I just got off my 8-hour shift at work - tonight was the Theory of a Deadman concert, and the attendance was surprisingly lacklustre. Why the VJ Search graphic you ask, well because when I got to work I was greeted by cameras. Apparently the Much VJ Search team was in Edmonton filming scenes for an upcoming episode that featured an Apprentice-style t-shirt selling contest. There were 2 or 3 teams and they had to see which team could sell the most shirts in 1 hour. Some teams, I'm talking about you Erik, resorted to stretching the truth and somewhat lofty promises in order to sell shirts.
Whatevs, I've been one to 'get creative' in order to satiate my desires.
Other than that, it was a pretty uneventful night. The only thing that got on my nerves is how people, who had obviously never been to a show before, referred to the guest list as 'the VIP list'. Sorry to burst your bubble, but it's not a VIP list. There were over 80 people on said list; you really weren't getting preferential treatment other than not having to pay.
So I'm sitting in the coat check booth and this girl and guy who are clearly dating but have just had an argument walk up. The girl's in kind of a huff.
Tanorexic Ditz: I need my coat!
Himbo (to TD): I don't suppose you also have my ticket?
Tanorexic Ditz: Um, I gave it to you in the hall...
Himbo: You threw it at my ear!
Tanorexic Ditz: Whatever, you deserved it
Himbo: We'll see if you get a ride home with that attitude (walks away, then comes back). Are you coming? (they leave together)
I love working in a bar. I get to see people at their worst. They never remember me, but I'll never forget them
