We arrived to Malta in saturday at 1pm. The weather was pretty sunny and warm when our contact person came to pick us up at the airport. The first day was getting to know place and the apartment which is located pretty far from center of Malta.
On Sunday we went to see Valletta which is capital of Malta. It was little bit of disappointment but there was some dope stone castle. Rest of the day went to getting ready for the first work day at the Bortex.
The first day at Bortex was okay. We met the people and co-workers and then we did little bit of work. There is many diffirent departments at Bortex which means many diffirent tasks but the first day I was working at designer department to cutting some fabrics and moving boxes and plastic folders from place A to B.
Tuesday was St. Patricks day which meant day off and we went to center of Malta to Sliema, Gzira and to Saint Julian to watch when people celebrated holiday.
Wednesday and Thursday in Bortex was similar, I worked in designer department and making some model fabrics and little bit of other tasks.
At Friday I got transfered to purchasing department where I checked some stocks and for example checked that if certain button is in stock and then I had to mark it down. Lot harder than it sounds. Hope that I could do some sales or other tasks next week. Now it is Friday 6pm and where about to go paceville to have some fun.
Seeyah!✌️🤙
It’s good to know that you are all settled in at your workplace and apartment in Malta. The weather looks perfect in the pictures and I believe it’s getting warmer every day.
VastaaPoistaBortex must be a fairly large store with many departments. Could you compare it to, for example, Sokos or Stockmann in Finland? Do they sell mainly expensive brands?
You need to speak English at work. How do you like it? Do your workmates speak good English? How about the dress code? Is it black and white as we were informed?
How about your bus rides to work and back. How long does it take to get to Bortex? Are the buses full?
Looking forward reading more about your stay in Malta.
