GO IPHONE 3GS. so anyways, i'm going to movieworld on tuesday with work, its going to be hell fun. Crew trainer rally, heck yes. I say that way too much. Then I have work the next day, and the day after that I am going to Southbank baby. One thing though. My iphone is being a real shit head with battery. It keeps running out of battery and I hate it. I'm sick of charging it everyday and every night. I'm off. Bye bloggers

yesterday's troubles

Today has taught me something.
Not only have i encountered the many issues of dust and peoples insecurities with dust, but i have discovered that "some people" get frightened or shy away becuase of yesterdays troubles. Thus why i named this blog yesterday's troubles. Ever had a day where you just feel like a dried up leaf, being crunched by a 50tonne truc? I defininately have, and hate it when it happens to me or someone close to me. Well as many people say you can't change the past or perfectly predict the future. But you can dwell on your memories and yesterday's troubles. I watched my grade seven powerpoint this morning. I just remember being carefree, troublesome and young,free and stupid in the schoolgrounds. Suprisingly today actually turned out a better day than i predicted after watching this video. All the people at work were wonderful. Customers actually decided they wanted to take the right order from me and not walk away with someone elses meal. They smiled. They actually smiled and had a good attitude towards our staff. Now I don't know whether you know how it feels when you're having an absolute bad day, and you just seem to be getting all the sh**ty and pissed off customers. I had one complaint today. and as a front counter manager, handled it well (not cocky at all) as the customer made it easier by just being nice. Unfortunately my day did go downhill a little before I left. I had to perform an SOC (station observation checklist) on a young boy who was working on fries. Not only did he not know the order of the vats or how to put fries into the station, he didn't even know how to pour oil into the vats. Unfortunately, i HAD to fail him. You simply can't pass with such little knowledge. I felt sorry for the poor guy. He hadn't been taught any of this stuff, and it wasn't his fault that he was going to fail. So the poor dude has to spend a while of tomorrow's shift with me as I retrain him on fries. Anyways, as I was saying why do we all worry about yesterday's troubles? Let's just continue on with life. Live to the fullest and stop worrying. It's going to make you feel worse.
