Work
So KingPin is pissing me off.
I still enjoy it, but it's pissing me off. I'm sick of spending shifts standing behind the bar bored out of my mind because I've already cleaned everything, or being pissed off cos some things look like they havent been cleaned since I was last working. So 3 months.
[cleaning the beer tray thinga]
manager: surely there are more important things to do?
me: considering there is yeast floating in this - no.
I had been hoping I could get a junior manager/supervisor gig, and I thought I had a pretty good chance too. Until I saw the managers list and apart from Corey (senior) they're all people who were standard floor staff until the holidays. Including the brother of one of them. I rekon that if I didn't go away, I could have gotten the spot the brother has. And I don't think any of them are going to go anywhere soon. However I thought Shawkat was going to America. Hmm, Shawkat loves me. He'll do some manipulating for me.
I'm going to stay at KingPin, but I'm thinking of getting a second job, as I only ever get 2-3 shifts at KingPin anyway.
I'm thinking of putting my resume in at Alan's work. But I'm really worried because KingPin is SlackVille and I'm worried that if I go to work at a real job again, I'll make heaps of mistakes and bugger it up. I don't see any logical reason for me buggering it up, just purely because I haven't worked in a bistro environment for about a year now and my last bistro/bar job I had I got fired (although I didn't yet have my head screwed on after coming back to Australia, moving out and starting uni). And cos KingPin we pretty much get paid to stand there and look pretty.
I think I should just try for it and have some confidence. Fuck! I stood up in classrooms in another country only months after I had left the classroom myself!
