MJ's Zero to 5000 in No Time Flat!

[jesserin]

Jeez. That would have freaked me out too! What happened with the cops? Did they arrive and straighten things out?

I guess it'll be a while before you head to a Ruby Tuesday again :lookaroun

well... when the police got there the guy was just sitting in his car - he couldn't speak any english whatsoever so they took his cell phone and asked if i wanted to press charges... he didn't hurt me or anything - just scared the dickins out of me... so I told them just to figure out who he was and what he really wanted... RT's paid for our lunch - (btw... i love their salad bar! :lookaroun ) The weird part - is that it's a great neighborhood - and right out in the open - I mean - so open that my family just glanced out the window and saw everything going on! After it was all said and done - it made me feel better that the manager wasn't worried about being politically correct or representing his restaurant in a bad light - he just ran out of there and made sure i was ok... maybe that's the southern chivalry part of the men around here - but as soon as the manager came up I felt safe. He told us to go inside and wait there and he stayed with the crazy guy until the police showed up.

As for going back anytime soon - I love their salad - my mom, sister and I usually eat there at least once a week... it wasn't the restaurants fault that it happend - so yeah - i'll probably be back next week

Jess- two days in a row of maniacal people?!!!!



*removes "scream at Me" sign from Jess' back*

:lol: lmao - that must be it! Something in the water is making outsiders (non-Charlestonians) go crazy around here lately!

 

[jesserin]

Yes it's a very short trip - just a bonus trip we decided to squeeze in to celebrate family happenings!

any chance that bonus trip includes a piece of bonus luggage? say... one big enough to fit me and lizzie?

 

[Nemo14]

Sure! The more the merrier!

Man, that salad must be good :lookaroun

But glad you're OK. And nice to see the manager act like he did. I'm always a fan of people getting involved. Too often today it's "not my problem" with some people.

I hope that guy learned how to *not* ask for directions.

Wow, weirdness abounds in this thread again....

Hugs all around!

 

[Nemo14]

Yes Bonny there is something you can do...

**Hugs**



Really though, I'm feeling a little better... So, I don't know if I explained this part of my internship dilemma. My father is President of the company (I know what you're thinking, have him get me a job)... well my dad didn't have it easy at all growing up, and he worked unbelievably hard to get where he is... in high school he gave me a job at his company doing labor work and such, and then helped me my first summer out of college. Last summer though, he told me I had to do things on my own. He said he'd love to have me work at his company, but he wasn't going to have anything to do about it, so I might with the head of finance, got interviewed, and she hired me. Obviously, I probably got the job because of who I was, but he stays out of my business... Anyways, when I didn't get this job for the summer, the CFO called me dad and told him she thinks the new guy should have work for me, and maybe doesn't realize how much experience I have there... so my Dad contacted me, helped me write up a professional email to this guy trying to sell myself... He said its not definite, but its worth a shot! So... if he bites, I will in fact have my internship back! I'll let you all know how that goes!


About the final, still haven't heard back from the professor, I emailed him, awaiting his word, hopefully I can do something to not get an F in the class... again, my lowest grade in high school or college has been a C+ so I'm really nervous... either way, it'll workout for the best...

Also, my sister knows a manager at one of the Outback's nearby, so I think I'll be getting an interview there incase I don't get my internship back... she can't guarantee me anything there, just an interview which is a start!

Hope everyone else is having a good day! I'll be in and out, got that final tonight at 6:30... I'm exhausted though, I've come down from my 5 coffee, 2 energy drink high...

Joe - Just wanted to tell you that I admire you (and your father) for choosing the right road! Best of luck!

Bonny!

Quick question: would you rather be "Bonny" in the trip report, or MJ's mommy, or MommytoMJM, or that-crazy-lady-with-the-now-auburn-hair?

 

[joanna71985]

Hey Jess. I just saw that you will be in Disney in September. I will be too! Hopefully we can meet up.

Any or all are fine!

Yay! this trip will be without the family for part of the trip so it should be much easier to arrange something!

 

[MommytoMJM]

She isn't meeting up with anyone unless she meets up with me too!!!!!
