Two potatoes are standing on a street corner, how can you tell which one is the prostitute? It's the one with the little sticker that says "Idaho"
That being out of the way, tonight was alright. Work started slow, and I noticed that Korrie was there for the first time in two weeks. I remember her saying something about that last time we had chatted, and I was happy to note that none of the prior attachments I had to her were still there. In fact, i am happily not interested in anyone right now, if you can believe, let alone, understand that. I did see Jody briefly- she had gone tubin down the river with most everyone today and they stopped by to pick up cars i guess. Whatever.
I feel weird talking about anyone who was there today, just because the misconception of mentioning any female's name and having an immediate suspicion made that i am interested in them. Sooo, let's do it this way- b was odd today, but then she always is, which makes me laugh.
Anyyyways, Bob almost made me mad tonight. See, every thursday i phase out alongside Jermaine, and now, Virgo. We leave Maria and Josue to close and run the kitchen, and this is a major point of contention with the servers and apparently Bob as well. See, their nowhere near as good at cooking as the three of us, and are often off smoking or just fucking off. Servers can't get their food, nothing is really cooked right, and people complain. Bob said tonight he was going to push for altered schedules, so that we don't phase and screw the closers. Fuck that- i look forward to these two goddamned days I get to phase out and get a FUCKING BREAK!
In the past, when I wasn't good enough for something, no one held my fucking hand and carried me- i had to LEARN my job better. I stuck around at Pargos when Mike and Keri went to Olive Garden, and while I wasn't the best cook yet, I at least knew enough to get me by. But I never had someone watching me to make sure things were ok. i had to learn how to cook, and how to be fast, and fuck me if I got busy. You think I want to stick around and hold their fucking hands? tony's put in his two weeks at Pargos because on Fridays, Josue and Maria fucking think it's goddamned social hour and talk all night long. He couldn't get any food last weekend, and went through the back door pissed off. Tony has been with this company for 16 years, that's twice as much as I have been. Fuck them- they have this shift, they have to deal with it. I don't crap weasels when i get a late rush on Sat, Sun or Monday- the three nights I close do I? There is four people closing on Sundays now, and none of the other three are anywhere near as quick as I am. Fuck that- i am not closing a fourth fucking night a week.
And another goddamned thing. i have a boke, and on days that i don't ride it, either have to walk, or take a cab to work. how in god's name do i manage to beat everyone else to work on Thursdays?
Fucking ridiculous...
