It's been a while since I've posted, but fortunately for all of us my time has been filled with one lonely activity...working at Tucanos. Even though I smell like burnt-meat-mixed-in-with-cleaning-supplies at the end of the day, I do enjoy working there. My duties primarily consist of greeting, beveraging, cleaning, desserting, and moneying, all of which have become monotonous and robotic. The only thing that keeps me going is the people I've met who make me laugh and make work bearable. Who doesn't love an infomercial about the stability of our uniforms against moisture (or soaking wetness, for that matter)? My space bubble has decreased greatly in size as a result of the excessively tiny server station, as well as efforts from other servers to hug me at least five times an hour. I've done a lot of thinking while there and I've been wondering, "Wouldn't it be cool if you could just erase someone?" "That would be murder, Olivia." My sword fighting skills have greatly improved, but only if that sword is actually a carrot. I can peel a medium sized potato in under 15 seconds, and I aspire to peel as quickly and efficiently as Blake someday. Blah da beep boo dah bah doop! Doobie blah bloop. Drumming for the birthday song takes a lot of practice and training, and sometimes it sounds like there is a tribe of indians coming to war. If you're lucky, we'll do the birthday song in slow motion. Occasionally we like to roll the napkins with nothing in them and see how the bussers react. Two words: Barbecue Sauce. One more word: Hate. In Alberquerque...let your imagination run wild. I've never coveted ball point pens more in my life, and while we're on the subject, don't EVER steal Trevor's birth control pen. Can you eat a giant piece of chocolate cake in 5 seconds or less? We can. I just washed my uniform! This cleanliness will only last for approximately two seconds. Hot Schedules! You better be on top of things, because you only have a one minute window when you can clock in before you get written up for being late. WE'RE TOWER BUDDIES!! Will someone PLEASE take this beer out for me? Passion fruit, pineapple, mango, guava, raspberry, strawberry...say that 20 times fast. I could. Did you know Dustin can make an Ipanema in 23 seconds, start to finish? What I'm trying to say is, we're good at what we do. "Olivia, don't say 'make-out', tomorrow is Sunday." Thank goodness Dustin is listening to the Mormon Tabernacle Choir in the bar. I've developed a hatred toward NuSkin people, although I can't seem to pin the reason why.
Sometimes work can get tiring, seem ridiculous, and feel longer than the Great Wall of China. Thank goodness we have each other to get through it with smiles left on our faces at the end of the day. I love you my Tucanos buddies!
