Crying; it's just what girls do

Good News! I have a new job, I am working at a new restaurant and not so good news, my first day actually serving led to me crying. It is not as bad as it seems, the shift was 9 hours long and I didn't eat during it, hunger makes me very cranky and my feet were super sore so I had a little cry when I got home. It's what girls do. So far I am impressed with the owner but think that when she isn't there things work a little different so that will be something I need to get used to. It is a very different environment than what I have experienced before; firstly I am not allowed to hang out at the place I work. I usually eat my supper and have a drink after shift but this isn't possible at my new employer. If my friends come in I can't serve them, the restaurant is very professional, a little uptight but I think it will be good in the long run.

During my training we did some food sampling, which led to the end of my Vegan experiment. It was a great try but I am not able to do it properly because I'm too lazy. I really missed eggs and cheese, the meat wasn't as missed.

Tomorrow is my second shift and I hope I can keep my cool a little better this time, I'm trying to figure out if I should bring food or just demand a break. It's a fine line with a new job, getting what you want and not complaining because you are new. Lots of little rules that take forever to figure out and each employer is different.
