Funny work stories
Okay, so just to give you an idea of what work was like today, I beat the 4th dungeon from Zelda: Oracle of Ages on my Game Boy, while at work. And that's including all the crap they make you go through to get to the dungeon too. I made $50. Not bad...but definitely not good. I miss working at Bill Knapp's.
Funny story...at 12:20-12:30 this guy comes in. Amanda got him a water while he looked at the menu. I thought he was retarded (literally), as his voice was really slurred, and he pretty much submerged his face into his glass as he drank through the straw. Finally, after much "comtemplation" he orders a bit of food, and goes to the bathroom. He's in there for about 10 minutes when we decide that we should check in on him. When I go in there, he's getting some paper towels or something. So he says, "I really had to get that out, man...blahdy blahdy blah..." I just kind've tuned him out, but then he proceeded to go back to the stall and relieve himself (again?). I leave. It's about another 5 minutes before he comes out to eat his food. He eats his burger, then I bring out his dessert, which he pretty much had his face buried in. We're closed now, I should mention. So after i take his empty dishes away, he goes back to the bathroom. He's in there for another good 10-15 minutes before we decide to check on him. We decided who got to go with some "rock, paper, scissors" since none of us wanted to know what he was doing in there. I lost. So I go in there, and he's sitting on the floor in a stall.
I ask him "are you alright, man?"
"yeah, i just really had to go" and flushes the toilet...like I can't see him sitting on the floor.
"Well, hurry up, alright? We're trying to leave." (it's about 1:30)
"Ok" and starts to get up, at which point I leave. He's in there for another 10 minutes before we call the cops and they take him in to sober up.
I should note...I've had little to no experience with people this drunk...prolly why I didn't figure that bit out a little sooner. So we didn't get out of work til almost 2.
BUT THERE'S MORE!!!
As the cops were taking him away, he tells us. "Sorry guys, I was just cleaning my shoes...I just got off work, I'm tired!"
It was everything I could do to just focus on Zelda and not laugh...
On the plus side, he gave me 65 Euro cents (on top of $1.50 American).
And that's my adventure of the day. It's 5:37 now, and I have to work at 11. Tomorrow may be kinda funny...
