So as I said once before I have started school, and I am so happy! I can't believe it. I never thought that I would be able to go back, and it wasn't in my plans, but it has happened and I couldn't be any happier.
Today I did my first homework assignment it was a motivation poster. I had so much fun doing it, it's been a while since I've had homework, but it was really fun! I shouldn't have tried to do it on the floor though with the little one crawling around, before I new it he had double sided tape in his hair! LOL :) it was pretty funny though! I think I did a good job and will hopefully get a good grade on it, for ya'll wondering what my motivation is well here it is: 1. My son, 2. My family, 3. To get a career , not just a job, 4. My family, and 5. MAKE MORE MONEY! So there you have it, that is what my motivation will be and what will keep me going.
Alright on to another subject, work. I absoutley love my job don't get me wrong, but some of the guest we have I swear they come in there just to complain, last night I worked in the bar, waiting the tables that we have in the bar area, and a couple came in at 9:45 (we close at 10), the lady ordered a magarita and her husband ordered a Tecate, well they then asked me what time we closed I told them and they said oh well I guess we better get to looking at the menu to see what we are going to eat so please give us a couple of minutes, which a couple of minutes to these people is like 5-10, so around 9:50 they order their food, a beef chimichanga and 3 tacos with rice and beans, the chimichaga takes a while to cook because we have to fry it, so anyways I go back out to their table around 9:55, (note this is 5 mins before we close) and tell them that I have to give them last call, they totally freak out on me, which now after talking to my boss about I understand, but last night I thought it was totally out of line the way that they took it, we always do last call 5 mins before we close so I thought hey it wouldn't be a problem with them right? I was totally wrong, they were taking it as if I wanted them to get out, like I was rushing them or something, that was totally not my intention at all, which come to figure out, they were just really pissed off that they hadn't gotten their food yet, and I was already giving them last call, which my boss explained it to me this way, how would you feel if someone gave you last call and you hadn't gotten your food yet, I told him that I would probably get mad, but I totally wouldn't have reacted the way they did, but they do have a right to get a little pissed off, not the piss off where you don't even want your food anymore and don't even finish your drink, just give me a tab and not leave you a tip pissed off, but that's what happened, so I guess I won't ever give last call anymore!!!
Oh and I might be trainning to become bartender, everyone says that I would probably make better tips then the guys that are bartender's up there, and I believe that one of them is probably going to be leaving pretty soon, so this is my oppurtunity to make better money if you ask me, so I'm going to talk to Antonio about it on Monday, and see what he says, I have metioned it to him before, but he just said wait to see what Chris ( the bartender that might be leaving) is going to do. So will see, wish me luck.
Well it's getting late so I'm gonna go to bed
Good Night!

Wow...what jerks! I don't really care what the issue is, last call is last call and they shouldn't have come in 15 minutes before close anyway! And, to not leave you a tip?! Talk about shooting the messenger! LAME...it's okay though..."Server karma" will come back to bite them in the ass!
