The Holiday Food and Gift Show

My long week of working the Dome is finally over. My week started by selling parking passes to the vendors for the first two days. (Which always results in whining and moans about how they just spent 3,000 dollars on their little 8x8 booth square and they shouldn't pay for parking). The next five days were spent outside in the lot setting up the parking lots, parking cars, taking money from customers (man, it is so hard to be nice and polite to complete assholes and self-rightous people) and training new employees. (This job is basically everything your parents told you not to do: Don't play in traffic, don't talk to strangers, don't play in the rain and etc., etc., etc.). The show in general has been better in previous years. (Better food, more booths, more customers and certainly nicer vendors.) Sunday was the worst day, evryone is tired and it seemed like every customer was pissed about something. (Price of parking,ticket price, parking availablity and the weather; fucking rain). It was the last day though, so you can't complain to much.
