As you may have noticed, I am miserable at keeping this updated while I'm working. This may be attributed to the fact that, on average, I've been working fifty-five hours a week and when I'm not working I'm generally asleep or desperately trying to salvage my social life. Anway here are some anecdotes: Yesterday a penis walked into work.
Okay, truth be told, it wasn't yesterday because I haven't worked since Sunday, as I got my wisdom teeth pulled on Monday, but a penis did walk into work. I was serving in the back of caves, when I look up and I saw what at first seemed to be a guy wearing a bunch of trash bags. Upon closer look, I realized the trash bags were strategically placed and inflated to create a giant penis costume. And my only reaction to this? I thought, "This is a family restaurant." He went up into balconies and a few minutes later security went up there and I saw no more of the penis costume, so I believe they made him take it off.
Other than that, I've served two tables from KU in the past week. I did not, however, spit in their food, though I did accidently spill some taco salad all over one table, and both tipped me well. Other than that, Casa Bonita has just been ridiculously understaffed. We had two girls walk out in one night, another new trainee quit, and one more girl get fired, so by Sunday night we were six servers short, so it seemed like everyone was serving at least a section and a half.
This server shortage also resulted in Rob not giving me the days I needed off to get my wisdom teeth pulled, so I had to call, wait twenty minutes for Gianni to pick up the phone, before we had a twenty minute conversation about me not coming in. However, I think I still have a job on Friday.
Other than that, getting my wisdom teeth out hasn't been so bad. They swell some, so I do vaguely resemble a chipmunk, but the pain hasn't been too bad and I've watched a lot of movies and the West Wing.
