I’ve been working behind a bar since before I was able to (legally) drink alcohol. And while bartending is a great job to have, it kinda sucks when you aren’t getting tipped. Times are tough, trust me I know, but we’ve got to make money too! Here’s how it goes - if the bartender isn’t making a dime one night, they aren’t going to be happy, and if we ain’t happy, ain’t no body happy.

I recently started a new job, which is great  (and even though my boss goes out and drinks every night after work, he doesn’t do keg stands). But there is a girl that I work with who constantly has men come up to her and ask her where they know her from. She won’t say anything to them, but after a minute they’ll find her again and say that they’ve figured it out, they know her form the Men’s Club. Then she gets embarrassed and runs away. I’m sorry, but if you’re going to work at a men’s club, you’ve just got to get used to the recognition that comes along with it.

Relationships aren’t easy.  They shouldn’t be.  For a relationship to be successful it’s got to be a constant work in progress.  When it gets to be too easy and the relationship starts to turn south, it seems like now more than ever people are giving open relationships a try.  Why? Hell if I know. I am not a fan of open relationships in the least bit. For so many reasons I think that open relationships are a ridiculous way to prolong an already dead relationship.  Here are my reasons why if you’re in an open relationship you should just close the door and move on.

Ok, I would totally be lying if I said I understand whey ALL guys feel the need to stay friends with their ex girlfriends  (and no this didn’t come up because of the run in last weekend - that ended a long time ago - this is for a friend of mine).  Just like having an Ex-Box, I don’t get it.

No matter how much you want to make a scene when you and your boyfriend fun into his ex when you go out for your birthday dinner, you just can’t.

An ExBox - hands down! I am probably one of the few girls out there who doesn’t box up every little card, movie ticket, concert ticket, stuffed animal, t-shirts or attempt at a love note from my ex-boyfriend and put it somewhere in the back of my closet behind my winter clothes. As soon as the break up is over with and it comes time for the your stuff/my stuff exchange - give EVERYTHING back and what you find 2 months later, just throw it away. Personally, I just don’t see the need to hold on to everything that has to do with your old relationship along all 5,000 pictures of the two of you for a few reasons. Say you tried to do the “friend” thing with your ex and that doesn’t work out for whatever reason, when you find the dreaded ExBox, you’ll be reminded of the friend you lost or all the happy times you to had and you’ll have a pretty crappy rest of the day. If the breakup was bad, as soon as you come close to that box you’ll remember how much time you wasted in that relationship and hate the fact that you two ever dated in the first place - yet another bad day. Say you’ve finally moved on and you’ve got a new boyfriend (Mr. Wonderful) and the two of you are straightening up one day and he comes across your ExBox (or even worse, you come across his) and the reminiscing starts you and Mr. Wonderful may end up in a little argument - and this could be a very bad day once “the why are you still holding on to all that crap?” conversation starts. So once a breakup is done and over with, there really is no need to go out, buy yourself a new pair of shoes and then fill the box with everything your ex ever gave you. I have nothing against retail therapy, just make sure that you throw the box away when you get home.
