Kerouac
weird musical dildo
Sorry I haven't been around much... between gettin' hitched and taking on the garde manger station at the restaurant, I haven't had a lot of forum time, but that's going to change.
Because I quit my job.
Anyone that has ever worked in a kitchen knows that it's hard and often thankless work, and the kitchen is usually staffed Motley Crue-esque addicts with knives and access to fire. You get what you put in, and I put in a lot and have become a much, MUCH better cook because of it. Last week my executive chef physically threatened me during service, threw a pan at me, and didn't say a word to me the rest of the night. That was the last time I went in; I contacted HR, said I wasn't coming back, and that was that.
Coincidentally, this week I finally received the teaching offer I've been waiting on for almost a year now, and they want me to start in six weeks. I've got a couple of weeks off and have a few other ideas floating around; there are a few restaurants around town that would let me pick up a shift here or there for extra cash, and there is a local bakery that needs help only two days a week that I'd be interested in working for, if the hours don't conflict with teaching hours. I'm going to do a lot of recording at home, hopefully a good chunk of mixing too. Maybe I'll even be good about getting back out to the garage gym again!
See you guys soon!
