I am a bartender at a pretty laid-back restaurant. I'm not poor and I pay my bills, but I certainly don't make a lot of money. It's a pretty slow place with lots of regulars; we really don't shake things up too much around there. Daily I encounter mediocre tips and guests with bad attitudes, but there is no place I'd rather be!! The people I work with are awesome(they include my best friend and her mother) and I love being around them. My work buddies are always good for a laugh, and you can always count on them to talk badly with you when somebody gets on your nerves: ) We go out, we hang out, and we're ALWAYS there for each other. Most of the people I work with are now some of my really good friends.
I recently got out of a long-term friendship that went sour, and it's good to be surrounded by people you know are REALLY there for you and really have your best interest at heart. I'm not one to be attached to people, but I know my life would be different if just one of them were removed from the equation.... Brittany, Dana, Jazz, Karen, Dominique, Tiffani, Tiffany, Taucia, April<---- we may not be rich, and sometimes we can't stand that place, but I wouldn't have it any other way if it meant I never would have met you. I'm thankful to have such a wonderful group of women in my life who keep it real and know what the true meaning of friendship is. I know I am truly blessed.
