i'm knackered

Day 22 @ Bistro

Was at work from 12-2.30pm. Didn't get to rest during my split shifts, gotta complete the online training, which lasted bout 3hourish. And back to work again at 6pm-12am.

Next shift is at 6am, later. (It's 1.40am now)

Today's service was okay. Busy but not crazy. Still manageable. Running in and out, gotta be the runner and was needed on the floor to take some orders even though i was incharged on the BOH. Few complaints, creme brulee wasn't crunchy. The waiting time was longer than usual - so on and so forth.

A part from that, guess we did a great job despite we were under staffs. The part time girl Ally left home early, and there were only me, James, Lisa and Lancome. 2 in & 2 out respectively.

I think i'm still very poor in memorising the stuffs from the menu :(

Was taking the desserts order;

Guy A, "What exactly is Chocolate Pithivier?" he asked politely.

Owkay. I was like..."It is... hmm I'm afraid to tell you that i need to check with the chef. I apologise, I'm new here."

Guy A, "That's fine.."

"I'll be right back."

Went to pastry chef, then back to him. Explained the whole lot, he didn't want it. He wanted a pear tarte tatin instead.

Fine.

Guy B, "What vintage port do you do by glass?"

Owkay. Smile waitress, smile.

"Hmm good question. Port, yes we do port".

"By glass hmm I regret to tell you that i have to check with the bartender."

"Do you.. " and was I interupted.

"Yes, please check, I appreciate that." He grinned very fake. I totally felt that.
