Something that baffles me

People who go out to resturants just to make their servers life hell. I can see where it can be a control thing, but for the most part it makes me sad that these people are so pathetic that they literally kick a man while their down. I mean being a bastard to your server is just cruel especially when they are nice and can't really retaliate then. Im fortunate in the fact that I can retaliate wth wit and then removal of alcoholic beverages from their table. I've done it before and I will do it again. I have only had one table make me so angry that I couldn't think straight or even wait on them anymore. This table will surely die a thousands deaths in the depths of their hell. People feel that they don't owe me anything, well technically you don't but if don't tip then there is really no motivation for me to take care of you.

I had the opportunity to finally do what I've wanted to do for a long time yesterday. I recognized a poor tipper and gave him the kind of service he tipped for the last time he had been in. The tip was $1 on $19, so I was slow to greet him and slow to get his drink, weirdly enough the kitchen even lost his ticket. Honest, I had nothing to do with that one, it was a total fluke of nature. Meanwhile he watched as I gave a couple of my regulars stellar service, even better than he got last time. As I drop the tip he asks me if I have time for a question. To which I say sure. He asks, why was the service so bad this time?” I replied with, “Well I've gotten tired of working hard for nothing tips like the one I recieved last time. I only make $2.13 an hour and I will focus on those tables who are more likely to give me great tips. ” He pondered this for a moment, the asked, “Why did you take care of those women better than me? Is it because they have tits?” I stepped back appalled by his crassness when one of my girls looks him straight in the eye and says, “It's because we tip him well and just enjoy him waiting on us. Not that a small dicked bastard like you would know.” Her friend joined her glare for a moment before they went back to their meal. He stputtered for a moment then signed his credit card slip and ran out of there like a demon was following him. I had to laugh the whole time he was leaving. I went to my table and gave them a hug then got their appetizer comped. The next time they come in for drinks after work their first round is on me. Tip well and make me laugh I will be your best friend. Don't tip or give me grief? You'll be one thirsty and angry mofo as I skip over you, numerous times.

I am a silent avenger of those servers who are not in a position to retaliate to a schmuck who thinks they are “always right”. You are until I prove you wrong. Muha! In another post I will tell you about the guy who got a pitcher of water dumped over his head by me. Right now though a baby needs to be fed.

Needless to say she grabbed my buttocks and I giggled

Serious that used to be common place at home, alright it still is, but I just wish for once my so-workers would grab my butt and not just spank it. And with that said I think we should move on. I would like to announce now that FFX is tha devil! Why, you may ask. Well I'll tell ya. It has made me sleep deprived and made me spend about $35 on rental costs and cost for the game. Alright it does rock and I love it but the fact that I don't sleep anymore and try to sneak any time in possible like a coke addict looks for any bathroom stall to get his fix in is just horrid. It hasn't been that bad but H starts school next week so I hope to have my habit curbed and settled. Just naps and 2 hours a night. I think thats feasible. This 6-7 hours in a sitting is getting outta hand. Although I have gotten pretty far I think, gads now I sound like an addict. Soon I'll start wearing all black, putting on pastey make up, not showering and going to my local Game Stop and asking the clerks about the newest games out on PS2 and how this game sucked because the graphics weren't smooth enough and the boobs didn't have enough jiggily factor. Oh yeah the supposed cheat for DOA2: Hardcore, more jiggily boobs, doesn't work. Ask my wife we were dirty old people for a bit to see if it actually worked.

I've decided I feel lonely in the area of dramam in my journal so I sat and thought and tried to think of something worth getting all dramatic about. Then I found it! is not a child lover by any means, and I constantly yammer on about my beautiful child. Now if through some insidious means I could offend her childfree sensibilities, BAM! Instant Drama. However, I don't think I could do that because she's a tech and deals with enough crap on a daily basis. Second, she brings up valid points, they are messy and not quite sanitary, and they are money sucking machines. And lastly, she's never jumped into my journal and criticized me for having a child or tried to bash my child in anyway shay or form. So in that spirit I shall look for another way to crate drama and tell her that Im very happy she's quiting her soul sucking job. Good luck in your job hunt! *salutes *

Things are starting to look up in the world and the words new car are being uttered in our household more and more often. Its a great feeling, knowing that we may have transportation again. I just want it more for the independence. If Alb had a decent public transpo service I wouldn't mind that much, but this city is layed ou so you need a car to be able to do almost anything, especially after 6PM when all the busses stop running. It's coming and Im excited.

Family life has gotten better as I try and come up with these grand schemes. Right now Im still working on the whole part time job thing but we need child care. I can up with a fix, but Im not sure how feasible it is. Pay my mother for child care, so she doesn't need to find a job and can still babysit our cute child. The only problem is almost all my wages from my part time job would go directly to that. Though I figure even if I have a spare $60 a week from a pt job that's $240 a month. This job could be something easy and hopefully without customer contact, you know stressless. this could be our car payment until we pay it off next sem. That's another bright idea just get a high interest loan and make the four payments until we get H's monies for school next sem and pay it off then. It sounds good and would allow us to get a bit newer and more loaded car. Both of which would be spiffy and kewl. I just need a car to get this ball rolling, that and child care for the daylight hours. It all seems like a lot but a little bit at a time will make it easy, just like sex, ya?

Last and not least, I finally got a domain name!

Got Rave?!?
Developement has slowed down as of late since I haven't gotten all my email addresses set up and gotten my old site converted. I do however have a guestbook, message board and my first rave related page up! YaY! since my new addiction has fallen into my life Im probably going to have a long hiatus on the site additions, but ya know that's how it works right?

