I was in the high limit slot station last night. Split down the middle with my co-worker. She was on one side I had the other. High limit slots is kind of a big deal. It’s likely you can get generous people who tip well regardless if they win a jack pot or not. Other timesContinue reading “About last night …..”

On my way back from my second vacay this month! Yes, yes I know must be nice.Well ur DAMN right ! (Honeymoon Island) I went to Florida to visit my little sis for her birthday.

This entry is dedicated to my Miami trip woes… and to cherry with a “T” wherever  you are…. The perks of working weekends is the ability to take a mid week vacation! I literally just came home from a three day get away in Miami. Nothing like 80 degree weather in February while all yourContinue reading “Going up on a Tuesday …”

In honor of the Super Bowl I’ll share some times from good old Hooters. Way back when I was skinny. What screams football more than your favorite wings?  Football season was a pretty cool time while working at Hooters. Aside from being in the weeds and seventy five people are asking to put “their” specificContinue reading “Mild.Medium.Hot”

It’s Tuesday and I always like to recap my prevoius work week. Well here it goes: ‘Twas the week before Christmas and all through the house …. it was dead. The week before Christmas is always rough in this industry. No one is out spending money at the casino. Although there are a few exceptions:Continue reading “‘Twas the week before Christmas …”

Today was a first. Today I tried hot yoga. I almost died. I can barely balance a full tray of drinks let alone balance my body during tree pose. I love yoga though. I’ve done it about ten times and loved it. This time was different. The room was 90 degrees. No offense, but IContinue reading “Hot yoga …. no bueno “

Serving cocktails isn’t rocket science, so why when ordering one it is? The expression “time is money” is the slogan in this biz. The more drinks I can pump out the more bacon I’m bringing home. Yum, now I’m hungry. If you can’t tell me your drink order in less then 1.5 seconds, I’m screwed.Continue reading “Bacon.”

Hello Monday, You are the most hated day of the week. Yet, I love you Monday. You and Sunday are my faves! You are my Friday Saturday. This morning, I sat back sipped my coffee and read all about how much Mondays suck for all of humanity on Facebook. Sorry 9-5’s this is  payback forContinue reading “change is good”
