I am growing weary of the service industry. My associate at work who has been working there for 8 years said that love for the game comes and goes in waves. I am currently on the downstroke. I find myself hating work and not wanting to go. Maybe its just work in general. I'm not going to quit or anything, I am simply experiencing difficulty in being nice to people.

"The other waiters get me honey"
"I'm not the other waiters ma'am we dont offer honey"
"I understand that you dont offer it, but you put it on a pizza"
"We dont put it on a pizza, you must be thinking of onion marmalade"
"Well, whatever. Just get me the honey, I know you have it back there"
"Ma'am. We dont offer honey, we use it in our dough. The honey is for Dough. Not you"
"Well, I never."
"Never what?"
"I cant believe this"

"Ma'am I will be right back with some honey for you"

Exchanges such as this one send me over the top. Separate checks, cold soup. Complaints. They were my first table. I decided I have had enough of this crap today, so I handed the dining room over to my associate and asked him to enjoy the earnings. I am considering purchasing the Aggrolites CD. Though I really should not. I really want that Tim Armstrong with the Aggrolites CD, it is my understanding however, that this recording was only published on the internet.
