Somewhat Of A Daily Update

Friday

Another day another dollar is what people say. What I say is another day another long shift. Why? Because everyone loves to come and say hello to me on Friday's. As you guys know already I work at a restaurant as the head waiter. I am the only waiter during any to all of my shifts. Which means I take care of everybody. If anybody has a problem they let me know. If anybody needs more this or that I am your go to person.

I love my job, but let me tell you it can be tough especially on Friday's. Friday's we stay open longer and do extra side work and cleaning routines so I usually get home around 11 to 12. Not including getting a bite to eat and etc. to finally make it to bed.

At my job every day I have to clean all the tables, booths, seats, and chairs. Sweep the floors, clean the restrooms, take out the trash, clean the trays, wash the soy sauce bottles, wash the salt&pepper shakers, wipe the station counters, clean the ticket trays, and finally mop the floors.

On Friday's on top of what I already said we take all the booths out and give them a extra good scrubbing. Also we scrub the walls, sweep and mop in areas non available with the booths in the initial places.

It can be a hand full to get all that done and serve everyone who comes every night. Especially when it is packed. Friday's are the kind of nights that I clean one table and three more families come in to give a visual here.

I wouldn't say I dread Friday nights, but I can't say there always the best either. I absolutely love my job, the people I work with, the people who come in to enjoy a meal and I serving them to the best of my abilities. Making there time out of the day to come out here worth while.

I enjoy and take pride in knowing I have the opportunity to make people smile and just have a good time. I do my best to entertain and make sure everyone is happy just as I would hope others to do the same. Yes not everyone is amused with the way I do things, but like I said I want to make everyone I encounter happy.

It is rather hard to do so if it's busy since everyone and everything needs me and my utmost attention. For I am only human, but I have to be more than that. There is always something that can or will go wrong. For example the time I scared myself to the point to this day I have the markings to show how long I've been here.

I absolutely admire the people I work with. It is a family owned restaurant and I am there neighbor. I have always done my best to put my efforts to make this place as best as it can be. I could never thank them enough for gifting me the opportunity to work in such a lovely establishment. The work environment is great some of the people who come in sometimes not so much but just everything else always makes up for it for sure.

My apologies for rambling on for sometime. I tend to do that, sense I am quite the chatter box. Anyways I hope you enjoyed reading all this and just thank you all. I know I am not the best, but I can't thank you all enough for putting up with myself all this time.
