Final day of training/ Third day of class

So today was all around good mostly because just everything seemed to fall into place. I usually give a summary of something cool or interesting that happened to me that day except nothing to over interesting happened. I think I'll be just fine I just have to get used to using the POS where the orders are placed. No joke that machine makes me nervous because there is so many buttons to press and know how to work and its just so overwhelming luckily I'm still new so I only get 3 tables.

So the final day of training wasn't so bad Brian wasn't sitting at his usual table and then. Someone called me over it was Brian he was sitting at a new spot but a man was with him. I perked up because Brian was a pretty old man and reminded me of my own Hooters version of Margot haha I'm sure she'll ask me about that once I come in tomorrow. He introduced me to the older gentleman sitting with him it was the father in law and they were eating together something to do with there kids I'm not sure I don't keep track of customers lives. I took the bar test and passed I took menu test and not sure if I passed I hope I did. I start work this Sunday hopefully Saturday because I want to get paid as soon as possible haha.

Second Training Day/ Second Day of Summer Class

All around my day was pretty good with a side of average. Nothing to interesting happened except that I slowly realized how many connections and benefits to being a Hooters Girl there is. Such as some customers are millionaires or some know people that are well known voice coaches. I was off the clock talking to a customer about what he did not that I cared but its part of the job I suppose. Then he got to talking about music of course I realized he was somewhat of an amateur when he couldn't properly identify his own pitch and not his range. Any how he told me how his friend is looking for students for voice coaching and I needed one anyway so yay! Secondly I did something apparently funny in class during lecture he was talking about naming Biotic and Abiotic things I had already heard this yesterday but kept my mouth shut thinking in my head wolf and rock and was exhaling but it came out as a raspberry so they thought I was directing that towards what the professor was talking about and he thought it was funny.

The second day I realized that some of the regualars like Brian, Greg, and Shadow (Greg's Dog) are pretty awesome seeing that dog made me calm down for most of the morning because it wasn't totally human populated. I think thats why I get nervous going places that are completely boxed in with bunches of people. I've become so accustomed to only seeing 4 humans at my 1st job that if I saw more they were there to pick up their dog(s). Shadow is a Corgi/ Cattle Dog mix it isn't to bad to look at in fact its kind of cute. However do not misunderstand me I am not saying we should make more of this mix. Its more of a happy accident that just so happened to not look like an abomination upon canines :) I met some new girls today and so far I have been told by the customers I'm doing a good job as a trainee. I also realized that I'm in trouble again I need to do something task orientated I always need something to do or I will go nuts! For instance I was studying my bar guide when I noticed there were four dirty tables that weren't getting cleared off in what to me felt like 10 mins. So I started fidgeting thinking why isn't anyone taking care of this its bad representation of Hooters so I got up and marched over to all four tables and cleared them off in the quickest way I think anyone has ever seen. I say quick because it was record time I did it in 5min or less. I then run into Kate who's table I had cleared she then said "Oh wow thanks" I didn't stay long enough to hold a convo I simply said no problem. I ran into Jeff who saw me doing it all and said " I can't not do something there has got to be something I can do I need to be put to a task so your gonna love me when I start my shift" he simply laughed and continued folding the shirts.

Oh lastly before I get off and study for my last two tests. Today in Biology my professor did something funny that made me and a couple classmates laugh he chose Cannibus Sativa as another scientific term of course as soon as I saw it I knew immediately what it was so did the guy sitting next to me and the girl in front and he simply states "Marijuana" all three of us start giggling because thats how you know who smokes Hahaha. I thought it was odd out of all the other scientific formulas he could have used he chose weed. I can see he used to smoke or still does haha.

First Training Day/ First Day of Summer Class

So before I tell you guys all the interesting and wondrous things that happened today. I can just say two things occurred to me about how this week will play out. First off I don't think I'll be able to train this week being as I have training all week and I start my first shift this weekend so I won't have time to train in the morning. Its a good thing its only this week or else ha ha I wouldn't be able to work at all. Secondly I don't think anyone at Applewoods has seen me so furious before in my life I pretty much bit my friends head off for his lack of competence. I honestly had no intention of screaming bloody murder over the phone ha ha. I already had a bad start because my parents though they could pull a very unintelligent move this morning so that made me irritated then having my ride be late on my first day of training made me even more angry so I just went off roaring with flames leaking from my non existent snout.

So now that's settled my first day of work went by starting out kind of jittery and nervous. I don't just start making random conversations with people and to hold that conversation pretending to care. I also had no real idea what I was doing so it was just oh my gawd oh my gawd I don't know what I'm doing. Then eventually I caught on how to work there pretty quickly. Honestly if all I had to do was bring them there drinks and food and pay the check with occasional conversation then I would be perfect.....sadly however thats not the case we have to engage with the customer and eventually develop regulars. I'll of course have to treat it like I do with most people I am forced to talk to. Pretend to have interest in what they have to say and care about what goes on in their life. Honestly I could care less I'm here to serve you food not be your home away from home although I think thats how it works being a Hooters Girl I mean. My trainer Sara is really nice and the girls I met today are nice as well I like them however I question there common sense intellect. All together I learned pretty fast how things work around there. I think I'll be okay if I just do what Jeff (general manage)told me "Who ever you are outside this building gets left behind once you walk through that door"

Finally my first day of class at PGCC it started out pretty well I ran into my friend Amaedi and Margot if your reading this then haha no I didn't ask what she is doing major wise I forgot. We chatted before our classes started. My professor for the day (she was a temp) made me love how I finally realized how smart I was because some of the questions she asked I already knew and when I answered them she gave me a look of shush I don't want you to answer it that way. Also I've already been labeled as a hypocrite future vet. It all started with me giving an honest logical answer with no emotions attached. She asked what would happen to the squirrel if you cut down the tree it lived in now keep in mind she said one tree just one. Not two not a hundred but one so I said very honestly and bluntly "Ummm the squirrel will look for another tree" I suppose the way I answered it should have been more sensitive concerning myself with this squirrel's personal problems. It slowly occurred to my professor that I didn't particularly care for squirrels I didn't tell her the back story. All I said was that they were jerks and they started it first! Then it pretty much was a short battle of the smarts I however decided to back out from time to time so I don't seem like a total bitch. I say this because my original debate was with an older woman I had a counter answer to everything she said. This I've come to learn pisses a lot of people off...sucks for them ha ha. Thats all for today ciao!
