Working on Mothers Day

Last night I went out with friends. I stayed out pretty late. I ended up getting to be around 2:30 am. I had to work today at 10:30. Unfortunate to me I don't remember shutting off my 9 am alarm clock so I woke up at 9:40. I work in Kalamazoo at Olive Garden so I always need to leave at least thirty minutes early. This have me twenty minutes to get ready. This would have been fine had I showered and done laundry the night before. But I didn't. I sprayed my hair with dry shampoo, ironed my uniform from the day before, threw on some makeup, socks, and work shoes. I felt rough and probably looked it too. Normally the restaurant at 11 am but for what ever reason they opened the doors right at 10:30. My whole section was full from 11 until I got my relief at 4:30. I was running my ass off all day long. I felt like it was never going to end. It was also hot and muggy all day long. Since I was already running around I was sweating like a pig. Eventually the managers started to feel the affects of the heat and decided to turn the air on. It started to cool off at one point and as soon as I was feeling comfortable my tables started complaining how "freezing" cold it was. They asked me to say something about the temperature and I told them I would but there was no way I was going to sweat my butt off again. Now you know I told a server lie, sorry. But really I wasn't. I couldn't have been happier when I got my relief though. I was ready to sit down and relax. Not only that but it's mothers day and I wanted to spend time with my mom.
