I went back to work yesterday for the first time in over two months! Holy shit!
For almost 80 days I would spend my time watching basketball and old seasons of Amazing Race, reading books like a big boy, drinking beer, and playing on my phone, all while lying down because it hurt to walk. But that shit is over, and I’m a productive part of society again! It’s… a bit weird, haha. I’m having trouble finding time to do all that stuff plus go to work and do work things. So I have some planning to do because I gotta find a way to blend the two worlds. I can already tell that if I let it, I’ll go back to only working basically all day long. Even when I’m not at the restaurant, I have tons of other work to do: payroll, scheduling, website updates, emails to staff, checking to make sure labor is ok, recording sales and other data, ordering everything, making social media posts, tinkering with the menu and with specials and with new cocktails, etc etc fucking etc. It’s a lot. But I don’t wanna lose the time I had made to read and write and play fantasy basketball and write these blog posts! If you have any ideas, let me know. So far I have, “go to bed earlier so you can get up earlier and have more hours in your day to complete tasks.” Honestly I think that’s a pretty good one; I’m gonna try it out.
Alright, time to read a chapter and then set my line up for tonight’s evening of NBA action. Have a great Humpday, nerds.
