Bittersweet now

Wow, I have just had one of the worst day's at work ever. It started out alright, got to Ciao! at 4:00, light resos, and the deck was open. The problems started when I took a to go order. The gentleman who placed the order wanted so many little things changed and added to the order that I couldn't figure out why he bothered to order things from the menu at all. I go put the order in, and the guy comes back 10 min. later and wants to change things again. So I take the new order and give it to Becky (manager for the night) so that she can make the changes to it and let the kitchen know. So once the order gets ready, Becky brings it out and says that it's good to go. After the guy pays and leaves, he comes back and says that the extra dressing and croutons he ordered aren't with the rest of the stuff. I talk to Becky and she tells me that they are in the bag, just in a separate container. So the guy leaves again, and calls back 5 min. later to say that the extra bread he ordered isn't there. So here I am, trying to seat people, calm this guy down, and explain this whole thing to Becky. When this guy comes in the second time, he demands that we toast the bread and give him a discount on his meal for all of the problems. I offer to go get Becky for him, but he says that he wants to deal with me. I not being able to give him a discount, try to explain the situation to him. Because I can't do anything in this situation without managerial approval, the guy stares to verbally abuse me. So while I'm trying to calm this guy down, other customers are coming in behind him and listening to him rant. Becky finally came out and calmed him down, but it had thrown off my entire evening. I had about 14 parties waiting to be sat, was behind on resos, and had other to-go orders to put in that had to wait until this guy was happy. It took me a half an hour to get back on track from this thing. Not that it was a busy night or anything, I just don't like being thrown off of my "game". Sometimes I just hate dealing with people.

On the up side, yoga on Tuesday was awesome! I'm sore as fuck, but it was soooooo worth it, and I feel really stretchy. For some reason, when I get done with yoga my butt looks good the whole rest of the day. I don't understand it, but I'm not gonna knock it. Also, my abs hurt really bad because instead of Buffy on Tuesday night, we watched Pablo Francisco and listened to some Dane Cook. I was laughing so hard at one point that I couldn't breathe. That was a sweet night. Went to Frickers later to hang out with the guys. While I was there I saw Bruce, Randy, and Joe Russell. Hadn't seen those guys for a while, so it was good to catch up for a bit.

Thinking about going out Thursday. Bootleggers would be fun, but I'm also up for downtown. On with the clubbing. They've started up the Hub Bounce again, so we can go back and forth between clubs if we want to . I kind of miss the poles at Eclipse........... but if we don't go this week we still have all summer to get down there.
