Was hectic, but not too bad. My manager let me leave a bit early, which was very much appreciated.
Sunday lunch and I’m done.
It’s very nice not having to do that job anymore, because if you’ve never done that kind of work, let me tell you it ain’t easy, even if the general idea is simple: clean, set, bring bread, take care of simple tasks around the place.
Restaurant work is not fun, and I do feel bad for people who need to rely on it to sustain themselves and family. It’s nice that for me it was a summer job to make tuition/spending money, one I could leave and still live the life I do. I know how lucky I am to have the life I have, I’m extremely grateful, and o hope to make the best of it, to give back and make things better for others because of how priveleged I am.
It was a great learning experience, but one I think has given me as much as it could and I’m happy I will ne’er have to work in that restaurant again. Maybe another restaurant at some point, but hopefully I could have a different job. If not, I’m up for the task, I just hope my life doesn’t lead me down that path.
Ok, enough, I should sleep, that way I an get up early and try and do something with my day.
