It was a quiet day at Hooked- I could have finished at 3, but stayed on until 4, so the end half hour was spent just chatting to Avery because he's going to a couple of techno events over the next couple of weeks. Alice and Mia were supposed to be going for lunch at Veggie Bar, which is a few doors down from Brunswick Street Hooked, but Alice got into town too late to do so before Mia had to start back at work, so I just met up with them for coffee at a cafe cal...

The only things I can think of to report from today was that it was slightly annoying that no-one had brought new window cleaner, duck toilet cleaner and Jif cream when it had ran out, so my deep clean of the Hooked toilets was a bit delayed, and later on at Sienna, Lucy had put Aggie training me (presumably this had been done before yesterday). Arnie said I didn't really need that much training, except I should try and share my attention to all my customers, as ...

I didn't know whether I was supposed to write a letter of resignation or not, so texted Caroline who said just tell Lucy, but I needed Alice t...

Today I went with Mia and Lucas into town, to meet up with Samia, Victoria and Goffrey (all housemates) for lunch. I suggested Chinatown, and so we went to a Yum Cha place, which is a bit like going to a sushi bar in the way that you pick things up, from trolleys instead of a conveyor belt, and then just pay at the end, except it's more communal so that you all eat each other's food. My favourite dishes were the steamed pork buns (like the ones I used to go crazy...
