How the hell did I become a 50 something server?????

Some days...I still wonder that same thing......well...let me look back for a minute....I think it may have had something to do with the fact that I lost my business......funny thing about owning a business...when they close...you no longer make any money...or it could have had something to do with the extra house I couldn't sell that was sucking me dry......the business was title research....you know, for when you puchase or remortgage your house.....actually it was pretty dull....it went pretty good for a while...and then our clients wanted us to charge less...so we could still get the same amount of work...(just like tipping has gotten lower lately) blah,blah,blah....real estate went to hell and so did my business......and so much for flipping that extra house.....shit, I need to find a job.... I went in search of a bartending job....I was really good at that......I hadn't waited tables in 30 years!.....I hadn't even filled out a job application in ...well...about 30 years! I am not thrilled about doing this......last time I filled out a job application for a restaurant, the process was a little different.....a lot less complicated then all this corporate stuff......30 years ago...you filled out a one page application...talked to someone for 10 or 15 minutes....you either had the job or you didn't...simple......so here I am filling out job applications...one place wanted to do a credit check...for a freaking server job!!!!!!!! I think not!!!!...so I left there without even finishing the app.....so now, the place that hired me.....I took a personality test...(if you don't know whether I'm nuts or not, in the first 15 minutes...you're never gonna know)....if you can't pass their personality test...you probably should not be allowed to associate with ...well....anyone.



So here I am sitting in a server class with people who are younger then my son....oh boy....