When things look up they might be going down

At least that's what I used to think, but lately there seemes to be an ever brightening light at the end of my proverbial tunnel. We are starting to look at cars and we are even considering trying to get one of those high interest rates to get a bit newer car. Just because we would be able to pay it off in January when Heather gets her money again. Im still weighing my options on picking up a part time job this sem while I wait to see if I can get any money for next sem. I really wanna head back to school, and get a real 9 - 5 job. Or at least a bit more stable one with a lil ass kissing.

I hit melt down yesterday when I got to work, I had a section I didn't want, but that was no big deal, what made it worse was the fact that a table t hat I hate was sitting there waiting for me to wait on them. I just lost it because I am a slave to my job and feel trapped right now. I could go get another job, but none would match the money I make waitin tables and we need everything I can pull in right now. Not only that the management likes me so they let me slide on a lot of stuff when it comes to my family. But other than my grumpy attitude for a half hour I think the night was a bit better. Well maybe, there is this table of regulars who tips like crap and they run your ass off. Well they sat in my section, the first part that annoyed me was the fact that they sat on the patio. It was windy and cool out there so I knew they would be running inside. Well they did so I had to bus two tables and search for them inside all for $5 on $43. YaY! GO DIE! Then my last table who was one of my first gave me $15 on $154, ohhhhhhhhhhh thank you, you too must DIE NOW! Gads what is with people if you are so tight with your money why are you even going out. Im suprised I don't hear tha cries of that's so expensive from these cheapskates. I know I did with the my four top that did 154 bones worth of damage. Yeah that's right that was a $9 margarita you were drinking. You pay for quality. I don't care if you can't taste the tequila, you really shouldn't if its a good one anyways. Shut up before I cut you off. Yeah I threatened to cut them off near the end. They invited me to come out and drink with them when I got off. I said sure, then they gave me no money. No thanks, not only that the band we had was too loud, so I hung out in back until the band was done. Luckly the cheap kids were gone. I didn't want to inflict them on any of my coworkers anyway.

Yeah other than 1 bad day life is looking up. Ri is mobile like a mug, tension is slowly easing out of our household and best of all I might actually get monies for school next sem. I can finally claim Ri as a dependant! I don't have to give her up to H this year ;P

Laundry and sproglings that refuse to sleep

For some reason Ri refuses to sleep, and I can't seem to get to sleep so Im going to kill a bit of time before my last load of laundry gets put in the dryer and I attempt to lay the Rilinator down for her evening siesta. The night passed with lil incident, although I just want to take some people out and shoot them. Maybe Im just losing my patience or something but Im just tired of dealing with most people out there in the world. It seems as if we've lost all sense of personal responsibility as well as common courtesy. This customer is always right business is just outta hand. Yes you are right, until you are an ass, infringe upon my rights, or even irk just irk me. Then I will go out of my way to get rid of you. On that note I did what many people at our resturant deemed impossible. There is this couple that comes in for Open Mic night at my work. They sing bad renditions of country songs and horrible covers of other genres. Now I don't normally say people suck but I have a few grips about them.
1) Woman on maracas, jsut shake em don't try interpretive dance at the same time.
2) Do not think you are more talented tan you are and demand to know why our music coordinator hasn't contacted you. (You've been playiing for a month and a half get a clue)
3) I do not enjoy refilling your waters 15 kabillion times and getting no tip
4) I do not enjoy the fact that the back up singer thinks she's the lead
5) I do not enjoy the fact that your sets last for 30-45 mins, it's farkin open mic night, give others a chance! (This is after a good 10 mins of seup time.
6) He hasn't called you get a CLUE! He might consider it if you actually buy something from us.
They've been in once a week for a month and half at least and all they've bought is 1 slice of Key Lime pie. Yeah you're not worth my time. Tonight I managed to get them out the door only one act after they finished, normally they try and stayy all night. I am the master!

Well the whole fiasco of having a place to live has passed. Thanx to my kick ass wife it's all cleared up and we have til she gets her school monies to pay for rent since it will still be on time at that time. Meanwhile I will scrimp and save so we can hopefully buy a new car with the remaining monies. We shall see but it would be kewl. I need shoes but I think those can wait if it means I can get a car. Life in this city without a car sucks. I would like to see a better public transit system, but that can't happen without money. Money doesn't get to them without passengers, but they don't have passengers because they have a horrible public transit system. Catch-22 sucks me arse lemme tell ya. Oh well car ward ho! hopefully.

I never realized how expensive it was to feed us until we ran out of everything known to mankind the other day. Luckly we are making more varied dishes so we are getting more ingredients in our larder, but it still seems like we can't make the occasional decadent meal. She wants a dinner party, I wouldn't mind…though that would mean I have to cook. I might be able to handle that. I think it might be time to experiment with tuna steaks. Life goes on and it will get better, I like happy endings.

ARGH! Can't I catch a fucking break?!?

So I called our paartment office to verify that we did not have to worry about rent for this coming August. She affirms, then I ask to renew our lease for another year. This is where it gets a bit dicey. She says fine then says rent is due on the 1st. Pardon?!? I thought we got the last month of our lease for free, yes but the stipulation blah blah blah blah. Essentially we had to pay our rent a month in advanced to get this place, no big deal, though Im wondering is renewing your lease really renewing your lease? I've always thought you start brand spanking new with your new lease contract. I never thought as they are saying here that it's the same rental contract, just extented. Anyways I have a total of like $200 in my hands for rent that is due in 3 days. I would opt for month to month or even just paying for a half prorate so I can find a new place to live, but all of this would require money we don't have. Because by the agents definition we have to pay by the 3rd for what ever we decide. I think I might get my 30 day notice ready just in case. That will just take a whole bunch of time and patience I don't have. So now we have no car, we potentially have no place to live and we need to find our new place on a major bus route, yet close enough so I can continue to bike to work. I just don't get it, Im stressed, and just can't seem to catch a fucking break!
