Yay For Serving!
Tuesday, April 12, 2005
Well I don't have too much to talk about on this rainy Tuesday morning but I do have to share the store of my first serving experience so I definitely though I needed to write.

First off, on Sunday night Rich came over to spend the night. I feel bad because I've been fairly sick with allergies lately and by the time he showed up I was all sleepy because of my allergy medicine. So Rich shows up and I'm just out of it and wanting to cuddle up and go to sleep. So Rich watched court TV and during the commercials he'd cuddle me a little bit. It was nice having him over even though I'm sure he wanted to DO something and not just sleep. In the morning I woke up and went to astronomy and then came back for a little more cuddle time with Rich *smile* I adore him. I just adore him.

Dustin and I went to work a little early yesterday to get something to eat before we started working. I found out I was serving by myself which was SO NICE to know because I really didn't want to waste another night of tips training when I felt like I didn't need to be training. I was slightly nervous at first but then again it's not like I've never served before... I generally take the counter when I'm hostessing and it's busy. The night went pretty well, I didn't have any complaints about food or about me as a server. For some reason with every waffle or pancake I delivered I forgot the syrup but as soon as I got out to the table I remembered so it wasn't a huge deal. I ended up making about $50 in tips which is GREAT for a Monday night because we're always slow on Mondays. That's about $10 an hour, much better than the $6.50 I was making as a hostess.

The best part is that I actually look forward to going to work... like, I'm actually excited for tomorrow when I can serve again. I love being able to interact with the customers more, I love that the time goes by faster, I love feeling like I'm actually getting a little exercise while I'm working. It's fantastic, so much better than hostessing!

Anyway... today is classes, tomorow classes and work, Thursday classes, seeing Elisa, and a movie with Dustin. On Friday after classes Rich and I leave for Illinois and I am SO excited! I feel like I have been looking forward to this for SO long and I just know it's going to be a good weekend *big smile* Yay to that!

So time to finish getting ready. More soon!

About

I'm just a girl trying to find my place in the world. I don't claim to be perfect and I don't expect anyone in my life to try to be that way either. I try to keep only good, positive and trustworthy people around me. I've been burned in the past but right now I feel like things are pretty good. I'm in the middle of re-applying to school, I work full time at Caribou Coffee and in between I just want to have fun. I am only 23, after all, and I want to live it up. Like what you see? Feel free to read more.
