signora oye veynot the thrill i expected, but a fine way to pass a saturday evening
I worked with J tonight at the musuem. They had an event there; a birthday party for a former curator. This woman was celebrating 80 years, so you can imagine the average age of the party attendees.
That’s fine; old folks are cool and all. So we weren’t worried that things would get out of hand or that we’d have to intervene in any crazy situations. But the problem is that this museum has a lot of steps. Imagine this combination: old people + wearing their fancy-clothes shoes + drinking a lot of alcohol (according to the bartender) + stairs. I was cringing the whole night. Basically my job was to point out the steps and offer a hand to those who might need it. No one would accept my help, so I had a kick-back night.
So my evening was different than I had imagined it would be, but still I got to hang out with my buddy J and look at a lot of art and do nothing that resembled hard work and still get paid for it. 6 years ago
