The first year in Argentina.
To be honest, something that still want to keep for themselves, so do not be offended, if not with all the details.
As I wrote before, we were just horrified at first. First, our hotel was in a not very nice and safe area of town that can already be considered a huge disadvantage.

But we are fortunate that we have here already met some Russian, and decent living at our. Just met with all. First, look closely, walked around the city, razlyadyvali, viewed, sniffed, and so on. After all, communication is very helpful in such situations. Two weeks after his arrival in E accidentally met with two Russian guys, one of which was MCH (former ) Sigma ( Oksanki ), he then introduced us to her. It has already been here more than a year, knew the language and worked. By the way, Oksanka helped me find my first job and knocked me to climb it in gastronomy, at the time the waitress ' monthly salary, plus a tip every day in his pocket, the pocket money ... I am very pleased this alignment, the more something better to claim an incomplete higher education, without the knowledge of the language, I had no right to.
Once Oksanka found a new job in a good restaurant in one of the most expensive areas of the city. She worked at night and earned opupeniya tips for those times when it was $ 1 = 1peso, then tip in the restaurant could earn up to $ 80 per night. And so, at one point, when I despaired to find a job, his hands dropped, I was never taken because of ignorance of the language (although I had taught 8 months), Oksanka called and said they had sacked a girl and a vacancy is free, . I was shaking like a leaf, I thought that I was in the same way as in many places, politely refuse.
The next morning I went to the restaurant, spoke with the manager ( as best I could ) and he said, ' Well, welcome to us, we will learn Spanish ', and smiled sweetly, appointing me time to work on tomorrow.
Luckily I did not have a limit, but I was happy too early.
First, almost all Russian waitress perceived with hostility ( envious creatures ), but one that is always and everywhere helped me, the others were talking to me through his teeth, but not denied care because of this you can get a cap and . I was very upset and uncomfortable.
But the worst thing was that I sometimes could not understand what the client wants, well that is what he says. I have tears in my eyes just appeared on the offense, as well taught, but the vocabulary is not so easy to learn, it takes time, so I crammed corny Graz, uttered by the client, for example: traeme pimenta ( bring me the pepper), the word ' fetch ' I knew . I ran to the kitchen, repeating to myself ' pimenta, pimenta, pimenta ... They led me to a closet with a specialized and clearly showed. In general, it was a nightmare. But I have to go out is not going to, because I really started to make good (for me at age 20 ) money. And my Spanish was getting better and better, and a month later I started to look for jobs and in the night, that night you could earn a good tip for dinner and dancing with the show, not the office lunches, day. So about 3 months I plowed like a horse, and slept for 3-4 hours a day, worked from 9 to 18, rested for 2 hours and returned to 20:00, home, I only fell by 4 o'clock in the morning and again at the 9 . Fortunately, we lived close. New Year ( 2000) I also met serving merry men.
Then we have some reason to delay the salary and okontsovke I quit there and went to another restaurant.
I am very interested in the position of manager, so I started to poke its nose everywhere, as you know, many do not like it, and I was a couple of places just been fired, so I did not win, God forbid anyone podsidela.
So I changed a lot of restaurants, not yet settled on one that was called ' Mambo '.
It was super, I'm such a team has never met, we were pleased to work with, and after the operation were entertained throughout Kompashki. From such razvlekalovok I was a drum vacancy manager and I went head to night clubs, discos, gatherings, etc..
So I worked about two years, until he finally realized that more can not continue, and started looking for a new job. Within half a year, I found it ( be honest, I'm not in a hurry ). This was exactly the hotel, where I worked until recently. On the position of manager of the restaurant could not dream, as a special education mneya even no, experiences, too, just the knowledge that I ponahvatalas 4 years working in restaurants. I had to show that is capable of, here is where serpentarium was Mama Do not Cry. One even wanted to go there, but in time dissuaded.
And after three months, I still made a manager of restaurant. That's where happiness was complete pants. It went, and after another half a year I have again increased, I became the manager of two restaurants one network. Frankly, tin. Have a bunch of subordinates, to run from one hotel to another, listening to the roar of the chief, to report to the owner, plus customers, suppliers, administratsionnaya work, it will not paste a ruble and twenty. So at one point I just went to the roof, and soon found another manager and I was just working in a hotel. But this I do not like, 3 years after all of this is straining a lot, I'm tired!.
So, now I'm working where I work, what incredibly happy!.
And the parents will not write because the story is very personal, sorry.
I want to say, wherever you are, if you have the desire and commitment, you can get all!.
