Post #3.So my chapter ends at Cliffs and I am not really too sad.I do know Cliff and Eve were very hardworking but in my eyes they didnt seem happy.It was like they were going through the motions but not having any emotion.Does that make sense??? Its October and Danny has his crew set. We have 5 people working.Danny the owner and Bruce were our cooks.Roberto was our dishwasher and myself.I am waiting for the last person to be revealed because she is the best part. A bright yellow corvette comes pulling in the parking lot and I watch this little bitty thing jump out and head into cafe.Can we say Charlene??? She commuted back and forth to Atascadero.I meet her and I instantly feel her energy..Man..did she have energy.Let me set the picture up for you all. Now mind you I have been a waitress since 1980 and we were called waitress back then.Now its servers but to me its the same job title.We shared the week.I had Monday/Tuesday off and she had Wed/Thursday off.We both worked Friday and Saturday and Sunday.No busser..no extra help and no vacations.We loved our shifts and we loved the cafe also the money was very good. The first day we work together was mind-blowing and this is understatement. I would stand there and just watch her zip thorough the cafe like lightening.I felt like a dam snail compared to her.She would have your table cleaned, set up, and order in within seconds.On my end I would have you HELP.. me clean the table , set it up and sometime in there we would get your order in.We complimented each other and people loved us.She was a fast talking and very in control always.She was strong minded and people would just watch in awe.On my side.I was the Whistle while you work, laid back but always laughing kind of waitress.We worked hard and well and seriously speaking there was no real drama. This was our life for a year.As time went by we added people because we got more busy.I remember Scrambles was our competition down the street.They were small like us in those days.We had lines out the door and we worked 2 years together IN-TILL there is a rumor and things are about to take a serious turn,My story starts getting better and better. Post # 4 tomorrow..As I was leaving the cafe tonight alot of memories hit me like a brick wall.I got a little emotional.Everyone enjoy your evening and I thank you all for embracing my story.Peace. +
