i started another job today, because for some weird reason i think the other one might have slipped through my fingers, and because i think the shifts at the new one might work better with my schedule. it's called edgar's cafe, and it's only 1 street over from my apartment. how's this for cool: the cafe is situated on the former site of edgar allan poe's mansion, where he wrote "the raven."
cute, huh? kinda corny the way the ceiling's painted, but it has a nice atmosphere. and the desserts look INCREDIBLE. they have every type of cake/pie/tart imaginable. i was salivating while she was showing them to me.
anyway, i started training today (for which i apparently don't get paid...?) and it was cool but hella stressful. it makes me have an INSANE amount of respect for waitresses. not only is it physically exhausting, but it's mentally taxing, too....so much to keep track of! and i have a feeling new yorkers aren't as forgiving of their waitresses as restaurant patrons in other parts of the country might be. oh well. maybe it'll help me develop a thicker skin or something.
so now i need to do work, because apparently fridays are working-from-home days for my internship. mehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.....
