I don't think I'm cut out for the food service industry. I recently got hired at Alexander's as a hostess. You would think that's a pretty straight forward job, and I assumed I would fare much better than I did at waitressing (many a dish was broken, I think I broke 5 in one day once). Well everything went really well on my first shift, but today as I was removing a giant tray of salsa from the cooler I managed to get a HUGE red stain all across my chestal region. I just happened to be wearing a white shirt. Panicking, I used a cloth and mopped myself off, and I actually succeeded in making the shirt white again. The downside was that it was now decorated with a big wet patch. I tried frantically to dry it but we all know that's impossible and you just have to wait it out. As I left the kitchen I had a fleeting hope that maybe no one would notice. HA! Maybe 3 seconds later one of the servers asked me if I had had some sort of accident.
Sigh. It's inevitable. And it doesn't help that these sort of accidents run in my family. I mean my mom broke her wrist by a garage wall hitting her, so what chance do I have?
