Today was my second day training at this Red Lobster. I spent pretty much all morning and afternoon at the restaurant, basically crash-coursing everything so I can get on the floor as soon as possible. Apparently, the manager who hired me heard my table approach and bragged about it to everyone she could see. That makes me happy ( Read more... )

I am all done cleaning the house and done with work for the day already, and it's only 2 PM! I am just waiting for the one load of laundry to finish and I have the rest of the day to myself. How exciting! I even managed to clean the restroom and kitchen today, as well as vacuum the house. Go me! Even better, Jamie is in a REALLY good mood ( Read more... )

They actually turned out quite good....this is the first time I have pan-seared chicken, so it was a little tough since I overcooked it some. Still, the flavor from the sauce was excellent and the chicken ( Read more... )

OMFG Leonardo rocks!!!

"Idina...listen to me. We can still be friends. Just say you're sorry...and hand over that Tony to me."

I had a miserable day at work today and can't stop thinking about it, making it extremely difficult for me to sleep. So, I am making this post in order to vent...so if you don't want to hear someone griping angrily about work, skip it. There is a very brief recap of it at the end, if you want to get the gist of it ( Read more... )
