Sittin' Pretty
posted Sunday, February 29, 2004

So are all the previous comments hinting I should post no more bugs? As for the job hunt i did have a trial period at a nightclub on Sunday. I heard that it was going to be 2 hours of working for free then they'd make up their mind. I walked in the door and joined 9 others waiting for direction. Including me, 3 were going to work the bar. 3 others were waitresses and 4 were 'glassies'. Found out that means bus boys. Thing is I've never been behind a bar ever. The club was empty at 9pm, so I could picture them making us serve invisible patrons. After the brief confusion of basic training of behind the bar instruments, drinkers began to roll in. The man in charge left us alone at our own work stations so we could impress and sparkle. I think I did pretty well. I didn't screw up, even though there were about 50 buttons on the cash. Mostly 3 letter abbreviations. Not knowing every drink made things difficult, understanding each persons accents is a skill I'll have to learn. My hour was up, he said he'd call in a few days. If this doesn't work out I can always pick fruit for a last resort. Having to spend time in a town that only has a beach for entertainment doesn't bring many fancy stories. But I do try to explore as far as my feet take me. This is what I could come up with.

Hey, the little lizard thing is a Skink. Pet stores over here charge around $300 for them, but something tells me they are not worth that while they're over there. The beast shots are awesome, hope you get the job at the bar, that'd be a good time!
