My 3 daughters have all worked part-time at a cafe in our neighbourhood in KL. Sherilyn started there at 16, working weekends while studying, to partially fund her multiple dance classes. Then Alycia followed suit, though she has since stopped after starting her full-time job. Recently, Cass joined the team too.
I told Cass that she could stop once university starts in July, but she insists on keeping the job and works once or twice a week. The pay may not be fantastic, but the bosses treat their staff incredibly well. Meals are provided too, including the cafe’s own food, which is genuinely good.
What I appreciate most is how warmly the bosses treat their staff — like family. They organise annual dinners, outings and celebrations, and whenever the girls or I were unwell, they would send us cakes or bread. They are really kind and thoughtful people.
This was Cass’s breakfast today at work — waffles with fresh blueberries and bananas, plus a cup of latte. Quite a luxurious breakfast for staff! 😊
I’m truly thankful that my girls have always had good bosses and happy working experiences, even in part-time jobs. Hopefully, when the time comes for their full-time careers, they will continue to meet caring employers and good people along the way.
