Fogo with Ariel, Amoreina, Suheily, Isa and Mattheus



Jan. 9, 2023: Well first off I definitely had a worse day today than yesterday, but that’s not hard. It would actually be hard to be better. I did have a couple hours where I was really fucking depressed because someone else was promoted to server and given a uniform and clock in number. God I want that to be me. It’ll just take some time. Really wanted to talk to someone tonight, and it might be Mattheus. I didn’t type in my photo everything he told me yesterday, I have it though. Well starting with my notes for today, literally this morning Suheily put something on her story that had only three servers, her Matt and Nikki, so I responded and she asked me to come in. So I did serve this morning. I got 32$ in tips from Suheily, though I didn’t have the 8$ change necessary to get my payment yet. I’ll do it later. Also tonight was kind of cool, even though I didn’t serve. I recognized the couple that always sits at Table 18 and talked to them a bit. They also saw me dropping off some plates of banana and polenta for Brenda and said I’m starting serving. Then afterwards they literally bought me two five dollar roses from the vendor outside. There’s a photo of the roses here too. Both white. Their names were Kai and Mike. I’ll remember them, or at least try to. They never have reservations and they always sit at Table 18, and if not 18 then they sit at 25. There were basically 163 reservations tonight and a weird amount of large parties. I also took my meds at 5pm, and before I’d asked Matt to go on break a little earlier just so I could take my meds earlier. I did also successfully talk to Suheily and Isa on break, aka the photo on the right. At the end of the night I actually had no meat. Just artichoke dip from the party of 20 or 30 in Amazon. Tonight I also listened to Josiah greet a table. He did do a better job than me, though he said he missed offering the wagyu. This morning Isa was also helping to serve and I feel like we did pretty well. I had to answer phones for a bit at 2pm just so Ariel could go on her break. The breaks were and hour today. I went back a tiny bit early just because there were phone calls. Oh also Mattheus came over after work, he didn’t get off til like 10:30. We had a good conversation for sure. I like Mattheus. I learned how to spell his name too. He asked if it was too late when he got off. It wasn’t. We also finished my bottle of wine that I’d gotten at Fogo before the accident. He had a wine key to open it because he was still in his work pants. He said he likes bartending more than serving. We looked at my photos of the day again a bit, including the one I’d done for the day it was, and even played like one phase of phase 10. I told him how Leo had asked me if I believed in God the other day. He doesn’t believe in God either, lol. Literally I just texted myself a few notes. I also told him that I had thought that every day would be a party once I could work at Fogo and he said that you don’t want it to always be a party because it’s not special if it’s always a party. I also learned he doesn’t like lamb. Totally fucking random. I do. Showed him my photo that I’d already done for the day. Talked about being jealous of other people who could serve. He said I’ll get there. Damn I’m out of space. Literally I just asked him at work what he’s doing tonight and asked him to come over. He did. I even showed him the immorality test. Literally just know that because I had it open on my computer. The immorality test was one of my crowning achievements. Made this font smaller so I could fit it all. Way the fuck better than the photos of trash cans, which I also showed Mattheus the day before yesterday. Fogo is definitely going to be what makes me happy, even if every day is not a party. Ah well, I had the bad couple hours in the middle of the day but the day ended well.
