Yesterday was my first day at The Krawl. It is a pretty cool place. I had a crash course through everything and the Manager, Matthew, and I organized all of the beer in the coolers and setup a new system so that it is easier to keep up with what is in there. This week I am working two shifts, Tuesday and Thursday. I am not sure how everything works, but I know they are slow and I will have the time to learn it all.
It is up to each of the bar-tenders to drum up your own crowd. Yesterday in an 8hr shift I only did $210 in gross retail sales. I do not have enough experience in bars yet to make any assumptions but I can't imagine that is profitable! I will be broadcasting my schedule on FB. I also want to see if I can get some of my friends to pass along the word of where I am working and maybe get some more people talking about the place. This is going to be an interesting winter!!
Work at Hog's breath is going pretty well. I am really hoping to work my way up. Probably will be trapped in Door position through the entire winter unless someone quits or gets fired. They are all pretty tight and the schedule is always the same! I did manage to work myself up in the schedule to a prime spot! I have every Sunday and Monday off. I will also have both of these days off from The Krawl. I am stoked about that!! Its Tim's only day off on sundays and I actually get a weekend!
Today, I woke up and it is kind of cloudy here in paradise. I talked to Tim about going to Harpoon Harry's for breakfast/lunch. I went to get in the shower and Erika text me. She said she made a Hungarian vegetarian meal and asked if I would like to come over. I agreed. Luckily I was in the mood for trying new things! This thing was very good and WAY out of my comfort zone. It was some kind of vegetable bake. It had mozzerella, sour cream, mushrooms, cabbage, yellow squash, and brussel sprouts. Out of everything, the only thing I did not care for was the brussel sprouts. Amazing food!
I came home from lunch about 3pm. I have to be at work at 6pm, so of course I am watching kayak porn on vimeo and typing a blog!! What else would prepare me for a night at the Hog? Evan Garcia and Fred Norquist have done it again!! Substantial Media House is another fanastic success.
