so its saturday which means its part time job day. yes..i work another job other than my dream day job. i'm a waitress at a local restaurant and while i have been waitressing off and on since i was 13 this is the first time i have ever really don't like it. not to say that its terrible..its just no fun. my last serving job i was a "pub wench"..now that was enjoyable. and a lot more interesting than where i'm headed in about 10 minutes. you could socialize with the staff and customers alike. here..its gett'm in and gett'm out. quick as lightening. quantity vs quality. ick! i'm a quality girl..like to get to know my tables, joke or exchange information. (makes for better tips that way) but also because these people share the planet that i live on. why wouldn't i? *to be continued*
so anyway..i started writing this before i went to work and now its...after work lol i ran outta time to finish it earlier. * attempts to look sheepish * so, as i was saying. getting to know a wide variety of people is awesome...the tidbits of information you get from your customers is astounding..and the regulars! oh the regulars are cool..for the most part..sometimes not good. i loved to see the same people whenever i worked...weekends mostly. you knew them and what they were doin..they knew you and what was goin on with you. it was cool. i recently had a regular..a fav of mine ..die suddenly. i had moved away just shortly before his death and i felt horrid that i didn't see him before it happend. we called him chick. i miss him. here's to you chick!
boy did i ever get off topic...all in all..the point is..that i like to give good quality service with a healthy does of human connection thrown in for good measure. maybe i need to quit this job? hmmmm.
