Run With The Wolves -The Prodigy

Yi Yin called me at about 8am in the morning, asking me whether I was free to come down and help out with some job. I was still sleeping my ass off. Logistics, basically. Since I had nothing on the whole day, I accepted it.

Reached Eunos at about 11.30am. And took the bus to the office where Yi Yin works. The place was very familiar to me as Zai Studios was nearby.

Yi Yin picked me up at the bus stop and brought me to the office where she works. It wasn't far.

Well, what greeted me when I entered Fletch-D office was... a mess. There was lots of headroom. And I remembered the target board from the Li Ning event, and it was cut in half. Our first job? To clean out some of the junk.

Oh, and I made a new friend! Yi Yin's secondary schoolmate. A pity I forgot the name. -_-

Once that is done, Wayne, the boss of the place, sent the both of us to the warehouse, where we're supposed to do our work.

Our job was to print the pictures onto the shirts. There was the front and back. My friend did the front, while I did the back. It was fun, and I forgot what this type of printing is called...

*googles "types of printing processes"*

Ah, screen printing!

The machine is very, VERY HOT! If you have no idea how hot it is, check the temperature needed for the image to be printed onto the shirt in the picture below. That's the machine used to print the image onto the shirt.
Basically you have to lay the shirt flat onto the rubber platform, place the film where the image is printed on, with the printed part facing down, on top of the shirt. Making sure that that the shirt is flat, pull the lever down, so that the the shirt, together with the print is clamped in between the top and bottom platforms. After about 5 seconds, lift up the lever, and the top platform will be released. Pull out the film and the image is pasted onto the shirt! =D

That's how many shirts we had to imprint. Tsk!
That's my new friend there, working on the other machine.
This is the first time I did warehouse job. We had to load the boxes full of finished shirts onto the trolley. And what a freaking hot day it was.
To summarise everything, it was a good experience. And good exercise too! Especially pulling the lever down to clamp takes a little of energy off you for every shirt. My right arm was especially tired. It's a good thing we were in an air-conditioned room. Else we'd be sweating in the 'spa.'

I will never take for granted the people who did the shirt printing again, after what I've gone through.
