My second week working in DB, and it went pretty well... Worked on this new system last week called the 'bar map', which lists all the upcoming DB promotional events for different bars/clubs around NZ. Thus, Jason (my manager) decided to send me out with the sales team this week to "see" how the sales team set those promotions up and running.
I basically had "road trips" around Auckland for one whole bloody week, moving from one bar to another to set up BBQ pits (competition prize to drive on-site Christmas sales) in Return Serviceman Association Clubs and Cosmopoliton Clubs... The promo site we set up in the bars basically look like this...
Yea, that's how the BBQ pit looks like when it's fully set up... the record time to set up one BBQ pit was...
40 mins!
One of the outlets we went to wanted the BBQ pit on a platform right above the bar! I'm not kidding, ON TOP! It took us a good half an hour with 6 person to get the BBQ pit up there... boy was that hard work... I totally forgot to snap a photo... Bloody!
Back to my "road trip" around Auckland, I travelled to many places I would not thought of going while in NZ, some of those areas are so "ulu" that there was no reception on my phone... (@_@)" But some of the places was just BEAUTIFUL, especially areas around Warkworth... However, I was just too "pai seh" to take out my camera to snap photos while my colleague drove on to our destination...

(Manual) Work was tiring, BUT... I got free lunches and beers from the guys! :p
