xiphiasSo, today, they came in to “clean the beer lines” before I started my shift.
I don’t know exactly what “cleaning the beer lines” entails, but it generally appears to consist of blowing beer foam all over the brass of the beer tap.
I spent a good fifteen minutes after they left with rags and brass polish attempting to get the tap back the way it looked before they showed up. I came close.
But at least we now know that the lines are clean. And clean lines are important. Yep. Lines that are clean. Good thing.
Sarah’s shift was over at 3 (because she starts at like 8, serving breakfast), but Maria’s shift goes until 4.
It was an incredibly slow day. Almost nobody showed up until Maria knocked off early and went home at 3:10 because “nobody’s going to show up.”
You have to understand the amount of “not surprised” I had about this. I should probably suggest to Monique that, if she wants to increase sales, all she needs to do is to let everybody but me go home because “nobody’s going to show up.”
And even after I was the only one there, there were only like seven or eight customers. Mind you, when there had been other waitstaff there, there had never been more than five customers. But I was fine.
