Grant!

I’m going to Ottawa again next week. Brrrrrrrrr. And I’ll be in a meeting during Remembrance Day ceremonies so I won’t even get to see Parliament HIll in action. But, any requests?

How am I celebrating Christmas Day? I’M GOING TO STARBUCKS.

AND HOW ARE YOU CELEBRATING? YOU’RE WORKING AT STARBUCKS!!!

Sad.

I worked at a Starbucks for a miserable two weeks in November 2007. I remember the manager putting up a bulletin on the incorrigibly chirpy bulletin board saying “Want to work on Christmas Day? Earn triple time!”, with five slots for employees to write their names. Half an hour later, my co-workers were fighting over who could get the last shift. A couple had even come from home, just to get their name on the sheet.

I don’t want to say that Starbucks is soul-sucking - that would imply that they have something meaningful or at least substantial to offer - but I do think that working there implies soullessness. Or at least a complete lack of personality. How else could someone be so interested in giving up their Christmas Day for $27/hr?

when i started at starbucks, i was a shift supervisor working a mix of opens, closes and mids in a brand new city, vancouver. working christmas eve or christmas day was a way to get out of working new years eve or new years - that’s just the nature of the beast in retail. when i worked a mall job we had no say in opting out of midnight closes and had a blackout on booking vacation for the month of december.

anyways, those that work christmas are usually the students or fresh outta schoolers who can’t afford to fly home (that was me!) or people who don’t celebrate christmas. the triple rate and the tips people left that day were worth it, even for celebrating the day with regular customers and strangers alike.

and well, i still work here: five years, four positions and two offices later. and, i don’t think the soul has been sucked out of me? no hard feelings mark!

My advice to you today. And by you, I mean me.

indefensible:

Sometimes just making a decision is more important than weighing up all the options and then making the right decision. Because a lot of times ‘now’ is better than ‘perfect’.

Taking a page from Jen’s cookbook.

Pear, walnut, fig, rosemary, parmesan and blue cheese pizza. Mmm. Looks like it’s going to be a pizza week.

I nearly forgot about snowboard season (aka the one thing that stops SAD from completely taking over during the winter months).
