There, I fixed it.

The other day I served a table that had two little boys. One of the kids had a little cut on his knee that had opened up again. He was sitting in his chair being sad and holding a napkin on his cut. I smiled sweetly and asked if he wanted a band-aid. He shyly knodded.

Interestingly... I bought Marvel Comic Super Hero band-aids at the dollar store. We only had two left... Captain America! That kid was so excited. Turned out he needed three, though. I grabbed the other box of band-aids and let him choose his favorite color. He was so excited. He picked blue. His little brother felt left out, so I let him choose one too.

When I went to clean up their table after they left, I found a blue band-aid on the back of a chair. Hee hee. Children.

My husband

I just gotta show off my cute husband. Here is he vacuuming the middle room at the restaurant. He does the vacuuming, I do the mopping. We're cool.

Popcorn

One day I went to work feeling in the mood for popcorn. I bought a small box of the stuff to take with me and to share with everyone.
Too bad I wasn't used to the microwave... I burned a hole in the bag and burned half the popcorn. It smelled wonderful. :P I had to throw the whole bag in the sink 'cause it was smoking like crazy.

Cocktail Sadness

*sigh* Turn my back for one moment and it takes a flying leap off the counter.

Mop-top

Sooooo the mop that I use is separate from what the waiters/waitresses use in the kitchen. There are several reasons for this. The kitchen gets hella dirty from food and grease. Then the mop gets hella dirty and becomes un-cleanable. And... they are super rough on the mops and break them constantly.

Recently they broke the last mop and had to start using mine. I asked my boss to order a new mop. She was alright with it, but it wasn't gonna come for a week and a half. Great. The bathrooms have white tile. For the last week they've been a dull grey, no matter what I did to them.

Today, the shiny new mop came. It felt like Christmas!

Nobody touch my mop!

Anniversary

March 20th is my one year anniversary. Mark and I got married in the Manti, Utah temple in 2010. Best day of my life! It's been a great year. :)

Before and after.



Tables get dirty. That is a fact of life. You can sanitize them all you want, but there will always be that layer of clean dirt that doesn't do any harm except turn the table a funny color.




So, every so often, we clean the tables with degreaser.



Looks clean, right? This is before I cleaned it.


Here's what the rag looked like. Notice the white on the left side. That part didn't touch the table. The right side did... hee hee.

Skid marks!

Went in to the men's bathroom to clean one night and found this in front of the urinal. Can someone please explain?

Clean up on aisle... kitchen.

Apparently when a lot of stoneware plates fall on to tile, it sounds like an avalanche. For real.
