing the circular unit we're in & rent out the whole circular unit (we took only 1/2 the circular unit) which is much easier then finding some1 to rent the back 1/2 of the unit. If not, why they can reduce rental (at least $1k) for the other shops but yet they just refuse to reduce the rental for us. Till date the other unit that suntec is offering us has changed hands (tenant i mean) for God knows how many times in these past 3 yrs. Moreover the unit is so small...what can we possibly hang? Not worth it to shift to that unit la. Still have spend money on the renovation. How many times renovation must we do in suntec?Think after the contract in suntec ends, we'll just leave.
We're considering taking a unit in the new Clementi Mall. Not only is Clementi near my place, it's near an MRT station, bus interchange & some schools, ite, poly and unis. Think that place may turn out quite good. Today's newspaper mentioned that the mall will be opening in early half of 2011. That's when our iluma contract ends. Still considering.
Ok...that's it for today. Phew...realised that this post is actually quite long. My head's spinning yet I did such a long post. Was just let it all out. Been thinking too much already. My mind hasn't been fully at rest. Must learn to relax. Aiyo...my nose is feeling like a tap flowing non-stop. Think I haven't had enough rest. Been running aroud lately. Busy with stocks (peak period coming). Have cleared 1 pile of accounts. Another pile still not done. Arrrgggghhhh... Headache sia. Rest for a while 1st then head down to Iluma.
