today
1. I joined the gym. Thankfully my town is blessed enough to have an all female gym (and no, not that curves crap…although we have one of those too). My college aerobics instructor is the co-owner so she hooked me up with a good summer deal. That way when I don’t have to pay for it if I quit using it because school is so nuts. Anyway orientation is tommorow. So yay I have something to write on my empty ass schedule for tommorow.
2. When I got to work…I was going about my happy business doing whatever the hell it is I do before the guests arrive and John (manager) is like "hey can I see you in the office for a sec?" Ummm…ok.. So I go in and Dave (the boss) is sitting there too and I get this whole talking to about Saturday night…which I deserved. They weren’t chewing me out really…just telling me to keep my mouth shut. They’re right too. When I have a problem I talk to EVERYBODY about it…when I should really say absolutely nothing to them and talk to John to get it fixed. This is a problem as in not with a table (those are pretty rare) but a problem like I have seniority over Jamie but she’s getting more tables (just an example…she really wasn’t). Anyway…they totally knew everyone I’d talked to about it. It’s like they polled the entire staff on whether I bitched to them or not. They could have been guessing…but I don’t think they were. I dunno. It was really nervewracking standing there while they said all this. AND John totally brought up how ridiculous I was about waiting on Dave’s family…and said I have to handle them if I want to handle the more important people. He totally did not see it through my eyes. It is straight up intimidating to wait on the boss and his family. You can’t help but think they’re judging you…even if you know they aren’t. Ugh…completely nervewracking. He didn’t get it. He still doesn’t. I am happy to wait on strangers, however important they may be, all day long. It’s the people I know that get me all stressed out. Like those people from highschool who you sorta knew but never liked…they’re the worst. I dunno, apparently for John its was easier to wait on Dave. Since none of you know Dave I’d better call him CHEF. That’s right , Chef as in I went to school for this business and this is one of the top ten restaurants in the state according to southern living chef. Chef as in those scary TV shows. Sure he’s been nice since Katie had the baby but…well it can’t last that long. He scared the crud out of me when I first started there. I’m rambling
3. Seth hasn’t called. I haven’t called him either. I’m sure this is a good thing…but its pretty weird not knowing what’s going on in the life of someone with whom you’ve been involved with for so long.
4. I just had a breakfast shake for dinner. I was hungry and nothing sounded good. But hey! I got protein!! AND it tasted like chocolate. Yum.
