A friend of mine owns a Subway restaurant and was shorthanded on Wednesday and asked me if I wanted to help during the lunch hours. I said sure, how hard can it be? Just make a few sandwiches and call it a day. HA! They started coming in at 10:30 for food and finally at 1:00 I literally ran out of there. (I had made a lunch date so I could leave early.) I was in charge of lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, bell peppers, onions and all of that on that end of the bar. If the person was short it was hard to hear them over the little bar thingy so I had to stand on my tip toes and tell them to repeat their order. Several times I put the wrong mustard on the sandwich, one time I squirted too much mayo on there and so I had to scrape off that stuff and start over. Needles to say I won't be applying for a job at the nearest Subway anytime soon. Although I did get to have one of their cookies fresh out of the oven. YUMMY!
I am slowly getting to know my birthson. He is not the greatest conversationalist but of course I don't think I am that good at it either. I keep asking the same questions over and over. I usually get an answer from him sometimes he doesn't respond and that bums me out. Anyway he rarely asks me a question about myself which leads me to think that he just isn't interested. But then he will come up with something that makes me think we are taking baby steps. I have never had to work so hard on a relationship in my whole life. It is never been very hard for me to make friends but this one guy has tested my ability many times. Anybody have any suggestions?
