  • Workplace madness

    So I work in the kitchen at Applebee's. Got called in tonight. So far it is really fucking slow. Like I am keeping my station cleared all the time slow. So far I have drank two monsters. I am losing my freaking mind. I have better things to do than stand here doing nothing.

    Applebees is that unpopular? LOL
    The very existence of flame-throwers proves that some time, somewhere, someone said to themselves, You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to get the job done.

      It is tonight. I haven't been rushed all night. I'm just kinda running in fuck it mode.

        Yeah, I worked as a waiter years ago. If the tables aren't turning over, then the tips aren't rolling in. If the tips aren't rolling in, it feels like a waste (cuz it is). Then the host and bussers get mad because they don't get good tips either. Sometimes we could convince the manager to let us bail when that happened.

          Applebees is just that place where you go to pay more money for frozen dinners.
          All deaths that my characters have in RP PvP or Story are permanent, they are lootable and I will ask if the opposing character does kill them or leaves them unconscious. I also adhere to all Sundren PvP/Death rules, I prefer to play by my own hardcore death rules.

            I'm a dishwasher anyway so tips don't matter to me. But still. I had planned to basically blog all my insane thoughts while I was working, however I stayed just busy enough that I couldn't. Oh well. Life moves on. Next two off then back at it

                That is an idea. I could tap into the free wifi at work. I like this plan.

                  That can certainly be arranged.

                    Ah yes keyboard could be useful. So maybe just run it through the girlfriends tablet and use the keyboard for that. This could be dangerous. I can see it already. "Hey I need large plate." "Go to hell I have to finish this area first."

                      Heh. Dangerous indeed. I'ld advise staying away from dungeons while over VNC as the lag-time is deadly. Found that out the hard way a few times. Best sticking to RP or non-combat stuffs where you can say "BRB-work" or the like. Happens often enough, as a decent percentage of our playerbase works nightshift for stuff that I've seen anyhow: boring until stuff happens, then work takes priority.

                        As a chronic procrastinator and lover of sticking it to the man, I endorse this plan. To hell with these "One Laptop per Child" campaigns, let's get a "One NWN2-Capable Tablet per Bored Employee" fundraiser going.
                        I can't slow down, I can't hold back though you know I wish I could. No there ain't no rest for the wicked until we close our eyes for good!

                          I'd suggest starting a food fight. Bet they'll let you go home early after that.

                            Good idea. And I get all the nasty half eaten food too.
