And with one click, we get Page 9. Ta-Da! CB - That’s not your real name on the photo site, is it? FCM - now that you have the frontloaders, it’s time to upgrade your ironing. 😃 We’ve got a steam-generator Rowenta that was painfully expensive, but worth every nickel. Maybe more tomorrow about how I got medieval on the patio again and the entire trellis/pergola is gone. Looks far better without it, and worth all the cuts and scrapes and bruises from when I went ass-over-teakettle. (Actually ass-over-sawzall, narrowly missing being stabbed by a 12-inch long blade.) ---

Seems to have been a day for injuries! (Well, mine was actually Saturday evening…) Yes, I can bend the toe, as long as I practice The Nasty Vocabulary as I’m doing it. I’m walking rather funny; I suppose I will be for days. **gotti** – hope you’re alright. **donkey** – call him! It ain’t gonna happen unless and until someone makes a move. ---

Reason number 1344342 why I hate working at waffle house is the damn expendability of employees. There’s nothing to dissuade people from just walking out when they don’t like the work. Guess what happened tonight? Myself, one other waitron, and a cook. House is completely packed, not an empty seat. Evenly distributed because each of us has one side of the dining room. Other Waitron: “I’ll see you guys later.” Me: "If you’re serious, then goodbye. OW: “Yes, I’m serious.” Me: “Alright, talk to you later.” I’ve lived through enough walkouts to not have been fazed by the fact that she was walking out, but given that it was my 3rd night out on the floor, I was more than flustered with the amoung of work. Thankfully, the manager was up there within a half hour to help me get caught up. That, and college kids and seniors need to learn to tip. I walk in the door and get greeted by a busload of seniors that I get to wait on myself, and I get left, literally 75 cents by 2 people, and 41 by another.
