Grrrrr...Just Grrrrr

I haven't blogged for a while which could be a result of everything pretty much sucking right now.
Well not everything, the new pad is pretty decent. Nikki and I painted and we can see the lake from our living room. That gets the positive stuff out of the way, on to the sucking (that sounds vaguely porn-like), the good stuff, the rant.
It's pretty humbling when you realize that you can't find anything good in where you work. I think as a result of the past two weeks I officially hate the Cake.
The managers sorta suck and then they turn around a do a nice little thing which makes you feel bad for thinking they suck, which sucks.
I am getting quite disillusioned with the human race when they are in customer form. It appears as if everyone is becoming whinny, demanding, crabby, and cheap. Maybe when people go out to dinner as a group they should all make it a point to listen (to me and each other) so I don't have to repeat the answer to the same question four times, know where they are going to eat so they bring enough money (maybe then I won't get the question "How much is the soup?" or "I'll get the lemonade but, are there free refills?, cause otherwise I'll just get water."), and/or choose their dining establishment according to their lifestyle... i.e. if you are a vegetarian, have fussy kids, have crazy food allergies, or aren't that hungry don't even think about the cake.
The money is not worth the time. Putting in forty hours a week in a corporation that nets a billion dollars in a fiscal year should not result in a server (me) coming home on any given day with 15 dollars in his or her pocket.
If the yearly weather report for the city of Chicago indicates that the month of May has a frequent pattern of rain, wind, and cool (sometimes cold) temperature, do not set up an outdoor area for people to eat. It is not cost effective when it is shut down 20 out of 31 days of the month with the labor costs and its just mean to taunt customers in winter coats with the possibility of enjoying their tamale cakes under the Chicago skies.
The end of May and a small film by some former UT kids allowed me to spend some time in Madison. I have heard the "grass is always greener" expression and found it to be true a lot of the time but I think it can happen multiple times with the same thing. I was excited to leave Milwaukee for college in Madison but desired to get back to Milwaukee around Christmas time only to yearn to be back to Madison shortly there after. I felt that I had gotten everything out of the city between the lakes and headed to the exciting new city of Chicago but every chance I get I want to be back to Madtown.
I think I am crazy, restless, and confused at the moment.
I have no thoughts.
