So, it's Monday


I work in a restaurant.  I serve tables.  I am aware that I am in a business where I have to deal with people.  Smart people, pretty people, ugly people, and even stupid people.   When I eat out & pay in cash, I do not want 72 cents back with my change.  I figure since I'm a normal person that perhaps others would feel the same way. When I'm at work I prefer not to run around with coins in every pocket.  Today a man (first, I thought it was a child with a speech impediment) called to order fries to go.  I asked him what type of fries he wanted and he said regular.  I tell him that the total will be $3.81.  When he arrives at my work he tells the first person that he sees that he wants french fries to go.  They put the order in.  Nowwe have to deal with canceling the extra order of fries.  I then have to tell him that when he calls to make a to-go order that we send the order right away.  He hands me a $5 and I give him back a dollar (rounding up the 81 cents).  He leaves the restaurant and drives past the window.  5 minuets later he returns to the restaurant and asks for his 19 cents.  Since I don't carry around change and I wasn't about to ask my manager to give me change for $1 in the middle of our lunch rush I hand him a $1.  He takes it & leaves.



On another note, I just finished my geography final.  I really felt good about this test.  When I chose my multiple choice I actually new that I had picked the right answer.  Is this the effects of studying?  Maybe I should do it more often...


Whenever I have a really good day I want to get organized.  Today I was at Aliso Creek at 7AM for this project I procrastinated.  I got that done, finished my chapter outlines for class, finished my atlas project, worked for 3 hours and made $$bank$$.  Now I have the urge to clean my bathroom, put away my clothes, start laundry, organize my desk & vacuum.  We just got this new vacuum with a ball in it.  I'll blog about that later.
