zero Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 So after some... setbacks in my 'career' I had to go back to working a job I haven't done in ages- cooking in a pub of all places. This place sucked really hard, all of the other cooks were major geeks who only talked about this online game World of Warcraft which they ALL played and literally talked about all the time, on Sundays they got together and actually played full fledged table top Dungeons and Dragons with the kitcken manager as Dungeon Master, plus it was super high volume, a major cluster fuck space wise and you guessed it minimum wage to boot. It was seriously soul destroying work. Anyways I didn't just get one new job I got two. One is still cooking at another way better pub, better people, much better money and way more lax with more space and less stress. The other job is the one I'm really psyched about though which is serving (way way better money) at Guelph's only Jazz club Manhattan's. So basically I'll be working a full time job and a part time job, not sure how long I'll be able to keep it up without burning out but at least I'll be able to move into a better place, do some nice stuff for myself and others and moreover not feel like my soul is being destroyed. So I guess good things do occasionally happen to good people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SevenSeasJim Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 It was seriously soul destroying work. I felt that way as a summer student at Dofasco (2 times). I couldn't get an education fast enough! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weirdness Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 Don't listen to his lies, I saw the zero man yesterday and he was on his way down to "Club Electra" at the Manor Hotel(the peelers) for his new exotic dancing gig. Serving it up is right!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CookieMonster Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 Congradulations! Don't worry, working 2 jobs is not as bad as you might think as long as you can maintain some semblence of routine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Large Marge Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 Don't worry, working 2 jobs is not as bad as you might think as long as you can maintain some semblence of routine. Are you kidding me? You must be in the 25 and under bracket... I lasted about a month in the "soul-destrying" 2 job category; mind you that was two full-time jobs. Never mind... I guess my current Bay Street gig for one of the biggest banks in the world is what truly puts me in the soul-destroying category You deserve the good Zero; congrats!
