Stuff that fries your potatoes with olive oil of HAPPY.

My lady friend (who coincidentally is my ex) makes my potatoes golden brown with happiness. Ahh.

I got a letter of acceptance from KU today via e-mail (I sent in my application last Thursday), which means I got into at least one of the 3 universities I applied to. Score.

Niiiiice. Also on the subject of acceptance, coincidentally Nielsen Media Research called me back just now, they want me to attend a training session (apparently, I got a job!) on November 26th, which is after band- I'll actually have time to work then. Today just keeps getting better.

Today I have "try-outs" at this fancy-shmancy sushi place later today. Dress shirt, etc. Yup. Hella pro shit. Interview went over well, she was like, "Do you have experience in food service?" And I replied, "Yeah, I worked at Straw Hat Pizza and at Carl's Jr." Then she just shook her head and said it wasnt really food service... D.D However, she was really pleased with the rest of my interview questions

anyway, so she said if they were interested in me to expect a call in a few days for try-outs, to really see if I can completely satisfy the customer's needs and stuff. ;] she called me back *later that day* and told me to come in 3 days. Fucking score. Being a waiter + expensive sushi = good tips.

My friend had that same job, basically, tips at sushi places are just disgusting. Apparently tabs at the place he worked were almost always more than a hundred bucks, he made a stupid amount in tips alone, and got 9.25 an hour as well.

[Bobbias]

Only 9.25? Lol. Most jobs around here now that aren't fast food pay at least $10... (nearly everything on the job bank starts at 10 minimum.)

[Zakamiro]

in before "canada > united states"

(which is becoming more and more evident as time goes on)

[Ulti]

Oh, that's because you guys and your canadian dollar haven't figured out that your currency is actually worth as much as the USD yet, and you haven't adjusted. :V

Minimum wage in washington is 7.96 an hour, which is a fuxton higher than most places.

[Bobbias]

Eww, Our minimum is like, what, $9? lol.

[Ulti]

Yeah well, see above statement. Back when your dollar was worth like 85

[Bobbias]

True :/ Until we brought up the minimum wage recently it had been frozen at like, 6.80 for like, 10 years, and the cost of living was quite a bit higher than 6.80, so it was a good thing they finally brought up minimum anyway. However, a strong canadian dollar like we have means that you guys will be getting more canadians going down there to buy stuff, lol. Part of the reason your stuff is cheaper is that there's more buying power in the states. Compare 30 million people to 300 million. Yeah, big difference. With 300 million people you can afford to make things cheaper.

[MortifiedocAlot]

Eww, Our minimum is like, what, $9? lol.

Mine is like 6$, you nigger.

[Shoop Da Whoop]

its 7.50 in California, its going up to 8.50 in a month or so.

[TimJing]

$6.67 here, at least it's higher than the national average :x

[annon]

$5.15 here, thanks to Mexico sharing most of its northern border with us.
