Ok, so this morning I wake up in a blur with my eyes all blurry at 12. I get ready and I participate in some CDRR watching for about 23 minutes. I eat lunch then I go to work at 2:45. I get to work and what do I see?? A line about 30 feet and there's only 3 people working in the store!! One to take the money/fill the orders , one to roll the pretzels and dip them in butter and one to help the first two. So I go in there to make it four and Mary, my trainer and second highest in the store, asks me if I need help with making or dipping pretzels before she clocks out for her shift. I say "No, it's ok, I got it." So she goes away and everything's ok....
BUT!!! A swarm of pretzel-hungry Fatasses decide to bombard our counter at once!! So I mentally go into overdrive and I start cuttin' and slappin' pretzels down on the counter like I'm making them to diffuse a bomb. Tray after tray of pretzels and still...... the people came. They even wanted multiple orders of one item. This got on my nerves up until 5. Where was Mrs. Brenda??? Home.... taking the day off when she should be at WORK helping us out! So after that 2 and a half hour rush of retardedness, things start calming down from the big memorial day rush. I mop the place and lock it up and then I head home.
Mom and dad were awake and mom offered some crawfish etoufee. THE BEST she's ever made it. She made the roux with butter instead of cooking oil and man was it good. After that, I told my mom how rough the night was and she was like "you want a beer?" Then I said "I hate beer but I could use one or two!" So 2 coors lite for me did the trick and man I'm tired as hell.
Let's just see how Tuesday goes lol hopefully the rain will keep the shoppers at home where they need to be instead of showing their lardasses at the mall so they can order 10 pretzels and ask for a refund.
