Jobs, sushi, and turkey sandwiches.

What a loooong hunt today. We left our place at around 11:30 a.m., and didn’t get home till 4:30 p.m. What happened in between? Well, Lisa got talked into taking a job she wasn’t really sure she wanted(see her blog), and I dropped off resumes at a couple of restaurants. Specifically, The Keg and this locally renowned seafood restaurant Joe Fortes. I got an interview at The Keg and they pretty much told me that I had no chance of becoming a server there anytime soon, but I could start as soon as I wanted as a busser and a dishwasher and work my way up. Thing is, I need some fresh new threads to work front of house(which is what I want) but I have NO money for that kind of thing. Hmmm…

Joe Fortes on the other hand seemed like a waste of resume. I just got that vibe. I also have an interview tomorrow morning at the Cactus Club for a position in the kitchen, so I’m gonna see how that unfolds before I make any decisions. However, on the very bright side, I do have a job now, though hopefully I can find something else soon…I start dishwashing tomorrow at a hip little independent restaurant about 5 minutes away from our place. Thats tomorrow night at 5, but I’m going to head to granville island sometime in the middle of the day and hand out resumes there. Thats where Lisa is going to school! It would be sweet if I could score a job there.

Anyways, on our way home tonight we stopped at Sakara Sushi for this sweet deal…are you ready for this? $6.95 for 18 pieces of sushi and a bowl of miso soup! Back in sucker-town that gets you 6 pieces of maki at Tokyo Express. It was so awesome, and I had the best piece of fatty tuna sushi I’ve ever had…*drool*.

We got home around 4:20, and just PASSED OUT. Seriously, we slept for about three hours. We were exhausted. I woke up around 7:20 to Lisa in the kitchen cooking dinner. We had delicious cucumber salad, and turkey sandwiches. It was so good in fact, I’ve decided it needs its own blog entry. Check back soon for more on that! Right now, I have to take care of the dishes said meal created. 

Later!
