I'm so into that coat, it's just perfect.

...What is the link to this blog? Asking for a friend.

If someone asked me for my email address, I think I'd tell them we're not hiring at the moment. Isn't that what email is for?

As a weird cost cutting measure at my school, sex ed was taught by the food technology teachers. They were both middle aged women who were unbelievably frank, alternating lessons between showing us contraceptives and showing us how to cook an omelette. At the time, it was pretty horrific/embarrassing, but now that I'm…

At my restaurant we had standalone high chairs or booster seats that attached to the chairs. Since we couldn't put a booster seat in a booth and the standalone high chairs blocked the walkways, we couldn't seat parents in a booth. So many 'I'll just hold the booster in place!' or 'you can work around them, can't you?'

Wouldn't that start some sort of Gomez/Grande feud?

This! Also, the restaurant I worked at bought a specific restaurant dictionary (I think it was called Eat Your Words, maybe?) which helped heaps.
