Way to be a team plater
I have five minutes before I'm technically supposed to be in bed and I still have not finished my glass of zin. Probably not gonna happen.

Work today was insane and I don't have the damndest clue as to why. It was absolutely dead during lunch and most of dinner, and then we got this pop from nowhere that lasted for a few hours. Given that yellow had already gone home, my partner and I wound up staying after red (the last cut section before closers go home) in order to do our sidework, yellow's sidework AGAIN (because we got tables in yellow section), and roll 100 silver apiece. Such is the woe of being in blue on a busy night.

I SAW TWO FIREWORKS ON THE WAY HOME. TWO. WHOO YEAH FOURTH OF JULY.

In other news, I've found out just why they're scheduling me so much. Evidently we rank servers based on an average of five criteria: PPA (how much we sell per person), GEM scores (how well we're scored on our online survey), Secret Shops (just what they sound like, probably getting phased out soon), Attitude (what it sounds like), and Reliability (what it- come on do I really need to say it). At the moment, I am tied for sixth place (technicall I'm in seventh because Amber Rose is before me alphabetically) out of thirty or forty servers. People with higher scores are obviously doing better and therefore get scheduled more.

I AM TOO GOOD AT MY JOB, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN. THIS IS WHY I NO LONGER HAVE FREE TIME. OR SLEEP.

Most of my tables tonight were pretty good, though, and I walked away with about $70 in tips on $500 in sales, which is a better percentage than I've been making lately. Also, I have tomorrow off. My goal is to get work done on DC shirts. |D

AND HERE'S THE BIGASS LIST OF STUFF TO DO BEFORE COMIC CON, BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE I NEED ONE FOR SOME REASON.

- Finish shirts
- EBA routine (cut song, finish choreo, practice, quit changing the choreo dammit it's fine the way it is)
- EBA costume (microphone, hat)
- Bad Horse Singer costume (everything but the vest, oi)
- Find out if any other Singers will be there. Possibly meet with them.
- Flonne costume (leotard, earrings, find out how long shipping takes)
- Schedule (find out what panels are there, figure out which ones to attend)
- Sleep, because that sure as hell won't happen at the con 8D

...Yeah this has gone on far too long. My zin is gone. It's bedtime.

...I really miss my paid account. Icooooooons where did you go?

HIGH FIVE TOO GOOD AT YOUR JOB BUDDY. I'm scheduled on all our busiest days, including holidays, because management has taken notice that I pack carts quickly and neatly. I've been called an asset to the store. I always have a line because I never have a line. I need to be worse at my job. :(

Please tell me they're paying you more, at least - and can't you ask for a break if it gets to be too much?

I get breaks. The managers decide when they are. In fact, when it's busy out and it is getting to be too much, they're less inclined to give me a break at all.

As for pay, uhhhh let's just leave that over here next to this lampshade

...Oh. Yes. Yes, I do get days off. But everyone gets days off. Right? Obviously not or you wouldn't be bringing it up. What manner of befuckery is that?

I took the road less traveled by and wound up in a ditch.
