>> So I had my free grand slam the other day. The line wasn't crazy. Just a 10 minute wait. Workers were running around Denny's. The server came over and gave me and my friend water and a few minutes later gave us our slam. There was a..I'll call her "a lady without shelter" sitting next to us. She tipped who she thought was her server a dollar. Then she realized it wasn't him when she recognized another server walking by and told him,"I gave the wrong man the tip. I don't remember(which one). I don't have much."
And she handed him a dollar.
When I worked as a server, I wasn't like 'omg I need tips,' I would tell the guests, 'it's alright you don't have to if you don't want to.'
The real server was standing there very greedied eyed waiting for her to pull out her cash. He prolly had to feed his 10 kids back home. He looked more like a "bus boy" than a server that didn't know English.
The hostess was nice though. I asked her how it was like working there and she told me it's busy sometimes and how she's getting promoted to in-house manager and becoming a full-time server. I asked if the place was hiring and she said they're not really hiring since it's not that busy all the time at that location, but, other ones are more likely to hire cause they're super busy. Then she told me to get an application from Shannon, the manager and ask.
Well, when I left I didn't see a Sharon, I saw a Maribel at the front and I asked her for an application. She straight up says, "we're not hiring."
PSSH! You just skerred cause I'm gonna take your job away from you. Anyways Maribel aany waaays! ...I'm sure you have 15 mouths to feed at home.
>> So I am booked a few more days in the month to temp at a dental office. My friend actually works there and she's just on a mini vacay haha. The doc was conversating to me as his bookkeeper was making my check(cha ching! money money money, MONEY!). Actually here's how it went down. I wrote on a paper how many hours I was there for and my name.
doc: (to his bookkeeper) Here make her a check for today. (to me) How much are you an hour?
me: $15
doc: (he ends up writing the check) 15 times...$90?
(bookkeeper asks how many hours and says will calculate on calculator)
(starts writing 90)
(bookkeeper asks again...thanks for asking again because I was like 15 and 8 don't make no 90! I calculated everything already before I even stepped in since I knew my hours the temp agency gave me...I knew I was walking away with $120!)
8 hours.
bookkeeper: that's $120
doc: (tries to scribble fix the $90 but ends up not using it and made the bookkeeper print a check out)
(gives me the check)
How long have you had experience?
me: I graduated last May.
doc: Do you have front office experience?
me: I used Dentrix. What do you use here?
doc: EasySoft(I think that was what he said) it's like the same. Easy. If you want full-time talk to (the lady in front) okay.
me: Front office or back?
doc: Both
me: Oh wow that's great.
(then I start leaving that office cause he was in a hurry to get out of that separate office)
I think I misled him. I have experience from learning it in school. Not real work since last May. Ay yi yi.
Not sure if I want to do front & back because 1, that's a lot of work. I've seen the front office do both and they get hectic and seem like it's overwhelming, which I am sure it is. 2, he has 2 offices. So every other day I would have to commute basically almost in another city town to the other office. Gas guzzler!! So, I skipped asking the front lady about it. I go back next Wednesday so I'll see what happens.
BTW, I was talking to a RDA that works there full-time and she was telling me how the other day she was so busy she didn't even have time to take her 15 minute breaks or even have a lunch break. This office is an eat- when- you- can- no- designated- lunch hour type of office. So, when I was near the break area, she's eating and the doc says in a sorta mad way,
"If you're taking 15 that's ok, if you are on your lunch you have to clock out."
She says, "I know I know."
He made it sound like he's tight on money.
The doc's wife was there too. I heard her pulling him aside at another part of the day and talking in their native language and some English. But, from what I can tell she was trying to calm him down. Might have had something to do about the workers there. I don't think the front office peeps were happy working there. Cause also at the break area the manager and a couple ladies were saying how (someone) wanted more hours but is complaining it's too much work. I think it was the front/back office girl. So yeah, all that at days end made me wonder if I should work there.
Also, it's not digital x-rays. It's the put the film through the machine kind which sucks because if you make a film wrong-it's another 15 minute wait. But, more importantly, digital emits less radiation. When I take x-rays, I am exposed to the scatter even if I go to the side wall. When I was helping put the films into the sleeves of a folder pocket, I was asking him which order he liked them in. And he looks at the film and tells me the apical should be in the film. I asked if another one needs to be taken. He says, no it's okay this time. DUDE! I didn't even take the friggin' picture. I was just helping putting them in and asked a question. Now he thinks I made a bad x-ray. It was the RDA who didn't take a break that took it(the pro).
>> On a more happier note, today is me and BOYs 1st bf/gf anniversary together. Yay! Tonight is dinner. Unless I get a call from the temp agency for today. If it lasts til the evening, our dinner will be rescheduled. He wants to take me to Disneyland. But, with my situation, I have to move out first. He said that I won't remember our year anniversary as doing something if I hold off on it. So he wanted to do it asap.
And she handed him a dollar.
