Today was tiring, but marked the end of my incredibly hectic last week at A Quantum Leap Advertising. I give him a year... tops. He is such an incredibly bad marketing guy. I just don't see him coming up with anybody to design what he wants, for the money he's willing to pay.
Oh well.
Things at Starbucks are progressing well. I have gotten pretty good at calling the drinks back to the person at the "drink bar" in the right order, and I've really gotten better at working the register. The only really frustrating moments are when we get slammed with alot of orders for the same kind of thing. In those cases, only one or two people can help out, and there isn't enough room for more. Like today for example, about 20 or so 15 year old girls on a tennis team showed up, and ALL ordered "Frappachino's"... a frappachino is a frozen coffee that's very popular with the younger, non-coffee drinking crowd. I enjoy them myself, but in that bulk, they can really slow the entire line down...
Enough of that for now.
I'm listening to "All you need is love" by the Beatles. I never ever realized how annoying that song is before. I'm switching to another song. And... random picks "Ain't Nobody's Business" by Willie Nelson off of his recent blues album "Milk Cow Blues". I must say... some of the best blues I've ever heard... The guests on the album are fantastic, and the performances are breathtaking. I would love to see a concert of his in this style sometime.
Well, I'm off for the evening. Sorry about what has been an incredibly boring post.

Not a boring post... this is what a blog is. Don't be ashamed of it.
Ready to go to Farm Aid, eh? I think that's the only thing Willie Nelson does anymore. Regardless, I nearly fell out of my chair on the Beatles thing. Couldn't agree more. That song has John/Yoko and Paul the beyotch McCartney stink all over it.
