I woke up to a TopGear marathon on BBCA. My day is fucked. I don't think I'm leaving the house anymore today.
Work has been crazy busy. The firing of my jailed dish guy opened up a spot to bring back a guy I had hired when I first started. He quit to open up a place with a buddy of his but that went south fast and I have been looking for an excuse to bring him back. He is a prep machine and a smokin fast line cook. He is also a Mexican guy so I have someone to speak kitchen spanish to again. When I started I would accidentally answer peoples questions in spanish just out of force of habit. I am stoked to have a real cook in the kitchen again. The guys I have are all nice guys but they are slower than hell and not workers really at all. I knew that there was a reason the four chefs before me only lasted 6 months a piece. Part of it had to be that the crew they were working with couldn't really help them out and then they were also all cocky assholes that didn't like taking direction from a woman.
The girls have started back to school. One upside to Ms. Sun's school failing the No Child Left Behind standards is that 48 kids left the school and so her class only has 15 kids in it. If I had known my kids were going to be affected by it I would have paid more attention when President Corky was trying to push it through. She will do well I know but a smaller class size can only help. The wife found out yesterday that she only has three classes left to go and will be getting her degree in May. I have already requested it off and have started planning her party. I am so happy for her and it is important that one of us has a real degree. We met in college but we both ended up dropping out with out finishing. Like Mr. T says,"stay in school, don't use drugs". Well back to my TopGear.
