Freedom.

Yesterday, and the night before, I could not sleep. I went to bed around three, which is fairly normal, but I woke up around seven in the morning opposed to noon.
I could not sleep because I could only concentrate on work (Especially Gordon Biersch). I concluded that I needed to quit Gordon Biersch, even though I like their little logo. I wanted to quit because
-I know I could not tolerate the majority of the girls that work there. 
-On the shifts I would be working I would do nothing but stand and seat the few people the few people that walk in. Ultimately being forced to talk to the same girl about partying with hinder or something.
-I like garlic, but I do not like smelling like it.
-On the first day, I was already telling one of the girls what to do.
-It reminded me how much I dislike working in a restaurant. 
-No tips.
-No coffee.
etc.

I woke up at seven, went to starbucks to make sure they didn't hire an additional person. Then made sure I could get my hours back before I quit BG, and left with a coffee. 
I didn't want to go back home so I went to a little park and sat/ thought/ listened to music/ slept until nine. It was so nice, the sun was new and shining but  it was cold enough to wear a sweater and a scarf,  and the album leaf was playing. 
I called and quit, finally. I wouldn't be tempted by her evil ways like I was last time. She was nice about it, and she understood where I was coming from.
I got paid for training. Tight.
