Day 146-147 in Mount Isa, Australia

2013/08/09

    Today I work in the Rodeo show for Professional Bull Rider. I sell some hot dog and hot chips. My supervisor is a 17 year young cute girl named Courtney Warner. She is patient and nice. She has already worked for Jacky for 2 and half years. I always cannot remember some products' price like lollipop and cotton candy which is not bought very often. I always ask Courtney as a activity price list. Courtney and Jacky ask me if  I want to work around Australia with this job.  I think I am really lucky that I had some experience in Sydney Easter Royal Show. It help me a lot. I think my performance is not too bad because I already changed for 5 coworkers in two days: two women from Fiji, a girl from Taiwan,1 black young girl and 1 England uncle. 

    People are dressed as cow boy style in show. This is the second largest Bull Rider Show in the world. There are some young cow boys ride on crazy calves and young cow girls ride on the horses and catch mad cows. There are also crazy horses ride by cowhands. Some of riders can hold more than 15 seconds and drew many applause.

    We talked a little about massage in Mount Isa with Courtney and she gave me a word "Robin Hood Thief" when she know the different price between Mount Isa and Brisbane. It's means higher price for customers' cash.

    Australian girls can make anythings themselves. When I saw Courtney is working, She can do many things herself even if heavy work like electrician and heavy lifting. Jacky said " Keeping my phone number and ringing me if you have trouble any time if you are in trouble in Australia." when I leave. I think it's really easy to make new friends and useful resources if you give some good image to people around you.
