the good and the bad
i hear all the time from people how much they love the place. some people are gushing with compliments. that is one of the best parts of the job. but then there are complaints too. and of course the complaints stand out more than the compliments and i tend to dwell on them and wrestle in my mind ways to fix the problems. i cannot fix all the problems, there will always be good and bad days for everyone, customers and employees. but i do try and learn from mistakes and make the place better. lately i’ve had to deal with a couple complaints and that is the worst part of the job. but, every job has it’s good and bad side i suppose.
satchel’s was busy this week. tuesday wasn’t real busy but wednesday and thursday sure were. tonight, friday, seemed quite slow for a friday night but there was an hour wait most of the night so i’m not sure why we didn’t ever get slammed in the kitchen. things went pretty good. there was one calzone that didn’t get made but i caught it early enough to make it and the customer had to only wait an extra 15 minutes. i had a good time in there tonight. the pies were looking real good.
if there’s one thing i love as much as pizza it is orange juice. lots of nights i’ll be craving that glass all the way home. tonight i think i’ll have 2 glasses. oh man, do i love some 100% pure florida orange juice. when i used to live on a tangerine grove, i would juice fresh tangerine juice and sometimes drink a gallon a day. oh man, you just don’t know how good that stuff was. i could go on about it all night. but i’ll spare you.
things are happening on the LSE site. if you look on the five and dime page you will notice that you can view pictures of some of the novelties/gifts, and florida souviners. there is a contact page now, and a live music link and we have music through august listed currently. keep checking back for more updates. soon there will be a slide show on the home page showing you some old snapshots of the place as we renovated it. when you go, check to see what number visitor you are to the site. that way, in a few years when there’s over a million on the counter you can say i remember when i was visitor 2000 to this site…
good night to all, thanks for eating our pizzas.
