cake eater

Last night at work, we had crew incentive for the glassies and bar backs. Whoever works the hardest in the eyes of the manager, wins a $100 gift certificate which can be used at a number of stores including clothing, groceries, and liquor. I knew I had it in the bag before the shift even started because I've really been busting my arse. Once we closed down, cleaned, and stocked, we all were enjoying the free drink we get after every shift, the winner was announced. I'll be going on a shopping spree this week. I hate to always be tooting my own horn, but i can't help it that I'm absolutely phenomenal at everything. Not to mention the major in the brass band.

I've grown a strong hatred for drunk people. Not so much girls, but guys. Some of them are quite helpful, and add lots of comic relief during tough moments, but most, not so much. I'm not sure if it's drunk people in general, or just drunk aussies, but i must say they are very very ignorant. I usually start shifts asking to get by nicely, but after a handfull of people see you, but continue to just stand there, i begin the snowplow. Usually the snowplow also comes along with a smartass remark to whoever is in the way. That usually gets them. Now I'm not in the wrong. My manager has told me to just bowl through people if they aren't doing what i ask. If i ever knock anyone down, I'll just resight the scene from 'The Mighty Ducks' where the badboy on the hawks takes out Banks. "What did you do?" "My job!". Then I'll give them a cold stare.
Working at a bar, i hear the same songs over and over again. I haven't started to really despise any of them, but i have taken a liking to a few, and get exited when they come on.

In advance I'd like to apologize to my friends, family, and myself.

Britney Spears - Piece of Me,
Pink - U + Ur Hand,
Good Charlotte - I Don't Wanna Fall in Love.(so sorry bro)

The other two, I don't apologize for because they actually are good.
The Potbelleez - Don't Hold Back.
The Fratellis - Chelsea Dagger.

The other night i found myself mouthing along with the song "Don't Cha". The problem with that is that the song goes "Don't cha wish your girlfriend was hot like me". I stopped and looked around. There were more guys singing along then girls. Odd?EMMMMIIILLLLIIIIOOOO.
