I got a Fast Pass!

I can take bart and muni anywhere now cause the month is paid for :)
Totally new and dorky, I know. But I like being a dork and I like being new to the city. Haha stupid Bob, this guy I work with told me he saw me walking to work on Monday, my first day, and I had my map out and was looking around. He said he ignored me because I looked way too nerdy, even though he knew it was me.
My new job is okay. I like getting to work much better now although I know there will be times where I wish I could just take my car. Like when it's raining, considering it's about 30 minutes of walking. But I'm enjoying it so far. I think Monday I was bitter, there was no way this new place would be a good as my family at No Name. But I went in there and was happily met by Sam, a former but now current, coworker. And guess what? I wasn't on veg station, I was in charge of composed salads, salads containing meat. Huh? yeah...
Had to let that soak in for a minute and got in one argument with Bob when I was cooking bacon and I said it was disgusting, I think it surprised a few people, but they seemed to be impressed by me for standing up to Bob. So I came to terms with the whole meat thing. Not happy about it and avoid it at all cost but when it comes down to me making a huge deal or just getting my job done without complaining I'm gonna just do it. This is a fesh work environment and I'm trying to make it enjoyable, meaning I'm taking Cory's advice and trying not to let people figure out how to get to me. I have been working my ass off. I'm really trying to impress. I want nothing but good things said about me and It's fun working hard. Yeah it is only salads but there is 3 that change everyday and I am on my own for all my prep. I'm actaully really enjoying working on my knife skills, especially when I get to look up out the window with a beautiful view of the bay bridge, palm trees and water!! It feels like vacation :) Gabe, my new sous chef, (umm who is very nice to look at) asked me where I wanted to be in the kitchen, I told him veg, of course and he said I'd be there as soon as he figured out a switch, within a month. By Friday I went up to him and told him I wanted to stay on composed salads. He kinda laughed at me until I explained my reasoning... -I want to write the menus without stepping on toes, as it would be if I moved to veg, -I like where my station is, I'm facing the windows instead of the wall and I'm right next to Sam in our little corner, instead of next to Bob, if I moved to veg, Thursday Sam brought his ipod and him and I listened to AFI, Feist, and Rilo Kiley all day -I also like composed salads because I'm working alone and the veg team seem to work slow, I don't want to slow down. Gabe seemed to be okay with me staying on composed salads. He's been cool towards me, I can tell he was told to take care of me, although I'm trying not to be privelaged by working as hard and fast as I can. Overall it's not that bad working there and I think it will only keep getting better.
