Heya,
Well the mopney is good if you get in the right place. I make anywhere between $100 - $400 a night in cash. But that is because I have six years of experience. I'm not a fan of bartending schools - I think that they prey on the idea that most people think that when they get out they will be making tonnes of cash - and they end up remaining unemployed.
Your best bet? I would say get an entry level position. Coat check, hostess, etc. If you prove yourself they will train you either as a server or a bartender. Hit College Street - its patio season, and I know that they are hiring tonnes of servers.
Its a lot of bullshit though - as you may gave guessed from my last post - you need a thick skin - it's number one prerequisite to survive.

hi cianne, thanks for the note, I certainly had planned to celebrate, but as usual my plans went to the shit. Anyways, how are things with you?

I'm very bad at ending friendships. Probably for the same reason that I never finish the last book in a series or watch the last episode of a TV series... I hate it when things end. Familiarity and inertia are so comforting.

The glabrous Mister Taylor and I have known one another since second grade... We met on the playground at school when we were seven... We've known each other all through childhood... We were pretty much the only people who'd talk to one another in school-- both over-literate, anti-social, desperately trying to escape the culture and locale we were in.

Hee! You have to watch quite a bit more of Season 5 to understand the Buffy's little sister part. :-D And yeah, Riley is annoying, but this too shall pass. ;) And I hate to do this to you, I *really* do, but I've had people reading my livejournal that really shouldn't, and I hate to do it, but it's now under lock and key. What you *could* do, since livejournal has done away with invite codes, is make a livejournal, and I'll friend it, and as long as you stay logged in, you can still see all the entries? And yes, I do have to make everything more complicated for everyone. I sowwy. :(

Hey there! I just wanted to tell you that you are not alone in the cherry-flavouring-hatred thing. I swear, with all the advances in medicine and technology and all that jazz, surely someone could have come up with another flavour than cherry or original? And why cherry? What is wrong with lime, or strawberry, or any other goddamn fruit other than cherry? Hmmmmmm, maybe that will be my next mission...a delicious flavoured cough medicine...I'll keep you posted ;)

OK, see, Ci, this is just not cool. I'm trying to read all of the most recently updated diaries on my Buddy List (obviously, one of them being yours), and so I click on your diary in order to accomplish this seemingly simple task, and guess what I find? Guess what I find, Cianne? I've been LOCKED OUT!! After an entire year, I'm "not authorized to access the document requested." IMetPatricia has been tossed aside--no password, no username, no nothin'. 'Tis a sad, sad day for ol' Taylor. :-) I'm just kidding. I'm quite delirious at the present moment. Seriously, though, I would love to continue reading your entries, if you don't mind sending me your username/password. Sign my book and lemme know, wouldja? Gracias, mi amiga. Oh, and by the way, I'm glad you enjoyed my little inner-monologue in today's entry. Hahaha. I can be rather extreme from time to time, don't ya think? :-) Take care, dude.

Hey there! Responding to your note...cool to hear from another MOIST/David fan here on Dland :D (I run diaryrings for both, if you want to check them out) David's new solo album, Hallucinations, is due out September 9th, and the new single "Time Of Our Lives" is just hitting the charts now...he and the band are playing some sporadic shows this summer to gear up for the promo. Jeff's solo project band, Rye, has an album due for release in a couple months. I'm working on their official site right now. :) There's probably more but I'll stop babbling here...take care!

A school voucher is when the state, instead of determining what school a child goes to by district, allocates the amount of money that would be spend on the childs education, and allows the parents to decide what school they will go to. This can include private religious schools. I support it because, A. I think parents should get to make decisions like that. B. most private schools are less expensive than public schools are right now. and C. if the tax dollars didn't automatically go to the district schools, schools would have to work harder, more effeicently, and maybe my sons school wouldn't blow dogs for quarters, and if it did, I would be able to take him out.

Damn - she got to you before I did. Yes, anyway, we're locking up. But you can use the same username and password to access both of our diaries. Just wanted to stop by and let you know :) Have a great day!

imetpatricia : |

Hi Cianne. I'm getting ready to lock my diary, so I just wanted to send you a quick note with the password and username. Anytime you want to access my diary, just type in "imetpatricia" (in all lowercase letters) as your username and "tayandjo" (also in all lowercase letters) as the password. Don't worry, we haven't had ANOTHER piano player diary-reading episode on our hands, but seeing as we keep getting Google hits for piano-bar-related-songs and that kind of stuff, we feel like we'd rather be safe than sorry. I don't think Jody's had the chance to lock hers yet, but I'm sure she'll e-mail you with her username and password and stuff whenever she gets around to it. Anyway, I just wanted to pass that news along to you. And, oh yeah, don't worry about deleting this entry from your guestbook or anything. We're not so much concerned about Diaryland as we are about Google, since it was the source of our problems last time!! Anyway, just wanted to let you know. Have a great day!! Take care!!

I'm a conceptual person... I have no physical skills or grace whatsoever. And I once didn't go to a major job interview because when I drove downtown to the high-rise where the firm had a floor...there were no (free)parking lots, and I can't parallel park-- or never have even once since I learned to drive all those years ago.

Cianne, be careful about not thinking that she can find your diary. There's a very good reason I had to lock my diary: people who never should have found it read it and got very, very upset. Actually, they didn't read mine, they read Taylor's - but you get the point. Just wanted to tell you to be careful, since you mentioned something about it.

Why is it that I always read your diary but never leave a note? One of my quirks, I suppose. Anyway, I just read your entry from today (or, well, I guess technically it would be yesterday's entry), and since you sounded like you were pretty down in the dumps, I thought I'd send you a note, wishing you a happy birthday and telling you how sorry I am that you didn't have a better day. Hope tomorrow makes up for it. :)
