"You are calm and reposed, let your beauty unfold. Pale white, like the skin stretched over your bones. Spring keeps you ever close. You are second hand smoke. You are so fragile and thin, standing trail for your sins. Holding onto yourself the best you can. You are the smell before rain. You are the blood in my veins."

  • Things that annoy me.
    • When people don't put the lids back on the soup all the way.
    • Cheese graters left on the counter instead of on the shelf. Don't be lazy, servers. Trays left out are even worse...unless it's clean and has a full cheese grater on it, and is ready in my line of 3 when i'm expoing.
    • When they don't throw away the little cup after putting the ginger snap crumbs on the cheesecake, or the chocolate pieces on the gelato. The garbage can is right there!
    • When servers go out of their way to pull a chair up when I'm cashing them out. I'm incredibly fast at it, so is it really necessary to sit down for those 2 seconds?
    • When servers tell me I need to pull a soup. Don't tell me how and when to do my job. Thanks. And if it's that important to you to get it done in that moment, you do it.
    • When people call about reservations. I'm over it. "Even if it's a large party of 8?" Big freaking deal.
    • Servers that are too lazy to go to the bar, so they ask me to put their employee meal in for them when I'm doing to go's.
    • Servers that lean on the counter and watch me clean up the messes that they've been making all afternoon. Grab a towel and clean something, jerk.
    • When the soups aren't in the core when I need them.
    • When I'm bartending and clearly talking to a guest at the bar top, and a server stands there and says my name from the side station until I acknowledge them. Yes, I am ignoring you on purpose because you are being rude, and you are not the most important person in the restaurant.
    • If your name is Tiffany and you work at Olive Garden, you are a HUGE pet peeve, period.
    • Co-workers that get personal calls on a daily basis.
    • If you only need half of a Tiramisu, cut the whole thing anyway. Don't be lazy. You're already holding the knife and wearing the glove.
    • When servers tell me they're ready to cash out, expecting me to not come right over, but they should know that I always come right over. So they make me stand there and watch them organize their credit card slips and money for three minutes, when I could be doing something productive like wrapping my desserts.
    • If you step infront of me and are going wayyyy slower than the pace I was walking...rude.
    • When people order "seafood fettuccine" or a side of "fettuccine alfredo sauce". Think about what you just said, then try again.
    • When you are rude to me because your guest didn't like their drink. It's not my fault they are picky! Don't be a d-bag. "If it's hit or miss, you shouldn't order it. That's wasteful and there are thirsty people on this earth."!!-Quoted by Larissa
    • Don't thank me for dumb shit every two seconds. Just because I'm opening a bag of croutons, or stocking to go salad containers, or wiping down the soup well...this is part of my job. Stop thanking me...it's really freaking annoying.
    • If you ask me if I need any help, or if I'm doing okay..and I say I'm fine, thanks.... that means I'm fine and I don't need your help, so leave me alone, and don't ask me two minutes later.
    • Don't get mad at me if there aren't any tubies, shells, or gnocchi in the soup. I did my part...so shut the hell up and get them from the cooks yourself.
    • When you're at home, do you leave the door to your microwave open when you're done using it? I didn't think so. Stop being a lazy ass and shut the freaking door.
    • It is not that hard to get the dressing in the bowl. Please stop being wasteful and dumping it all over the counter and making a gigiantic, disgusting, greasy mess. I understand that you are in a hurry, but come on, really?
    • Do I laugh at you when you put a hair net on? Right. I don't. So why the hell is it so funny when I do? I do not like being made fun of, and you (Misters and Misses) that laughed at me all night are a bitch/asshole.
