I think that's the weekend of our big Member-Member golf tournament at the country club, so if I'm still working there I can't make it. ...But the way things are going I probably won't be working there much longer

As the summer goes on (technically, gets closer), the more it looks like I'm about to quit my job. Gotta love it when I get chewed out twice in one day for shit that I had nothing to do with, because "I've been there long enough I should have known better".
Don't hire someone who is technically my Boss, not really train him, then expect me to go out of my way to correct his mistakes when he's being a total douche. I'm trying to get the fucker fired so I can hopefully move up (and get paid more). Instead they're trying to get me to train the other new cooks, all the while giving me more cooking to do (I'm now the main banquet cook AND Lead Grill Cook), but I ain't seen no more money on my paycheck. Except for those Overtime Hours I'm racking up because I'm scheduled for at least 45 hours a week (usually closer to 60). Then they chew me out for getting Overtime!
If I wasn't fucking half our servers (including a former Miss Teen Pennsylvania/ current Miss Teen USA contestant), I'd have already quit. But you know, I'm a sucker for a hot girl. And I got seven of them. Well, six now. We just fired one of the dumb bitches. And they're hiring more guys lately. Probably so I won't be fucking the whole server staff.

...The point of that last post was to say I'm hoping I can make that. Sorry, I'm drunk on Bourbon as we speak (type...). And tonight was just another night full of bullshit at work. So you guys get to hear me bitch about it.
I'll put in for the time off tomorrow.

Hot enough to win Miss Teen Virginia - World division too.
Still no word from work about if I have off or not. Those fuckers like to wait until a few days before to tell you. Really pisses me off when I have to pre-register for stuff like this.

Woo-Hoo!! What a festival! Some new brewers among the 30 or so. Sam Adams was there, though, so I voiced my complaint. They are not from the South and they are no micro-brew. In fact, now that the foreigners have taken over Bud, Miller and Coors, Sam Adams is the largest American-owned brewer. But, that's just nit-pickin'. Beer was great. Music was fantastic. Los Lobos kicked ass. Weather was perfect. Sunshine and plenty of breeze. Best of all......I finished on my feet. No drinking half-gallon of amped up beer from a boot. No "accidents" in the back of a cab. On my best behavior (more or less) ;D Next year y'all come! G

Ya'll know of my distaste of most beers. I'll drink it..but most beer I can't stand the taste.. is why i stick to the hard stuff...
but there are a few here and there that I've found I like. Recently.. that last 2 I tried, I liked were both from Sam Adams. SA Light so far, has been my favorite.
