...more about vacations.....

Let’s go back and talk about vacations for a few minutes………in the world of restaurants, there really isn’t a “paid vacation.” If you work somewhere long enough, you may eventually get a paid vacation, but it’s not going to be anywhere near what you would make in a week, so you have to weigh it out…..on the plus side, you can take a vacation anytime you want, as long as your shifts are covered…..but….are you going to lose too much money in all the merriment? I mean, at least you don’t have to wait a year to have a week off, pack up more shit than you need, go someplace you’re not really sure you want to go to, only to have it rain…..thus rendering you prisoner of all things indoors….(not what you had in mind)…..no swimming…..no beach…..that suntan oil was a waste of money……after day 3 of rain, everyone is getting one everyone else’s nerves…..you’re all arguing over what to eat…….or where should we eat….or what time should we eat….sounds like dealing with the customers at work……maybe I should have just stayed home and worked….at least that way I would be making money instead of losing it…….




But for now, it’s beautiful out, and I am on day 2 of my self-declared vacation……oh, I didn’t go anywhere…..I just wanted to relax for a couple of days….going somewhere seemed like too much work at the moment……..
