Respect...

I feel somewhat saddened tonight, coming home from work.  The customers were fine, but the staff on the other hand were ridiculous! The evening ending with a massive argument between the new waiter who has only worked like three shifts, and the chef who has been there for years and who we all greatly respect.  It seems our new waiter does not understand this concept.  As a result of his not working very hard, the chef told him to pull his socks up and do some work, twice,  the waiter did not take kindly to this.  He started back chatting and being rude to the chef.  I was very annoyed at this as he is fantastic and deserves the respect that everyone else has for him.  I just don't understand how you can speak to someone like that after being in a job such a short time.  It made me angry and sad t see someone I have so much respect for, and that works so hard, being disrespected and generally spoken to in such a ad way.  Luckily the chef rose above it, hopefully the storm will have settled by the time I get there tomorrow.

TMNT

Next Thursday night there is a fancy dress party I'm going to, for which you have to dress up as something beginning with the letter 'T' for.  I decided that the only option was a teenage mutant ninga turtle, Donatello of course!  So today I went shopping to Primark and bought the majority of my costume, it's so much more fun to make them yourself.  I got a green jumper, green shoes, bright orange tights, a brown belt and a long yellow foam tube as my 'bo staff'.  I added to this some denim shorts which I already have and some purple material to wear as the bandanna and  wrist/leg decoration, the only issue remaining was the shell!  Last night when I was at work I was discussing this with one of the chefs, and he suggested big bubble wrap, so the barman is hopefully getting me some today, so I can paint it green/brown as the shell. I will have to post photos cos I love my costume so much, yay can't wait, and we're going out in town afterwards in fancy dress which will be hilarious!!!

MAC!!!!!

So...the first blog I have created with mac, today has been like one of the most awesome days ever!!!  I got my my mac book pro (hence the name mac), I am so excited because I have saved up for it myself, and got what I wanted.  we went to the apple store in Meadowhall, Sheffield, which was amazing to start with.  We had an appointment with a personal shopper called Andrew who showed us everything we wanted an suggested things that I should and shouldn't get.  He was really god, and I get student discount which is really cool because it makes the apple care so cheap.  We didn't get home until about five, so I just had time to unpack the laptop and put it on to charge before I had to get ready for work and leave.  When I got in though I loaded some software and tried to figure things out, as it was fully charged. It is so pretty and amazing, and I can get Internet anywhere in the house, which is a new thing for me, and very cool.   I'm sure there will be many adventures of mac and I to follow...

Sunday Morning

Well...this is the first sunday, I think since I got back from America that I have not had to go to work. I have chosen to work sunday evening instead of lunchtime, which means that I get to have a very nice lie-in. I havn't done that since America either I think. I am being so lazy!!! It's so nice, everything is normally so hectic!!! I am working at 5, but i'm on my own, so at least I know what i'm doing. Yay for the weekend.
