Southside Win's!!
The greatest thing just happened. I got to the southside and had some beers and ordered food. There was a shift change with my servers, and now for the great part I had no idea it was going to happen...
I can't tell you how many times I have been somewhere and the server comes to the table, interupts any discution that is going on to let the table know that she/he is finishing their shift and would like to settle up.
I always do (except one time) as serving is a bitch and I'm sure they would like to get any and all tips if there table even leaves one. But It almost always is a huge inconvionce to the table. I would think the next server on would tip out the server past 1/2 the tip or something..
I was at Dustys one sunny afternoon when our servers shift changed 3x when I finaly said No, please transfer the bill to the next server on. we had only been there for 2hr, I can understand 1 change but that was crazy!

First week with a Mac
ok.. first 3 days with a Mac
I purchased a Mac Book Pro last week, I figure it was time I got to know the Mac OS and why not jump in with a $3000 laptop. To be fair I upgraded the ram and the price includes video editing software upgrades.
So far it’s as I expected, out of the box the Mac ran well. Figuring out the file system took a bit of time, not that it’s hard to understand its just different from what I know. I find myself over thinking almost everything I do.
Navigation is killing me, I have not been using a mouse and the no right click is taking some getting use to.. Remember is only day 2.5 or something like that. I keep double clicking the top bar on every widow trying to Maximize or Cascade it.. but with the Mac it minimizes it.. That seems to be something I do often and its driving me a little nuts breaking the habit. I’m also not use to using a laptop keyboard so typing seems to take forever..
I guess these are all things that I will get accustom to, but for now it’s the learning curve that I was expecting. I’ll keep you updated.
