So I'm so tired I can barely stand up. This is my second double in a row. Wouldn't be so bad except i got home extremely late last night and had to get up early. The reason is because Clints flight which was supposed to come in to salt lake at noon was canceled. Apparently his plane broke, then they sent him to another city where he could get a flight later. He got in late so I went and picked him up at the airport. Today was going ok except for the extreme exhaustion barely being held at bay by vivarin and will power. Except now Clint's family just got me in trouble wiht my work. His mother and sister planned some big last farewell for their grandfather's friends on monday in my works private dining room. His sister called me friday and told me about it and asked what time dinner was served at. I told her she needed to make sure that they called in and made a reservation. She said that they already had and that she had just forgotten what time they told her dinner was served. So I said 5:30. Then she invited me to come have dinner with them. I told her I couldn't because I work that night. End of conversation. Then today I get a call from my boss saying that her mother called him and asked to do the reservation adn said that I was going to serve them that night. That it was ok that he didnt have a hostess to do it. I never even talked to her so I don't know where this came from. On top of that my boss was upset because we won't have enough people to deal with the reservation monday, and he thought i was telling them things or giving them the ok. I'm telling him no I didnt even talk to this women and the only information they got from me was what time dinner is served. (It's not illegal to tell people what time dinner is served at.) He ignored everything I was saying and kept telling me how if it happens again tell them that I don't handle those things and to talk to the front desk. I'm telling him I didn't tell them those kinds of things and they did call the front desk. The problem is he doesnt answer his phone and deal with the problems until it's to late. If he'd called them back on friday and then asked an extra hostess to come in for monday everything would be fine. As it stand not only is he upset with me for somethign i had no part of, but monday if we do the reservation we'll have to work short one person so that one server can serve the reservation, leaving all the hostesses who have to struggle through dinner because they are handling twice as many people also upset with me/chester. grrrrrrrrrrr. right now i really don't want to talk to clint's family. I feel like crying i'm too tired to deal with this crap. And on top of all this i get to look forward to working a double tomorrow and the day after that. Four in a row. I think i'm going to keel over.
