Trust me, it really was *such* a good place the first three years. Things took a turn for the worst last year after the head chef left :(

I'm not sad for leaving it now, as it is, but more so for the fact that it's not the same place it was when I started?
And I'll miss the regulars, but thankfully it's such a neighborhood area I can easily go pop into another restaurant on the street to see them

Oh lord
It has been sent 💀🤞
 Hades
10:34:02 
Spookybeast, oh no! Don't take it as a value judgement. I'm sure there's *something* at that job that potentially would have got me but I just didn't stick around long enough to find out.

Keeping a job that sounds... frankly, pretty chaotic for that long is super admirable though.

Are you a bit sad about leaving?

LMAO
In my defense
That was my first time crying in that position since I started, as a highschooler

Otherwise I would've chewed out every coworker I had about who was supposed to be taking care of the book when I'm not there X'D

Coolio perfect!
It's always odd looking with weekend shifts >>

 Hades
10:30:24 
Spookybeast, see? That was my issue. All of the other hosts were *really* sensitive and would cry so people were a lot less harsh with them.

I couldn't cry about that sort of stuff even if I wanted to so people were always emboldened to be so much worse to me, HAHA. Like I assure you sir, if I could muster up some feels about this, I'd feel them just for you. <|3

10:29:15 
Spookybeast, yep, think so. Threw me for a loop for a second too.

Omg I had a six top walk in for a reservation that wasn't in the book

I straight up cried and they felt so bad they went across the street💀
 Hades
10:27:28 
Spookybeast, I'm the same, unfortunately. I always talk big game about jobs but I kind of pride myself on being able to stick out what others can't and customers at my job always *loved* me.

But uh, yeah. Feel you there. Or when people wouldn't write down reservations for significant parties (like 20+) and then they'd show up asking for their table and I had to tell them it would be a 2 hour wait because no one took them down. .-.

Send it! I'm sure it'll feel like a massive weight off your back as soon as it's done.

Someone help me do a quick math check >>

If I'm working Friday + Saturday
And two weeks from today is Thursday, the 21st,
That means my last day would be the 16th?

@Hades

I stuck around because we have some regulars and they made it slightly bearable
But yeah this past week was ... God
ToT
People were writing 7:00 reservations before 5:00???
Like I don't even know how you mess up that bad
It screwed up the whole night

Sending my message to the boss man now X"D
 Hades
10:22:33 
Spookybeast, I would give a 5 seconds notice at that rate.

Ohhh... yeah, as soon as you said host, I knew. My most recent job was a hostess job, HELL. Complete hell. But I still stuck it out for a year and some change.

... I quit because my job was deplorable and I still never had to do that. Step-by-step instructions, are you for real?

What was the final straw if that wasn't? xD
 Spookybeast
10:22:23 Will
Omg also we don't get tips at the end of the night anymore
They're put into our paychecks

@Hades

Honestly considering like... Maybe a one weeks notice because I've put up with so much

I'm the hostess

I had to buy reservation book paper myself and write step by step instructions for how to, you know, use the reservation book :')
I was so close to walking out one night


Oof that's awful though T-T

All the time people are advertising their avatar business, however often the pricing is way over the top. In this ongoing guide, you’ll learn how to create your own avatars.

Step 1.
Find a program.

The toughest part of avatar making is finding a good program, that you can afford and figuring out how to use it. I recommend Pixlr (which is a free online version of Photoshop) if you don’t have money, and don’t want to download something. Gimp is another free program, which you have to download, however gimp is best for drawing rather then photo manipulation. Gimpshop, also free and downloadable, is a spin off of gimp that has more photoshop-like qualities. Any of those program can be used for creating avatars, and found by searching their names in google. If you are serious, and have a little money, about avatar making/graphic design, I would highly recommend investing in Photoshop CC or Photoshop elements(just a suggestion).

Here is a general list of available graphics programs:

Step 2.
Play around with the Program.
The best way to learn is to do. Try opening images, creating new files and playing around with the various tools of whichever program you choose. As all the programs are different I cannot make tutorial for all of them, but if you google how to do _____ in _____ you should find simple tutorials.

Step 3.
Make an Avatar.
Once you get (kind of) familiar with your program it’s time to start your first project.
I recommend starting with a resized image(that fits WP standards for avatars) and just adding a line of test or two. Once you have that you can add some filters, add in another picture or different effects till you have something you like.

Choose the direct link from the different link types you are given to choose from, and upload that link into the section you upload your avatar with on your account page

Make sure you're uploading it to an image hosting website and using the direct link it gives you.

I also recommend Ibis paint x which is a free mobile device
It includes a range of amazing brushes and effects that are easy to use

To unlock some you need to watch one video, when you do this you unlock all locked brushes fir 18 hours

TinyPic - www.tinypic.com
Postimg - http://www.postimg.cc

I think these two are also very commonly used by WolfPlay players :)
