I saw Dean over the weekend, he pointed out I had not been on in a long time, I figured some amount of explanation is in order, so here we go.
I work for a small restaurant, for a friend of mine (kind of, he is my friend, he is an owner, but we leave each other alone.). I had to let some people go a few months ago, we had to make some cuts, unfortunately, labor saw most of that cutting.
So being the Kitchen Manager and nice guy that I am, I have been putting in 60 hour weeks, trying to make this workout, I got word today that we have declared bankruptcy, and my future, and the future of the company is uncertain. We will continue serving, but I think we're about to see some changes, and I have been asked to redesign the menu, portion, quality and pricing, and have been told to revise my ordering for three days out, most places order for five.
I do most of my posting from work, I used to get to hang out in my office, a lot, now I'm in the kitchen non stop. I just got the news and needed to vent.
In a weird way, this might be good, I've been wanting to catch up with everyone, I'm not seeing a decrease in my hours yet, but it's inevitable. Less time at work means more time for bikes though, so I am conflicted.
I'm going to start looking for a new job soon, we'll see, I don't know.
So hey guys!
