Coming Up Short?
For those of you who know me: This post isn’t about me being a shrimp =P.
Well, work’s been going nice recently. Besides a few broken plates today, it’s just been smooth sailing. I tell you…it’s hard to navigate in that kitchen…the trolleys JUST fit.
We had a meeting last week Wednesday, telling us that Reba has now taken a full-time position and is in charge of us. She tells us something, we do it. I think she’ll do a great job. She’s quite reasonable. They also pointed out some things that we should be doing a little better. Nothing too serious.
But, today while I was going about my usual rounds on the 2:30 – 3:30 shift of doing desserts, I discovered something new. Apparently, I’m not supposed to be doing them anymore. Instead, it’s the new dishwasher’s job. Ron. I can understand that, seeing as this and last week we were working on desserts together.
It’s nice that they tell me this…I wish they woulda told me at 2:30 so I coulda gone home earlier =P. I asked the managers-in-training about it. They didn’t know. I also asked Jan, a co-manager, and she also didn’t know. But she assured me that if Paul was the one to tell me this, it was true. And I trust Paul.
But what’s also strange is the fact that I had Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday off this week(previous), and that I don’t have any shifts on those days the coming week. I like to believe that they’re being considerate of the fact that I’m going off to France in a week, and are giving me the time to prepare. If so, I’ve gotta thank them ^^.
But, if I don’t have my regular shifts when I come back…I’m gonna wonder. I don’t want to have three days off like that. I’d rather work at least one of them. So…if my schedule is like that, I’ll just mention to them that I want either Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday as a work day.
And again, Ernesto didn’t show up for work today. I wonder what his story will be for today. lol. But we were good. We still had 4 people(the new guy, Chris, was training for lunch today. He’s actually really good. I gotta talk to him more.) We were still done by 2:30.
So…I’ll see if my schedule changes next week, and decide on what to do from there.
Thanks for readin ^^
