So Much For That

In my last post, I made the statement that I would blog more than once every three months. I also said something about no one sticking to their new years resolution. It has been three months and twelve days since my last post, so one of my statements was true and one was false.

I am still making minimum wage at the Watergrill and I am still working in the Oyster Bar station. I am still working toward getting promoted to the Salad and Cold Appetizer station, known as Garde Manger. I am also trying to become an Eagle Scout which involves a lot of tedious group involvement, a hard thing to manage with a 3p.m.-11p.m. work schedule. But I will manage.

The Watergrill is just starting to mellow out from the early-year rush of business. We served an unbelievable amount of people during the beginning of 2010, but we outdid our New Years Day numbers by serving more than 300 people on Valentine's Day. Nearly everyone who works at the Watergrill was there on the 14th, preparing for the onslaught of customers we were going to get slammed with. It was hard work, but it was all very exciting too so I didn't mind.

In the long run, things are still looking good. I'm still mapping out my future and the steps it will take to carry me there.

All is well. It kinda makes me worried.

Until next time,
