Things You Are Stoked On But Not Stoked On

[MOE SYZLAK]

So I work in a kitchen, I have been stepping in as lead cook ( since they fired the guy who was lead cook) . Anyway our deli girl just walked out and a catering that calls for 20 sandwiches got moved from Thursday to tomorrow morning. We have a manager who is fairly new. It's kinda fun watching her crack under the pressure. She is on the slicer sweating her ass off because everyone else is busy doing their own work.
We have been pretty short staffed for a while now so I'm pretty used to it. I was the guy catching everything and making sure it all runs smoothly but now that I'm nailed down into a position I can't. I feel bad that she is stressing out but I am enjoying the show.

^ i also work in a kitchen and just found out one of the managers thinks i'm ready to train for the line cook, broil side. I've only been and expo/dish washer for about 6 months. i'm stoked but also nervous. usually you work your way up from fry side then to mid and finally to broil.

Dope I hope the transition goes well for you. I started out on the grill 3 years ago now I run the night shift. All you have to do to kill it is give a shit.

I'm moving back to San Fransisco, without much money saved up...going to have to be frugal, start walking more dogs through Wag in my spare time, pick up a second job, and keep working towards becoming a web developer. It's going to suck for the next year or so, and I know I'm going to have to cut back on time I spend skating/fucking around. At the same time, it's one of the few places where I feel happy, without wanting to get fucked up. Plus, I really hate Texas.

have a pretty sick construction/framing job right now. Never done much framing or anything. Done lots of construction. But my boss expects me to know so much shit. Stoked on the job for sure.

Power's been out since Irma hit and is expected to come back on overnight. I bet it sucks but I wouldn't know because first thing after the storm passed I hopped on over to the universal resorts and may never go home.

I've hung out with this lady twice but still no ass. so far all i've gotten was a really awkward kiss. i stood up all night with her drinking md 20/20 and bullshitting. she seems cool but i don't think it's going anywhere.

What flavor of maddog was it

Blue barber comb gel?

md 20/20 is most likely watered down barbicide, it was orange, that's all i recall. still amazed i didn't get any with the md invovled. the last time i drank md with lady she gave up the anal

The last time I drank md 20/20 with a woman she drank most of it on the way to the bar then vomited all over the floor of the bar and me before passing out

Framing is basically a fun math class where you actually use this math in real life instead of learning the quadratic formula for no fucking reason. So just look at it like math. If you are good math you should have no problem with it, if you aren't, fuck it you can use you a calculator. My teachers encouraged that because they always said "no one is going to tell you you're not allowed to use a calculator on the job"

Awesome, good luck! If you had any love for cooking outside of work you'll be fine! To be honest I skipped even the dishwash and went straight onto saute/grill sections, although admittedly at first in shitty restaurants. If you already know the basic differences between good and bad cooking you just need to learn efficiency & timing to be an absolute machine.

Not stoked: I'm seeing out the last weeks of a job while waiting for a new opening. Day to day I'm often super bored and finding it difficult to properly care about everything in the kitchen in the way I did before I had plans to go. Current place has also hired a bad bunch of youngbloods that seem to forget everything anyone shows them in a day or two and can be dangerously dumb.

Stoked: I have the freedom to order pretty much anything I want to play around with as the chef is tied up with babysitting morons and mountains of paperwork. Its nice to have this freedom to get a bit creative/ experiment with ingredients I'm not that familiar with. Also all the staff seem to enjoy the tastings that I put up every so often & I get a broad spectrum of feedback on anything I make which is often very instructive.

All in all I can't complain, I just feel like I'm on pause, waiting for the next thing to start.

Yesterday I was flying to vietnam in a work trip with my colleagues but then I was blocked on the airport because of some issues with the visa. I had the shittiest day ever because of it, really stressful since I had to deal with last minute problems all by my own (which I was clueless how to resolve) Now I finally got in and am flying in less than 2 hours. Its not a direct flight anymore but hopefully everything goes fine.

I'm in the beginning phases of buying my first house. It's really exciting to think that I might own my own fucking house in a few months, but it's super overwhelming. The market in my area is super high too and there are not really a lot of decent, liveable homes in the price range I can afford. Almost anything affordable gets picked up and flipped and I don't have the experience or the money to do that kind of work to a house.

I got one of those Tikka Masala dinners from Trader Joe's...enjoyed eating it, but not shitting it...constipation+diarrhea.

[Spaghetti Croc69]

- went to my local (non-skate) park after my boy went to day care yesterday for a roll and got kicked out by some workers who were cleaning up after the recent typhoon

+ went back to work/ did some errands and then returned to said park and had a session once the workers had gone home

[wheelies]

Order 100mg of shit, my mans seends me 623mg. instead 

So make my little 50ml bottle, check n c the next day and the rest of the bag is gone. I could have swoered back of ps2 was mom proof. sheeeyit.

ok, so i'm a 40 yr old unemployable jerk and i harvested some weed today [3 plants] and i'm an artist so i stenciled some weed all over one of rusty's hoodies i inherited. it's looking good and i'm feeling about that do-gooder life, that altruistic full on rapist shit. i'm gonna skate to the aids place/needle exchange [they're 2 places but their backyards go ass to ass].
i'm gonna volunteer and make my town a slightly better place, right?
nah, i get self conscious about my weed hoodie but no way am i turning it inside out. it's like a challenge to myself to wear some childish all over print FA hoodie except it's diy weed.
so i end up skating the diy next to the aids/needle center.
on the way home i seen a girl that was on my dick but i blew her off cause when my skate habit's on me i don't care about pussy. i give her the nod.
so i'm at home thinking 'i'm gonna fuck that girl. or another one. i don't care if i have to pay for it!'
but then i jerked off to lily allen and now i don't know if i'm gonna feel the need.
this isn't the first time lily allen has goddamn cockblocked me either.

[shark tits]

heh, you're prolly right guy.
stoked on skating and talking to ladies last night. not stoked, i didn't kickflip into any pussy.
my neighbor kid who can't ollie [not the salvadorean kid, he's good] skates by and tells me he may have cancer in his leg. he's kinda got that white boy thug front that comes w/ my neighborhood but he just seemed really fragile when he told me that. i tried to make some jokes about quitting smoking but shit is fucked. he grew up around the corner so it's not environmental like powerlines.
stoked on people calling my yard 'a farm' but not stoked on i can't get any help working the land.
stoked to chip in at the diy but not stoked i haven't built my own spot in a dog's age.
stoked on soul asylum

[wheelies]

Up at my Mom's for the weekend. Been eating a ton. Her husband likes to watch Fox News during dinner. There was a few times I couldn't contain my laughter. Not stoked I had to tell my mom I didn't care what she thought about Kaepernick because she's a 60 year old white lady.

Weed is legal here. Going to hit the shop tomorrow for some gummy bears and topical creams.

Any time I'm at my mom's house I get to totally shatter her Fox news world and I love it. I also drop the "well you're in your 70s so is what you think important?"
