Jan. 23rd, 2014 03:25 pmI appear to have acquired a second regular gig! One of the other trucks that rents space at our commissary is setting up shop on Boeing campus (as does the pie truck), and none of their current employees could pass Boeing's background check for whatever reason. But I have already passed Boeing's background check! So I'll be working as a cashier and jack-of-all-trades there on Wednesdays for at least a little while.
What's most exciting about that, besides upping my regular number of work shift to four from three, is that Ed expects his employees to be able to do everything on the truck, including cook. I told him I'd never worked in a kitchen before and he said "So you'll learn something!" Even if it's pretty basic line cook stuff like "Flip over this bacon" or "Drop those fries in the fryer," I will actually be learning to cook in what is essentially a very small commercial kitchen. (The truck is HUGE, and it has everything a full-size kitchen has, including oven, grill, griddle, fryer, three-part-sink, etc.)
I could be a real food industry person yet!
Also, this is the second time in the last couple weeks someone has told me I look like a vegetarian, or at least implied they could tell just by looking at/talking to me. What does that even mean??? Is it the blue hair? The short cut? The body type? Because I have known loads of people with colored hair, or short hair, or short colored hair, or skinny body types, or some combination of the above, who were sure as fuck not vegetarian.
