And I am DONE!!!!!!!!!!!

Yesterday was my last day at Applebee's which was exciting and I must say I am feeling relieved!! I start my new job on Monday and cannot wait to get started.
Here are some things I learned working as a server:

1. Tip generously because most people don't and it get frustrating 20% is a good start! Working for $3.43 and hour doesn't add up very fast.

2.Being rude and difficult to your server really doesn't accomplish anything.If anything it makes you look bad. If you don't like the restaurant or are a picky eater and you don't want to tip-eat at home!

3. Don't ignore your server when they are trying to talk to you. It is our job to see if everything is OK....don't get mad or annoyed! Again if you don't like it eat a home!

4. If you don't like the food tell your server right away don't eat it all and expct to get a free meal....

5. We know when people are coming in, trying to get free food......

6. It's Applebee's, you probably aren't going to get the world's finest dining! The menu has burgers and fries nothing too fancy Sorry!

7.Make sure if the server ask if you need anything else to say everything you need at one time. It is frustrating to keep running around for you, especially when there are 3 tables all doing it at the same time!

Ok that is it! I will remember this experience forever and I know I will never look at restaurants the same way again!

Black Friday!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Thanks to everyone for the thanksgiving cards and messages, I miss you a lot and hopefully will see you soon!

Dan and I had 2 friends over and we all cooked and ate together, it was a lot of fun! We still have a lot of left overs...We also watched Home Alone- I love that movie.

Today was an interesting day at work- the power went out so we could not serve the guests and had to close. The good news is I got to go home early, the bad news is no tips....I guess that is why it is called Black Friday!

Last weekend was Dan and my 2 year anniversary. We went out to eat and I got a Ipod Nano!
It is very small and I always think I am gong to break it but I like it.

I am so excited to start my new job, I went in last week and signed the acceptance letter and took a pee test. Now I just have to wait until Dec. 3rd to start!

Also I got some Christmas shopping done. I took some names off a tree at work that had foster kids names and what they wanted for Christmas on them. We have the presents ready and hopefully they will enjoy them!

Tonight we watched Rocky Balboa and it was good. I recommend it!

I think that is all that is new with me! I hope everyone had a great holiday!

Everything is coming up Milhouse!

It is official! I got a new job with Manley Deas and Kochalski! I will be working in the service department and I am very excited! I think I will be making about $30,000 a year- which is a huge step up! I am excited I will be done with Applebee's too!

I am still not sure what my plans are for Christmas once, I know I will let you all know!

This Saturday ( Nov. 17th) is Dan and my 2 year anniversary and w have a lot to celebrate! I hope everyone is doing fantastic!!!
