Can you believe it?
Can you believe that after all this time, I got my job back? Yes, that's right! I'm back at Navajo City!
What was it... last April or so, the old managers were going to lease the buisness and run it for themselves. Well, they didn't need me around so there I was with no job suddenly. I managed to get by doing odd jobs over the summer, I know how to survive. Then all of the sudden the owners call me back in.... "can you work for us again?" That was not just YES!, but HELL, YES!!!
Apparently the managers wouldn't sign the lease or something. The owners were afraid of the liability since the tax people would come after them if the managers didn't pay the taxes or if someone got hurt and wanted to sue the restaurant. It's bad, but things like that do happen. So, from what Debi tells me ... she was there... the owner came two days in a row to try to get the papers signed and then suddenly things got ugly and personal, so the owner just told them to pack their belongings and vacate the property. In the oil fields they have a term for it..." getting run off". This is opposed to "dragging up"which is more voluntary kind of termination. Either way, they went away.
First thing that happen was that store bought chocolate cake on the counter went straight into the trashcan.
Well they got me back and I haven't had too many customers so I've spent my time cleaning stuff. Those managers weren't too hot on keeping the place clean. I was in there a couple of times while they were running it, and let me just say this... it wasn't the kind of place you'd eat if you had a choice of a nice clean place down the street. I don't think the men's bathroom had been cleaned over the summer. Reminded me of a gas station bathroom more than a cafe. Geeze...
I get the feeling that the customers kind of appreciate the change based on the size of the tips they are leaving. Do you know how much I missed having that tip money in my pocket over the summer?
Well, as if that wasn't enough gossip.... they got Mary to come back in three shifts a week and hired another cook for five shifts, but instead of showing up for work, that cook is down in the San Juan County jail for disturbing the peace or something... maybe drunk driving? No one knows for sure except that the owner is over there cooking and I got called to go back in today to help cover. The owner says he's not posting bail so I guess we need to hire us another cook. Hey, did you need a job? Doesn't pay all that much, but its a nice place to be. At least, I am glad to be there.
Ciao...
