<br />
Seattle, he's just not into you.

      <![CDATA[Yes, I would rather have a job. Even though Dale never once used my name, called one of the other servers a bitch when he thought she was taking out the wrong salads (she wasn't,) told the hostess not to wear her glasses to work because she sparkled more without them, required us to wear heels despite the blatant L&I violations and lord knows what else, I would still rather have a job. Even a shitty job where my sexist boss tells me to go "make myself pretty and flirt with those customers!"<br />
<br />
I'm not sorry to see it go. I am sorry to see myself and the rest of the girls (yes, entirely female staff) who I had grown fond of over the past two months suddenly kicked to the curb.

      <![CDATA[I had dinner there about a month ago. The food was decent, but we were literally the only ones in the place the entire time, and the lady who poured our water was a relative that was asked to fly in from Spokane on a few hours notice to help. <br />
<br />
We were all making jokes that it wasn't long for this world. Little did we know.
