Let Me Get Some Answers


My day was long and tiring, and I started to feel quite run down by the end of it. It seemed I was at work so long that the entire day was spent there, and it was time for bed right when I got home.

I don't really feel like writing in detail, I'm tired, and I have a headache, and I'm not in the mood. There are just some nights where it seems really difficult to write, and I can't force it, it just doesn't happen.

I worked from 8am to 6pm, ten hours, and did a lot of work. I made 91 cucumber ring salads, plated 91 fruit tarts and made around 160 vegetable bundles. I also did a bunch of other crap, like all the fruit for the cafe, for brunch, for late night events... it took awhile. Also tried my best to organize people, but it doesn't always work out.

Tomorrow is going to suck huge balls, and yes, that's a technical term. We have a really busy continental, around 90 people, and then we have a full brunch, which is like... 80 to 90 people, and then we have a somewhat early dinner (at 5:30pm) for around 75 people, it's Jill, myself and Mark in to handle all of brunch together, which mostly got done today, so maybe it won't be too bad? right? oh god..

To add to the stress of having that many people to feed, and the fact that it's split into three seperate parts of the day, but there are issues that I'm going to have to deal with tomorrow, that I wish I didn't have to. Mainly, the fact that we're out of some key produce, specifically cucumbers and mixed greens. We don't have either of those, and we need them for brunch service and the wedding, but I think that Jon has taken steps to fix that, so I'll try not to think about it (he just called me).

I'll probably be going to bed soon... I'm tired and I have a long day ahead of me tomorrow. I'm just watching Couple's Retreat while eating some snacks and trying my best to relax, but my headache is bothering me and I'm running out of the things to write.

I have a day off on Monday, and then a three hour shift on Tuesday, and a day off on Thursday, so next week is looking pretty decent. I'll try not to get my hopes up, but getting through tomorrow is a big step towards a bit of relaxation after a long and difficult weekend.
