For the first time in my life, I have a summer job -- other than babysitting. I'm two days into it, and I really don't know if I am cut out for it. I've only had the crash course in running and hosting so far, and hosting is a piece of cake. But I feel like I don't understand the running, mainly cause the guy who trained me is really chill and has only worked there for like, 2 weeks. Basically, he didn't really know what he was doing either. Also, if you know me, you know that I don't drink, and I probably won't when I am 21 either. Therefore, I don't know my liquors, mixed drinks or brands of alcohol. We have to know every kind of alcohol that they carry. How am I supposed to learn that? I have a test on Friday. Pass fail. haha. Something tells me I'm going to fail.
Plus, all my coworkers talk about is sex and getting smashed. Once again, two things that I can not relate to, nor do I want to. People ask off on Sunday mornings, but it's not to go to church. It's to nurse their hangovers. I know that this would be a great place to try to bring people to Christ, but I already feel like everyone thinks I'm lame cause I don't smoke, drink, cuss and hook up with random people (well, anyone.)
One good thing, is this is really making me appreciate my awesome friends. It seems like a lot of the workers only have their coworkers as friends. One of the kids just turned 21 today (well, tomorrow... they're going out at midnight) so most everyone is going drinking with him. I was like, man. I'm so glad that I have legit friends who I can hang out with and not drink. I dunno. This job is just already stressing me out. I'm sure I'd be fine if I only got customers like my family, but I know that's not going to be the case.
Anyway.
Time to go read the Bible, cause I'm reading through it chronologically this summer with some 50 + cool kids from Aletheia :)
