I was gone for 7 1/2 hours and only 2 new pages were posted
Come on guys we must be more talkative than that.
I had a horrible night at work. My boss is a PITA. He did not schedule enough bus staff and had me short 1 1/2 wait staff. I say 1 1/2 as I had a new waiter that has only worked 2 prior weeknight and he puts him on a short staffed Saturday night. I babysat all night. He even had the audacity to tell me that I was over seating him. He had a section with 6 tables and I never sat more than 3 tables at once.
I explained to him that it was my job to find tables for customers, not babysit the waitstaff that cleary had no place working on a Saturday night and that if he had trained him properly or staffed us properly I wouldn't have oversat him. I don't think I'll be getting a raise anytime soon, but give me a break
I am usually a very even tempered person and always stay calm even in stressful situations. My good friend that has worked there with me for 14 years even commented that he had never seen me get so worked up. At least tonight is over. I feel bad for the new guy as I rode his butt all night, do this, do that, pick up plates, etc. etc. etc. He must think that I'm a real HCTIB. Oh well.

I wonder if anyone else will be down there then?
for smoother nights at your job in the future.
I would consider pulling them for a couple of days, but I don't think I'd do a whole week again. I understand why people do it and certainly see nothing wrong with it, but I know my kids and it just wouldn't work for them.
I'm always so busy trying to keep up here that I've not read anything else in months. Interesting Gator thread on the resort forum.
I love our pets so much, but I am at wits end. The older dog often Poops inside as I don't think he even knows he is doing it now. Sometimes he does it while he is laying down. I am constantly cleaning the rug. The female now requires pretisone and antibiotics for he immuno dificiency disease (probably for the rest of her life) and the meds make her have to pee and it isn't always outside. She also has a really purple, blood tinged tongue which I am assuming is from the meds so when she licks her face all the time she has blood tinged fur which makes her look mangy. The cat goes through his stressful times and marks everything. I love them, but don't know when I will have to draw the line. My oldest son came to me last night and told me that he thinks it is time to have his dog Tuffy, the older one, put down. He said "Mommy he can't stand up good and almost can't walk" Nick has been his biggest advocate. He cried himself to sleep last night. I just keep praying he goes on his own. I don't want to have to play God. Each time I buy his meds I think well, I'll give him one more month. What to do, What to do?
for you and the kids - my cats are my babies and I know I'd be devastated if anything happened to them.
