feverish

i have a bit of a bug. in fact i am wretched sick. i tried to call into work and get someone to replace me. i've had some mild diarrhea, shakes, chills, im clammy and dizzy.

seeing as i spend all day shaking hands like a fucking politician and hugging regulars like nothing is wrong this seems the environment in which one takes a day off when one is sick.

wrong.

so when a person walks in the door and greets me with a hug should i pull away and explain that i am sick before i take their order and man-handle their plates...or do i pretend that im fine, hug them like any other day and knowingly expose them to my illness.

this should not be a question...i should not be at work. when other people are sick i ask them to stay home because I DO NOT WANT TO GET SICK.

bitch, moan, cry and whine

happy new year

tomorrow i'll get paid $.45 more per hour to be used up like an industry whore at a gang bang

after taxes that's 15 extra bucks a month

it's not so bad really...at least i don't have to park an increasingly fat ass in front of a computer while my calves develop purple veins as thick as red vines all the while sporting keds...yes yes it could always be worse.
