SO I'm get disciplinary action at work for a comment I made to a customer.
Let me preface this with the fact I've been doing fifteen hour days for ten straight.
A few nights ago I walked out of my kitchen to check the booking sheet for the evening when a lady asked me if I was growing my beard for Movember (I don't just grow a mustache, my beard is more impressive) I just replied with:
"Yeah, is that why you're growing yours?"
Needless to say she wasn't happy, it made me smile though but in hindsight I probably should have thought it through a bit more
She did have a beard though, no jokes but some folk don't like honesty
My grandfather died from Prostate Cancer so Movember is something that I can connect with.
So I've been working a lot recently, covering for minions who have either tried to amputate themselves or are on leave, might have a day off on Wednesday, but won't get too excited yet as I've learnt since moving to London five months ago and taking over this kitchen: The World is truly out to get me
Financially I'm fucked, barely breaking even, covering bills, rent and debt, fighting through it and once debt is clear I'll hopefully have a bit more breathing room.
Oh well, nothing to do but work my ass off
iPod random song of the day
My best friend's son was born today, Tyler Simon Patrick, so a little ray of light in an otherwise gloomy autumn day in London
Hopefully I'll get a chance to go out to Kent and meet him soon.
Been doing a full stock take today, can you tell from this picture that I don't like stock takes?
I did get to finish work early though, a short 9 hour day
Stay strong and never ever surrender
