As a busser in a restaurant essentially what I do is clean up other peoples messes however in general it is the servers who have to deal with the real garbage. The gratuity system puts restaurant employees in an even greater position of servitude then most service jobs.

If someone out there thinks they can get me employed by the company they work for I could really use a job. I don't need very many hours but most anything would do.

My step dad finished his dissertation and completed his defense!

He is now Dr. David M. Krayesky!

If you see him you should congratulate him.

I admit I have found myself in the slumps on and off but that is normal, several of my friends seem really screwed up recently. I hope things get better and I am ( Read more... )
