I Wasnt Surprised at All

She rquested to be myh friend and it started off at just that. Told me thru emails that hse doesn't have a mna and isn't married or anything. I commented on her pictures that she has, I admit, they are nice. I didn't say anything wrong or nasty...she did though.

It started with that she would be in my area after Christmas and before New Years. She wanted to see me, I told her that if I had the time I would. Said she staying at a certain hotel and wanted to go to Times Square to see the ball drop. I'm not into that. She thwn asked for my number so that she can send me some pictures, gave it to her. Asked for my email, gave her that too.

Today she texted me, I answered back and then, I could tell it was a guy, talkibg about he is her man and stuff, that he was gonna slpit her head open. This was all in a text message. She sent a text and said that that was her cousin, but I knew better. Then I received a call.

Some cocuntry ass...some guy talkibg about he gonna get me. I let him talk, say his do, and then I hung up. She deleted her profile and everything. WOW !!

My take on the whole matter. She was cheating on him, not physically mind you, but it would've got to that evevtually. She was bored with him and she figure that the inyernet was the easiest way to flirt, test her skills out to see if she still had them; without doibg anything any harm to her man. But he found out and caught her. He probably went thru her cell phone, on her computer, the whole nine. I could hear him yelling at her now. Ithis a waste of time dude, she readibg to leave you, but she likes the support you're givibg her. Or it could be that she is tired of him and his cheating ways.

Its always the cousin. LMMFAO !!!

This is an electric bike that the place I work at uses for deliveries, this thing is fast. Every morning I ride it around the block to get use to riding it. Its been 2 months now, and I'm still not use to it.

I Don't Know Why I....

You know how sometimes you just get so freakin frustrated with people, that you just wanna say fuck it? Well I'm having not a moment, but a whole week like that.

Don't ask me my opinon on somethibg if you're just doing it cause its politcally correct. Ask me cause you really want to know. People are placed as managers to manage other people, employees. But what happens if the manager can't even manage himself? I know of ways to get people to do whatever I want them to do, its no trick, believe me. All I say is why do I need you to do this task, when I'm doing it myself? Then they get to poppin. Like I said, what if its your manager. Here this person is controlling the way I'm suppose to work..well at least what he thinks that works. And he spends less time trying to listen to some input, me, cause I'm out there on the front lines.

What it boils down to is that some people come into money, and or have saved their money and open a business within the food service indudtry, and they take on a person as a manger who has no experince, no knowledge of what a customer wants. All they do it for is for the money, the title of manager. Thatj shit pisses me off.

So where is he getting the food for the new items, not a ditributor, from his old job!! Helpibg them make money. Over the years I aquired contacts who will give me decent below cost on items. But, I'm not willing to share that with anyone just yet. I'm not talkikbg about the drivers of the truck, talking reginal supervisors and the such. They just don't know.

I don't know for the matter.

I Know What I Want...Out of Life That Is.

Most people early on in their life's, start off not knowing what they want. I didn't have that problem. I told myself at the age of 17 that I was going to do whatever I wanted to do, reguardless of what some people may say. This was including family.

I admit, some of the choices, decisions I made were some bad mistakes. They were MY mistakes, no one else's. I lived with them and moved on. If you suggest I do something I willh take a look at what it is, and if its not to my liking I will say something. Please don't try and run my life, tell me how to do things cause your way may not suit me.

As for an relationship, with the oppisite sex.... I'm not living my life thru you and you shouldn't do the same thru me. If you do, you'll find that I will tell you...  Well let just say I will be totally honest with you. You can't change me, what I do, my way of getting things done has worked well for me most of the time. At the times when it doesn't, I guess I have to learn. If you style is laid back, taking your time, I will get there when I get there, the chances of us having any type of relationship is voided.

People, not all of them, but some depend on me. Like those I work FOR. They trust me with their keys to their business and access to their money. So, what comes first in my life is my job. If they depend on me to be where I'm suppose to be at at a certain time, I will be there. Cause you want me to call in or wonder why I have to leave so early, its because I have a job that PAYS me to be there. Cause you're off on weekends and I work weekends have nothing to do with I don't want to be with you. Cause I make it my business to be at work at least and hour before I start...its what I do. Shit happens along the way, trains just stop running, people get sick on them.

Some people dolnt have their priorities straight, well I do. You're not wanting to be with a man who can't. Support himself..are you? Cause if you do, I'm not that man. Stop tryibg to live your life thru me. Stop trying to change me.

....and The Shit Starts.

I use to say that all I have to offer a woman is dick and bubble gum, and I just ran out off bubble gum. I told myself that I have to stop saying that no matter how true it may be. So any and the relationship I'm in now, I explained that even though my job is important to me, its not as important as you are. She said she understand.

I have little over a month at this job, and its new location, Times Square. I make fresh Italian Paninis, not the pressed ones, those are American styled. Its a slicing machine, toaster casher register, evrything you may need. So thwe owner and manager wants to hire new people. The business is taking off here in Times Square. Peopel show up for interview. They are hired but don't show up the next day. I can understand that cause they have sent out countless resumes, the options are open. I have done the same thing many of times. So the business has to keep moving forward and those here, me included, we are back to workibg 10, 12 hour days.

My present girlfriend doeant understand this. Its text saying, well hang with you friend at work then. Its not hanging even though it may seem like it is, its not. Times Square is a tourist area, and part of my job is to be friendly. I'm not faking it either. So she thinks that I'm hanging. I told her that. Here is the deal. I work and I work hard. Being that I had rooms to go home to, I would work hard, rest up for the next day. To go and see the woman I was/am dealing with, on my 'friday' I would leave from work and go to her house. But that's not how it is with this woman.

