Work was interesting yesterday. In a shocking twist, the biggest kiss-ass employee (previously mentioned in Fridays blog) was fired. The reason..."Restaurant is going in a different direction." This girl has been there for years and although I have had issues with her, she is a very dedicated employee. Nobody will tell her why she's fired other than the reason given above. I think that she deserves better.

Apparently, there are more firings to come. One person I know got wind of this and decided to quit first. I was also told that I was not one of the people that would be getting the boot. (I hope my source is reliable!) Something is definitely up - I just don't know what it is.

We have another meeting Monday night with a staff appreciation hour following - which means cheap drinks at the bar. I wonder how many staff members will be left and if we will get an explanation as to why things have changed. I will not be staying for happy hour. When I drink I get much more vocal than usual. I'd rather just sit back and listen and take it all in-besides, I've got better things to do.

I hear there's a new restaurant opening up down the road. I might apply. Really, I'd like to get out of the restaurant business, but where to go - I do not know. Hubby and I are working to drastically decrease our debt this year. A good paying job for me would help. It might be time for a change.
