More reasons why life is hard and short like a body building elf: Johnny Rockets... Golf... TNT

well lets see, what happened since the last time you read this thing?

I got a job, i failed to tell everyone the details so here goes. Im a server at Johnny Rockets aka 50's greese pit. Im forced to wear a goofy apron, hat, BOW TIE, and sing and dance to 50's songs. The job is ALRIGHT at best except ive been closing since ive worked there, and im gettin tired of moping the entire store while other people sit on their ass and do nothing, but thats besides the point. I make a good bit of change (70 bucks in tips the other night), but i gotta put up with mismanaged fools all day. Out of all the people that work there ive only really become friends with one or two people. The rest are either too concieded, bitchy, and (as Brandi puts it) "High School".

Waiting on people is a totally new experience for me. Im not used to taking abuse, well i am but im not used to taking abuse and getting paid for it. U'd be surprised at the type of people we get in there. Old people are the worst, when they ask for a glass of seltzer and you have to charge them for it (1.99) they look at you like what the hell, but then i remind them that even though the place looks like its out of the 50's our prices aren't. The managers there are a pain in my ass too. One of them we'll call her Ada (dont worry i spelled her name backwords to protect her identity, oh crap i wasnt supposed to tell you that. now you've cracked my code) is a fuckin dictator. There HAS to be 20 Sugars, 10 Sweet and Lows, and 10 Equal packets in each holder, as well as filled to the brim salt, straws and ketchup bottles. God forbid your shirt gets untucked from the back or she'll be all over you on that too. Oh and "pre bussing", the act of annoying the fuck out of people while they eat to remove one used tissue has to be done every 5 seconds.

The other managers, we'll call them greeseball and talkaboutyoubehindyourbackinfrontofyourface are rediculiously inept. One of them, greeseball fucked up my till the other night, shorted me 100 bucks, and forged my signature. Aside from the snobby waiters\waitresses (with the exception of one, not myself haha), love-ins in the walk in fridge, vietnamize whores who dont wash dishes, finding out, aparantley, that im deaf (im not its just that people talk too low, keep in mind sound takes too long to travel to my freakishly tall ears), and cracked out customers and support staff it aint that bad of a place to work. Its a job, im not gonna quit, if i get fired its cool, but ill ride this out as long as it will take me.

What else is new you ask? Not that u did.. but my dad is walkin around fine now after his knee replacement surgery a month ago. HOPEFULLY he'll go back to work soon so he can get off my ass about drivin him everywhere. My moms doin alright, except last week she fell and broke her toe, its probably going to wind up infected and shes probably going to wind up back in the hospital and shes probably going to have to have it amputated. Knock on wood that she wont though.

Ive been putzin around on my days off, which are few and far between mind you. Yesterday i went to jersey and shot a game of golf with my buddy from school, shot the worst game of golf in the history of golf, didnt finish it got so bad. THen we set off fireworks and nearly blew off my hand, but it was all in good fun. I coulda let the professionals do it and seen it downtown or in lawncrest, but no i had to be joe pro blow my arm off.

im also an idiot and ramble alot and i dont think before i speak. more on that later ...:(

Im gonna be posting pics i took that i think are great. One is of Cape May's lighthouse, the other is of a sunset at sunset lake in wildwood. THe link can be seen in my AIM profile. I really wanna go down there again, and stay for more then just 5 mintues. In the meantime i need someone to go with me. Any takers? Well ive written a book, when i get a chance i have this movie quiz i gotta take and ill post it later. for now peace out gangstas