She doesn't have a place of her own, she pays rent at a friends 3 bedroom apartment. Thing is, the husband don't want her to have her boyfriend spendibkg the night there. I'm not going to get off from work, travel uptown to where she is staying at just to hang in front of the building, that's not me. To tell you the truth, I enjoy sleeping with her, having sex with her. Being that she hasn't been in a realtionship in 7 years, she has fallen hard for me. I don't know.

NYC Marathon...Like I'm Gonna Run Too

Today is the day whe thousands risk heart attacks, broken arms, legs or whatever you get when you beat your body down. I mean, what is it all for? Is it just to say that you've did it. Did want? Push your body to a limit as to where you almost died?  Some people say that they did it so that they csn prove that thewy have what it takes. What.. you have what it takes to be a crazy person. Listen, if you're not going to pay me, I'm not putting my body thru nothing like that.

Each day as I wake up, I find new things that causes me to shake my head in disbelief. I try to think back when I were of a certain age, and no matter what, I've come to know that half the madness that some young adults are doing, I NEVER... the thought of doing what they are doing, never ever crossed my mind.

I know what love is, its when you love youself before sanyone else. So why do some people risk their life and job over some one who could care2 less of you. I listen to my elders, sometimes not right away, but I did. Today nobody wants to listen. Guess things come full circle huh ?

How do you tell a woman that you have and been having great sex with, that that's all you want is just that, great sex with her. I drew the line when she told me that I was her husband. WTF?! I mean was the penis that good. She was fantastic herself, caught myself expressing myself like I have never before but.... I don't call her wifey, naw, I don't play make believe. Oh, its not like I don't like beibg with her. Its just the world that she is in.

Let's say you have 2 grown ass boys. 25 and 27 years old. The 27 yr old one is doing time, to be released in April, but is as of right now, spending his remaining time in The box. The 25 yr old one, got caught up with friends in a robbery. ' I was there, saw what they were doing, but I didn't do anything'. So he claims. You were there and gulity by assocation. Cause you were watching some one getting assulted. Doesn't matter, cause you did nothing to stop it from happening.

Have to do some work now, guess that is why they pay me...right ?

I Don't Know What's.....

I'm getting tired of all the..how can I put this..CRAP !!! From my experience people are not born with bad attitudes, they are created. We as human beings, we do not live on this planet alone. So how can you let some who is so messed up MAKE you feel and act that way too. So what you are saying is that people have THAT much control you? No one controls my feelings, I do that all on my own. Wait, people do create good feelings in me. But that's all they can do.

My job consists of working with the public, customer service, I make sandwiches, espressos, coffee what have you. I have to admit sometimes the occasional pain-in-the-butt rolls thru, but hey, its their problem not mine. And yes, sometimes they think that because they are spending their money they think they can control me, or I HAVE to give them what they ask for even if its not on the menu. I work FOR some one, and he defines what I sell to you, not YOU. I let them know this. See most of them don't or have never worked in this field, they have just been on the receiving end. And then there are some who have had their own business, went out of business and kind of jealous cause of my attitude towards them that is extremely friendly. But I can't please everyone and I tell them I work for some who has defined the rules to me. Most of the time they understand. Most of the time people tell me that they couldn't do what I do. I tell them you treat people like you want to be treated and if they don't, that's on them.

The item I make, I put out that I give to you is something that I take pride in making. Hey, you are putting what I make into your body. And what I make, I put a lot of pride and love into it so that you will enjoy it. That is my main ingredient, LOVE & PRIDE, and it shows. And how do I know you have enjoyed it? Oh, there are a number of ways. One, when its my day off, the next day I look at the numbers, money that was made on my day off. Two, its when you come back and tell me about what I made for you.

Starting a new job, I do a number of things. I look at what the numbers were before I came there. When you hire me, I don't discuss pay. I let you see what I produce, 2 weeks go by before I see my first paycheck. If I like it, I don't say anything. But if I'm not happy with it, I wait another week and I discuss with my employer what I can do for you and what I want to be paid. Its what I want AFTER taxes, my take home as I call it. I have been working with food for over 30 years in different establishments, I think I covered everything from fast food places to gourmet dining to working in mass production, like I've worked on a cruise ship, Norwegian Cruise Lines in Hawaii. I know what I want in an eating experience and its no different from what your average person wants too. Also what I do, I check out the people I am working with. They and sometimes myself, can be a-holes too, we all can be. But you have to recognize this when this is happening and STOP, say you're sorry and move on. But when  see that one or 2 people that I know they as employees have their shit together, I try to put myself right besides them and work as a team with them. Like right now, I'm trying to put together a team, but the Manager doesn't see things they way I see them. The owner does though.

I don't want to manage a place where I work at cause all you do is paperwork and discipline your workers. What type of product are you having them put out if you as a manager is always in their ass about something. After 2 times, they have to be cut loose right, but I can't and won't so that. I've been known to do others work so that they are able to still collect a paycheck.

All I'm saying is this...The next time you go out to eat, look at your server, look at the person who is making your food. Is he or she smiling? If not, question them and ask if they enjoy their job, are they having fun. Then tell them, if they are waiting on you table, making your food, tell them this. I know you are to wait or make my food, but could you please send or have some one in the kitchen that is having fun make my food please? Those exact words...and then tip them a dollar. believe me, that will change their whole attitude. saying that and a dollar changes everything.
