After the assault of the vixens had abated i discovered that we had taken our enire projected sales for the hour in about 20mins which would make me look good atwork on Monday. Not to mention make some of the other managers little envious! The shift as a whole went well. Many drunks were served the senile old lady was mentioned over the pubwatch radio several times and we had street marshals hanging about inside the restaraunt for most of the night which ensured nobody caused any trouble! I had the last customers out of the door and the place emptied for about 00:05 and we then proceded to clean the place and i ended up gettign home a little earlier then usuall which was a good thing!
Well folks thats all for tonight. Now its time for bed before i wake for church tomorrow!!

The Vixens are here!!
Ahh Saxon would be so jelous
I just had the pleasure of serving the entire Southampton Vixens cheerleading squad..that's about 50 cheerleaders. As they were obviously students we sorted them all out with student offers. A little friendly flirting happen as we'll I think.... All part of giving great customer service. Its amazing the attention you can command when the ladies are hungry!!

The staff have arrived
So part 2 of the live blogging
The staff have just arrived on their way out for a night in he town centre. The ladies LN and SB made their customery pit stop to say hi on their way out. The senile lady reappeared and another large group of chavs occupied the lobby. I've also been listening in on our pubwatch radio to the fun the bouncers are having already and its only 10. Could be a fun night later!

Live blogging
So time for the llive blogging I promised from work..
I arrived to run my saturday night shift at 3.45 and found that the day managers had done a great job of cleaning the place and getting it ready for the night. It was busy also but I had plenty of staff on. Since then the clientel of the restaurant has changed. Around 5pm the place was half full of chavs who were just hanging around without having bought anything so they were all moved along. We also had one of our regulars in. Shes a slightly deaf old lady wo is a little senile as well making her.... interesting to serve unless you have lots of patience and are good at keping people on task. Fortunatly im good at this and so I ended up serving herSince then its been fairly quiet so were getting the place clean and ready for the onslaught of drunks who will surley arrive soon....
Number of chavs kicked out...approx 25
Number of senile old ladies served 1
Number of drunks served 0

All speculation on the origin of this is welcome in the coments below. An explanation may follow in the morning!

Dead....or maybe not......
So hows this for a treat.. not one but two blog posts in a day!
Being a wednesday we had Institute tonight. I was a little later than usuall arriving as i had to pick Y on the way and had been catchign up with a friend from university, which was good. I knew him as he lived in teh room opposite mine for a year when i was in halls. We remanisced about the Elvyn slop and teh nimber of times we went for takeouts and i drove to Dominoes for pizza after we were late for dinner and left with a particually unppealing selection!!
Institute was good as usuall. Brother H taught an excallent lesson. The first was Adjusting to married life and was just what i was expecting. I took this part of the course 4 years ago so a lot of it is reinforcing what ive learnt already, but the Eternal marriage course dosen't have as much depth as the ones on the standard works so what you see is what you get!
As i was reflecting in class today I realised how much roles in the class have changed. 4 years ago i was new to the class and the area and was learning all about things from teh first time and enjoying being away from home for the first time and trying to sort out many emotions i had and the class really helped, especially the contributions from the more experanced class members. Today I realied that I am now one of those and hwo hopefully im helping to teach those who are taking the corse for the first time.
The second class on the Old Testement was also good and i have several notes to transer to my scriptures tomorrow morning when i study. It was interesting to look at the end of Deuteronomy and realise how things can easily be mistranslated when the docterines being taught are either lost or misunderstood. Anyone who wants more details will have to ask me to explain.
Well, ite getting late now so i'd better head off to Bed. I look foreward to being able to get Saxons take on the lessons in his post tomorrow!!!

After a brief respite...
So as you may be able to see from the dates on the last post its been a little while since i last posted... yeah....about that......
Lifes been busy i have done lots visited the family and served an awful lot of burgers. Blackwidow now has a new job selling electrical goods at a large retail chain and Institutes going well. Christmas was great and im lovin' it at work!
Works been particially enjoyable with many interesting anecdotes and more quotes. I've had both the Police and the Ambulance service attend on my shifts to deal with the members of the public who end up in the store. Theres a saying ive heard that definatly bears true on nights in a town centre. A person is Clever. People are dumb
Somethign im goign to try doing is the occasional live blogpost from work when intersting things happen.
Could be interesting.
Could be boring
Whos knows!
Tune in Later for more!!
