There are so many times throughout the day when I think of something, and I then tell myself, "that would make a good blog topic." But chances are... and by chances I mean...this moment right now, when I get to actually writing the blog, I totally forget every one of those topics. Usually they are going to be less topics and more rantings about how girls wear underwear in public but call them shorts, or how rude and disrespectful anyone under the age of 18 is now, how out of shape I am, how being married is, why we are all addicted to Barro's Pizza...... or how apparently people with the most money always want everything for free.
Let me explain that last one.. I work at a place where our average guest (I work at a resort) is an American Express Centurion card holder. If you aren't quite sure what that is... its a black indestructible American express card, and you make big bucks if you have one. For example.. the owners of Johnson & Johnson who were in a couple weeks ago.. the owners of all things baby, they have one, their son has one.. their dog walker probably has one. They flash around their black American Express cards like its no big deal. With that being said.. these types of people... ALWAYS want stuff for FREE! No wonder the rich stay rich... they don't actually have to pay for anything! I am a reservations agent for a resort here in Arizona that caters to the rich and famous. Literally... if you are rich and famous.. chances are I will be seeing you lounging around the pool at lunch time. The people that don't even bat an eye when you tell them their 3 night stay is going to be $2,000, or if they prefer one of our private homes it will be $3,000 a night... which they stay for a week or so... We have many people call, I've talked to them all. I need to start blogging more of my stories from the rich and famous.
Typical conversation
Me: "my greeting."
Guy: Hello there! I am in town for the NFL owners meeting and my good friend Larry Fitzgerald said I had to come eat at your restaurant while I was in town.
(I also take reservations for our restaurant on property)
Me: Absolutely! what time were you looking for?
blah blah blah
I get his name... I google said guy.. hes the vice president of operations for.. falcons.. ravens.. something that flies.
No.Big.Deal.
Hes an example of a nice guy. Which there are many.. there are so many NICE people.. but some.. not so nice... some are rude...and some, they just want everything.. and they want it all for freeeeeeeee!
Next time someone asks for something free, I am gonna tell them to give me something! its only fair..
Anyway, Just a little tid bit about the job that consumes my everyday life.
So Collin and I are trying to eat healthy. Today was day 1... We were also going to start Insanity, that work out that's apparently Insane. We got all the disc from the sis to start our cute little 60 day funness working out healthy eating thing.
Problem #1... we still have ice cream IN the freezer.
Problem #2... I played volleyball for 8 hours yesterday with my sisters competitive adult volleyball team and today I felt like a mix of a 90 year old woman and like I walked around with 78 extra lbs on my back yesterday.. even my fingers hurt while typing this.... (obviously this is only further proving I need to start working out because I am THAT out of shape).
So, needless to say... Collin had a great fitness test, while I cheered him on limping around the kitchen making a "healthy"dinner.
So day 1... not as successful as I would of liked. On the plus side.... the ice cream is THAT much closer to being totally finished. I might be sore for one more day.
Peace out Girl Scouts.
It takes a special person to deal with the rich and famous. I have so little patience for stuck up people. Also, every topic you mentioned is worthy blog material. I've found myself literally leaving voice notes on my phone to help me remember stupid and funny crap I see every day.
