Busy
Yes, Ive been busy. Ever since working I dont have time to do things I usually did.
Weekdays are dedicated to school work, weekends are dedicated to work work. Which leaves no time for hobbies. But of course I have to spend some time on the computer and I need to read too so, of course I cant give up that stuff! But other than that... I cant do much else.
Oh well, atleast it means Im never bored.
Work is going alright. Ive only been there for a month and its not like I became a professional in that time, no, I make mistakes (often) but I learn from them and hopefully wont make the same mistakes again (though I have already made the same mistake more than twice... and they were bad mistakes). Oh well, no one can blame me! Its my very first job and in a popular restaurant/sports bar!
Atleast -some- of my co-workers are nice. All of the other hostess/to-go people are nice.
The Okra Strut was this weekend. Its a weird... thing that goes on in South Carolina. Its like a mini town carnival for a vegitable. It had rides and tons of consession stands... By the way, the restaurant is apart of a short strip mall that has other stores connected to it... and you know that strip malls share a parking lot. Well, this Okra Strut carnival was right our front in the parking lot. There was never a time when people werent coming into the store. Not even half of them wanted to sit and eat, most were in to use the rest room or get a drink to take out with them. It was BUSY.
Friday I worked a full time shift! I didnt get home until midnight! It was fun though cause me and Ashton were working together (Ashton is a senior at another high school) He's really funny. The entire night (past 9pm) Me and him were complaining so bad that we were tired and wanted to go home. And the biggest joke of the night was that both me and him were being illegal. Teens under 17 arent supposed to work past 10/11 and we were there til midnight.
The very next day we were both working again at 11 (the Okra Strut lasted Fri-Sat) and by that evening me and Ashton were like "uuugghh, so tiiired, wanna leave, ugggghhh *dead*" It was pretty funny.
But yeah, I hope it never gets that busy again. Except that next Sunday. I was hoping it was going to be nice and slow after the Okra Strut but it wasnt. I was the only hostess and an entire church came (35+ people) and took up 2 of our 3 servers that morning and so the only available server for over an hour was waiting on 7 different tables at once. Stressful times. Thats the reason I never wanted to work at a restaurant but... oh well.
Anyway, enough of my rant. I have stuff to do.. -.-;;;
