So. Week 2 of Friendly's.
I've come to the conclusion that i continue to hate people everywhere I work. People seriously need to cool it. If I tell you theres a wait, just wait. don't flip out if you've been standing there 5 minutes longer than I told you it would be. yeah, some woman today was IN MY FACE screaming at me. I nearly cried. idn, that's just how I am. I cry if someone is screaming at me. whatever. People really treat restaurant workers like shit. They act like theyre insignificant friggin piss-on servants. if something isnt perfect, the waitress and the hostess take the heat, even if 90% of the time its not their fault. Were doing the play in Drama club called "nickled and dimed" and its about this writer who is writing a book arount work. she wants to see if a person can make a living on minimum wage. she works at wal-mart, a diner, and merry maids and a bunch of other places like that.. The way she describes the treatment she gets from customers didnt really hit me until like, today. Its just what im being put through there. they really do treat you like you have no purpose but to cater to their every need. yeah, i know thats what im being paid to do, and im not saying i dont like what I do, its just people need to get a friggin attitude adjustment. seriously. Just because someone is doing the job that no one else wants to do, doesnt mean you have to give them the equal respect you give their line of work.
yeah.
Thats all I needed to say.
Peace and love,
Em
