Sweet Rejection

So...I transfered back to food and beverage, and was working in Woodlands, just like old times. I worked a week, and the next schedule came up and I was scheduled six days...which was more than I ideally wanted, but I was willing to do it. Then, the head of food and beverage walks through the back kitchen and sees me working...evil, terrible, despicable Amanda. Next thing I know, I've been pulled from the schedule and sent to jump through a bunch of flaming hoops. I've since landed in The Turf Club...under the umbrella of my old boss, Jerry. Supposedly, the idiot that doesn't like me, thinks I need to prove myself by working my way up...but, sticking me in one of the two smoking and gaming bars, (that's about to under-go a little reconstruction to make it more of a lounge area, more ideal for a cocktailing lovely like myself) is far from the bottom!

Honestly, this whole thing was a blessing in disguise. Granted, it was humiliating...being treated so awfully in front of all my co-workers, who all know full-well how great and hard of a worker I am...but the bar is an absolute cake-walk. I forgot how easy bar work is...in Woodlands, I had to bust my ass for my tips...and don't get me wrong, I don't turn my nose up to hard work...but considering I was looking for more simplicity in my work life so I could focus more on my momma work, this is perfect! I work three days a week, 10-6pm...four days off is little much...but it's nice to not have such a hectic work schedule and have so much more time with my boy. And the brilliance of it all, even working only three days, I still make relatively the same pay as I did working 40+ hours as a supervisor in the hotel! :)

Happy...I'm HAPPY!!

Timmy's doing wonderfully! He's been sleeping through the night again...think he knows when I'm gone, but since I'm rarely gone now, he doesn't need to wake me up every two hours in a desperate attempt to get some much needed momma time! He loves his bouncer and is trying to sit up on his own and crawl around! I love that boy! :) I love my life!! Now we just need Drew to get a job that doesn't emotionally and physically drain him, and we'll be all set!
