fi·as·co, noun: a complete and ignominious failure yep. that's what today was. fo' sho'. work must hate me lately. i got there at three and we had some milkshake orders, but since it was hot the ice cream was pretty runny already, and so we made the shakes and they were not very thick. and this lady comes up and like yells at me "this is like chocolate milk! make new ones. and make them thicker this time" .. "alright ma'am. i'm sorry, we'll do that right away." well let's just say that [one] it made a mess and [two] i had to add ice cream to it five times and it still wasn't even that thick. atleast she didn't complain again. then, we're out of diet pepsi in the machine. which is okee dokee cuz we have bottles of it til we get a refill. sounds alright, right? ... wrong. Of course. we accidently bump the diet pepsi on the machine and the whole things starts like.. blowing out air or something. and it's really really loud and we cant figure out how to get it stopped. I was like.. 'crap! i broke it' so after like freaking out and trying to fix it, while taking orders and making them, i finally decided to call my dad. he told me how to try to fix it, but it wouldn't work. so now i'm totally spastic. after like 40 minutes of trying everything i finally got it to stop, thank goodness, but seriously. I was ready to like kill something - or cry. XD so, that all sounds dandy right? everything is now going smooth...... wrong again. Andrew Snyder orders a milkshake and i go to turn the milkshake mixer on.. and ... it's dead! I was seriously like.. what the french toast?! are you kidding. Since I had already used it that day several times. Soo.. I replug it in, and try several things, as he's like standing there watching me. I came to the conclusion that the little plug thing that had been taped to the on switch came off, but there was no way i was going to try to fix it because i was sure it would spark and then that would be bad. So I'm standing there trying to figure out what to do.. when i remembered we had a smoothie machine in the back room. which was helpful atleast, but grr. the milkshake machine was still broken. then, at closing, i took out the grease trap and it splashed all over me. yippee. a grand end to an exciting day. (it was like when i worked on fridayy and the ice cream spilled all over the floor). but alas, for some reason i still like my job. Anyway, my grandma is doing pretty bad so my mom has been down there a lot. life is hectic. but eclipse comes out tomorrow! eeeeeekkkkbaby! that's all in my exciting life |
