GOODBYE KZOO!

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

GOODBYE KZOO!

Post by Optimus Prime Rib » Mon May 09, 2005 7:27 pm

Yesterday was my last official working day with Outback Steakhouse in Kalamazoo, MI. Mothers Day is the busiest day of the year in the restaurant business, so my boss requested that I at least work thru that. I got quite the beatdown on the station I worked (Saute= All chicken, fish, pasta,ribs, shrimp). Its normally a station most stores put 2 people on but since they have deemed me "Daddy" on that station, I got the pleasure of "saving labor" for them. Eventually I was wearing a Tiara and saying in my nice baritone voice "Im a pretty princess" over and over again.

After work my boss gave me a giant hug and told me thank you for being a great employee and friend (been helping her through some family problems) and gave me my 5-year pin. This meant alot to me. She was teared up and I proceeded to get choked up as well. 5 year pin isnt cheap. Its a 24k gold boomerang with an opal on it. She really went out of her way for me.

Then the drinking began. 3 shots of liquid cocaine and 5 pints of Guiness later we were off to the next party. And the next one.. and the next one. Eventually winding up stranded at a friends house passing out.

Woke up today and Jessy was doing a great Courtney Love impression, smeared mascara and all while puking. It was lovely lol.

I cant wait for our "welcome back party" when we get back to Louisiana and I start back at my old Outback.

:D

Muchas gracias to Mob for the Sig, proving why he's called 'King'.

The "i" in "Señior" from "Señior's Covenant" is intentional and part of a stupid & cheesy inside joke from '02. Thank you for your concern.

So are you happy about moving back, or do you think you'll miss your life there?

Does this mean you'll be able to make the BotCon in TX this year?
