Every Sunday morning I wake up at 4:30A.M. to get ready for work. My shift starts at 6 o'clock sharp. Dreading every minute of the dark cold mornings, I roll out of my bed and onto my feet. I start my routine with a nice yummy bowl of oatmeal.
When I get to work I don't feel like putting up with any grouchy attitudes, but I ALWAYS end up with an old grouchy couple to start my day off. I don't let it bother me though. I stay strong and pretend that they don't affect me. I put on a big ol fake smile and go on with my shift.
Today was different from all the rest. When I got to work there was no body there except the graveyard employees sitting at the counter about half asleep.
"Fish! I love seeing your face" the cashier states "It means I get to go home!"
I told him he was out of his mind if he thought he was leavin me by myself on a Sunday morning, because Sunday mornings are always slammed! He tells me that he had one table the whole night so he was going home early, there was no changing his mind.
I was so nervous that I was going to get hit with a bunch of customers with no one to help. But I didn't it was dead from the time I got there to the time the second waitress got to work at 7. Not one customer, not any locals, not any old grouchy people, and definatly not any hot guys! There was absolutly no one. I kept wondering what the heck was going on, and then finally my first customer comes in, a local, he tells me how he didn't want to wake up because of how cold it was. It made sense though because that was exactly how I felt too.
Belive it or not at 4:30AM it was 33 degrees outside! No wonder nobody wanted to get up this morning. It was freaking cold! The weather is changing so fast! It's already October! How exciting! It's getting closer and closer to graduation! Yippy!
