casa bonita

I was reading a book for school, and fell asleep. I proceeded to have a 2 hour long nightmare. About what, you might ask?

About working at Casa Bonita again. The country's largest restaurant, where I used to work. Where people used to stand in line for 2-3 hours in the summer, and touir busses would included it on their stops. It's 25,000 square feet. Seats 1100 people. Has a 33 foot working water fall, and 12 foot deep lagoon, with entertainment including fire divers, regular divers, a pirate show, a gorilla show, a shootout and more. There is a puppet show, a hide out, cotton candy, a gift shop, 2 arcades, 3 floors. 24 differently theme dining areas, including the bordello looking magic room, performing magician and all. One room (which I only had to work in 3 times, thank heaven) was .5 miles away from the kitchen. It was featured on South Park once, as the "Mexican Disneyland".

In my nightmare, I was working there again. Instead of a normal section (3-5 tables), them combined sections, and I have 6 people's sections, basically, all of the gold and silver mines (about 23 tables). No one ever told me when I was sat, all the customers lost their chits (the things a server needs to scan in their tables, and you get "a strike" against you if you don't have at the end of the night), everyone had the all you can eat platters (which servers have to refil), and they kept their flags up, even if they didn't need anything, so the managers started yelling at me, and telling me I was lying etc, but they wouldn't fire me, they just kept me, making me work in this living hell. it was horrible.

And then I woke up.

Oh Casa Bonita...years later, you still suck away parts of my life...
