Day off!!

Well everyone, it has been a while. And that worries me, because I do want to keep this as a record for me as well as an entertaining read for you guys at work. I don't think I've put anything of value in this blog for a few days. Possibly many.

Well, work, as has been mentioned, has been crazy and insane. We opened this week, which was kind of cool. The opening party was crazy and busy. My customers kept sneaking me drinks to get me through the night, and one of them fixed my hair for me, which was a little odd I must say. Then my friend Nikki got into a fight with one of the people, culminating in her telling the woman to "meet her outside" and the woman throwing a glass at the wall and running out the front door. Nikki cut her hand on the glass and got very drunk. Then I told my future manager that he looked like the kid from Stuart Little. This was before realising he was my future manager. Oops.

Before that we had the dry runs, which is where people come in and get a free meal while we get to practice. And that was hell on earth. 400 people all at once, rushing through demanding food. Terrible! I barely survived. Twelve hour shifts, no breaks, on your feet running up and down stairs all the time..... nightmare. None of my customers were getting their food, and the people behind the bar were morons.... seriously, how hard is it to pull a pint? (It's not hard- I wound up doing all my own).

Now that we are open, I am hoping things will calm down a bit and go back to normal. Friday was ok. I got loads of tips :) I nearly doubled my pay with tips. Lovely.

I had Saturday off and then slept for most of it. Sunday I had to work which was dead, dead, dead, but I did make it to church in the evening so I was happy. And I think that's everything that happened.

Oh, one more thing. I got my ear pierced :) Awesome. Went and got it done with Rachel and Janet when they were here. But mum and dad have only just found out, so it's now safe to tell the world. So yes. I am now one of the unwashed, pierced miscreants of London. Except that I am washed. And I'm not really a miscreant. But you know what I mean!

Laters......
