New Years Eve 2013
266 bottles of Barefoot
Bubbly rolled out the door tonight during my three hour and fifteen minute
shift. I could hardly keep the sample cups lined-up, answering questions,
making up my favorites flavors, based on what I was pouring, and having a ball.
I procured a few samples for myself as well as some of the liquor store staff
since we had yet to try a few of the varietals.
A number of already tipsy
customers arrived to select their resupply bottles from my limited options but
they were happy. One woman squealed when I handed her a baby blue rubber ice
cube tray with cute little bare feet cut-outs, for their party hostess. I am
not certain the lady of the house actually got the gift, it most likely never
left the middle man’s purse.
Got 18 out of 18 on my
latest test, halfway through week number 5 and I am already getting nervous for
the final in another weeks time. Normally I forget my first name when I hear,
see, think about the word “test.” Test, test, test. I practice so I am not unjustifiably
reactive. I have done well enough on the exams of the previous four weeks to
feel more confident, if not giddy, about taking the last assessment of the
recently acquired information. Remains to be seen, how I move through life
after this class. My aim is to start another business, make a stab at marketing
myself, so I don’t have to find a real job ever again. I have some ideas to
kick around, resources to do the research, and time to build a plan before
launching it. Will keep you in the loop, my friends.
