Among other things…"},"content":{"rendered":"

OK where can I start?\u00a0 Really…\u00a0 Thursday, a totally non douchey day!\u00a0 I got to chill with the lovely Jen, Clint, Ron & Chantal before racing off to work for a few hours and then had a lovely gab with a very lovely person<\/a> and her hubby.\u00a0 So all in all it was a nice enjoyable day with good people & good conversation (thank you I needed that! <3).\u00a0 Then Friday hit and everything just went to shit after that…\u00a0 I get into work at 5pm as per the usual, nothing was too crazy but I had a feeling it was going to be \\”one of those<\/em> days\\” all the while muttering I love my job…\u00a0 Mostly to myself.\u00a0 However sometimes <\/span>most of the time I do<\/strong> in fact love where I work!\u00a0 We have such a great team of people, lots of inside jokes, stupid little pranks and a pretty good atmosphere to top it off which is nice!\u00a0 However culinary life, regardless of the role you partake in, isn\\’t for everyone either.<\/p>\n

My co-worker seemed at odds but he\\’s still new-ish so that was the norm.\u00a0 It does however get a little frustrating when you have to tell someone the same thing a 100 times.\u00a0 If there\\’s something wrong with you IE: you have a learning disability or something then for the love of God SAY SOMETHING!\u00a0 Anyway, its about 6:15pm I\\’m doing some dishes and general tidying up because Friday nights are usually pretty crazy and I wanted to be ready for the rush.\u00a0 I happened to glimpse my co-worker sneaking out the door, thinking he was going out for a smoke.\u00a0 Which irritated me to no end because we were only a little over an hour into service but whatever, gotta get your breaks in when you can right?\u00a0 Then about 20 minutes roll by and I asked my manager if he could track him down because it was starting to pick up a little bit.\u00a0 He left…\u00a0 Didn\\’t say a word to anyone, just snuck out the back door and out the alley in the back and went home.\u00a0 Are you fucking kidding me?!?<\/p>\n

Thankfully two people rose to the occasion and came into bail my ass out along with my manager (thanks guys!\u00a0 I really appreciated that!) and all in all Friday night in spite of loosing a staff member was actually pretty smooth overall.\u00a0 Didn\\’t leave until 5am but it got done without any major mishaps.\u00a0 So as much as that pissed me off, because that\\’s such a white trash, douchy thing to do; in the end it was OK.\u00a0 So I went home, crawled into my uber amazing bed and slept soundly.\u00a0 So then Saturday rolls around, poor D had to work to replace my MIA co-worker which had to suck but we got it done.\u00a0 We were having a good time, Saturday in fact was full of fun, laughter and some really bad commentary.\u00a0 I had high hopes in spite of working with yet another new guy who had only worked a few shifts.\u00a0 We were having a great time…\u00a0 That is until about 9-ish when the whining started.\u00a0 I have ZERO tolerance for anyone who whines, especially a 19 year old law student… \u00a0 Asking me for a break when you\\’ve only been there for 2 hours, TWO HOURS?!? Are you kidding me?\u00a0 So whatever I figured he might as well take on now because if it got busy then the chances of him getting one at all were pretty nil.\u00a0 Still irritating though just the same.<\/p>\n

Then the nagging started…\u00a0 Can I go home? No.\u00a0 Why not? Because I said so.\u00a0 and on and on it went.\u00a0 This kid was really starting to get on my nerves!\u00a0 Then it got busy, it got to the point where I was SO frustrated I wanted to cry.\u00a0 It takes a lot to get me to that point…\u00a0 I was so tired, I just quite simply couldn\\’t take it anymore!\u00a0 I didn\\’t know if I was coming or going, my co-worker well there\\’s only certain things he knows how to do and I tell ya sneaking out that backdoor was MORE then a little appealing to me.\u00a0 If you know what I mean.\u00a0 So I texted my immediate boss to make him aware of the situation and well to air out some frustration while I was at it.\u00a0 I also mentioned to the owner who was working that night that I needed stronger help on the busiest days.\u00a0 I mean seriously, we broke a fucking sales record last night!\u00a0 Strong staff IS required!\u00a0 What did he do? Shrugged it off and bacially gave me a look that said:\\”what do you want me to do about it?\\” FUCK THAT!<\/p>\n

So I\\’m out…\u00a0 I can\\’t do this anymore.\u00a0 Culinary life has been my life since I started working.\u00a0 Its whoring up all my time, making me bitter, jaded and so. very. angry.\u00a0 I am going back to school but I wanted to pare down my Visa bill a little bit first but you know what?\u00a0 I don\\’t think that I can wait any longer…\u00a0 So in the meantime I am \\”exploring\\” other avenues outside of my career field that can tide me over until I get my BA, hell even a diploma would suffice at this time.\u00a0 Which sucks so hard because I love where I work!\u00a0 The stress, the bullshit and the drama however is enough to make me want to throw myself in front of a bus!\u00a0 When you walk out of work needing some Valium its time to go…\u00a0 I\\’m going to miss that place though when I go \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n

On a random note, I really miss Jason!\u00a0 So much!\u00a0 I also miss being in school…\u00a0 Who knew?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
