Seed's currently feeling

Like a love without devotion, like a cloud without the rain; Like a heart without emotion, like a wound without the pain. Like a prayer without an answer, like a bird without a song; Like a hope without a future, like a night without the dawn. Without You, I am nothing; I am nothing without You; Only You can make something out of nothing; I am nothing without You. ~PAUL & RITA BALOCHE

Just Over Broke yesterday...2nd day on the J.O.B.

1st day serving tables. Did 3 on my own!

Got to keep $30.94 (american)

Surprised to see someone tipped X dollars, and 63 cents! ....I think I found the 4th penny somewhere actually.

I did betta than I expected.... everyone's treatin me nice. even the impatient customers!

THANX!

kinda scarey poping a cork for the 1st time...they had me do it at the cutomers' table!

took me what felt like a minute....started freakin out when the cork started to crack....paniced...started pulling & twisting it by hand...remembeing the dude said to pull it STRAIGHT out....

POP!

phew! didn't spill it or have a flying cork!

So why a J.O.B.? Why THIS J.O.B.??

well honestly...the main motivation for being a waiter is that it's the job I'm terrified of!

It's everything I've never wanted.

It's exactly what I'm not....everything that I need to be.

I mean...I aim to be the BEST waiter. not just to get by.

I assume the best...(or most pitiful or attractive) waiters get the best tips, but I aint in it for the $. (that's just a bonus)

What's the big attraction?

2 B the best waiter, ya gotta....
