these past few days have been hectic and stressful. and, of course, on my day off from Uno's i have my first training session at the Hilton.
i worked everyday from Wednasday til Sunday at Uno's and my feet hate me for that. i even worked a double sunday, missing the oscars completely (btw: does anyone know who won anything), but making about $120.

hope things are going ok with your jobs i have a new found appreciation for my cruise control in my car. my feet were killing me after work tonight (and still are), so much so that i pretty much used the cruise control the entire way home.
i made pretty good money tonight. i had a 10 top birthday with 20somethings who ordered A LOT of drinks (especially 20oz Buds). i think i...

I uhhh realized after I bought my car that it did not have cruise control. I was VERY confused, and considered returning it briefly.
cheech:
Well, it's apparently not even an option or else I surely would've bought it.
People seem to have a huge problem with the ergonomics of the radio/CD in the Scion. I have no problem with it, but Consumer Reports complained, so now the steering wheel has the CD/ volume controls where cruise control would be, and I guess I confused this for including some cruise control at first.

so apparently now i have 2 jobs.

Can you clear weeknights from Uno's, or would you want to keep their bonus time open too?
so....
tonight was kinda crazy, but i guess that was to be expected. i'll give you guys the short synopsis.
i was suppose to have three tables, but ended up with only two (one kept being combined for parties, so i never used it except once). i got almost no cash tips, which sucked, and i was stiffed once ($1.91 tip for two people, stupid...

there's one in the harborish area, near barnes and nobles and hard rock cafe, but i go to the one in mt. washington, because it's super easy to get there by light rail..
of course, i haven't been there for a while, and it looks like it'll still be a while before i get there..

i hate the way foodservice works in the states. they have their shit straight in europe. you don't have to tip cuz they pay people enough. this whole thing where you get payed less than min wage and are expected to make enough tips just to get up to min wage is utter bullshit.
that being said, i hate people who are idiots and don't understand our (stupid) system and that you should tip and if you can't afford the tip then don't go out to eat.

i stole this from er, who stole it from someone else, who stole it from someone else. do it, please
it's quick, cool, fun, and should be stolen by everyone!
and as a sidenote: i have a shit load of recipes to learn by tomorrow for my battery of tests, just so i can give people their food.
life is a fucking trip.

So I had an interesting dream last night. Skipping the nonessential portions, I was riding in the passenger seat of a big passenger van returning home from a trip with Cairo and various people from my bartending academy. There were two vans and mine was at the front. The drivers, it turns out, hijacked the vans. My driver starts speeding, sets the sides of the...

You seem to have forgotten that we had a discussion about my perky nipples a week or two ago (maybe at the game?). That adds to the dream weirdness!

i had a lovely weekend. thnx.
so tomorrow is orientation for the new job. it actually would have been yesterday, but the fates conspired for my voicemail to not receive the message from my new boss telling me this. thankfully, i ended up calling work just as they were starting, and all was resolved with her still loving me.
i'm kinda nervous but kinda overjoyed too. i want to work. i...
