Long Days, Short Nights

Posted in Port 412, Training, Tulips on July 22nd, 2009 by Colin

Brandon is going to a wedding this weekend, and he wants to get most of the tiling done at Tulips before he goes, so I’m covering for him at the front of the house…A LOT. I’m praying Amy, the other FOTH manager, is scheduled a lot as well so I can get back into the kitchen or just have a break.

I attended an 8-hour food safety class with Tom, Brandon, Jeff, and Tim, and we took a test to get our ServSafe certification. (We’ll find out in 2 weeks, but we’re all pretty confident about it since the instructor was great, the fairly easy test, and the pass bar set fairly low.)

Yesterday I didn’t need to be in until 4p, but I volunteered to come in at 9a so Brandon could get started early on the tiling. I was there until 10p.

Today, same thing, 9a-10p.

Tomorrow, 10a-close (11p).

Friday, noon-close (11:30p).

Saturday, 3p-close (11:30p).

Sunday, 3p-close (11p).

Then on Monday I have a Tulips tasting at 3p.

And then I would like to pass out until the afternoon of the next day.

No Week for the Weak

Posted in Port 412, Training on July 11th, 2009 by Colin

I’ve got close-to-open shifts today/tomorrow and again Monday/Tuesday, and potentially Tuesday/Wednesday and Wednesday/Thursday (This means I could be working from open to close Tuesday-Thursday.). Then I’m working 4 to close Friday and Saturday, off Sunday. Total hours for the week will probably be about 63 hours.

The other interesting thing about this week is that I’m going to be training at the front of the house. Read more »
