This week I am working at a waiter at The Royal Ascot, which is a big horse racing event for the upper classes, the Queen attends and so does a load of celebrities.
But ******** them, they don't make it great.
There are over 300 waiters in my company working this event and I ******** lucked out so hard. Myself and 5 others are doing waiting for "The Carriage Club" which is about 30 people, who all arrive on horse drawn carriages which are parked up right next to the tracks. They have a pre-set menu, so I don't have to take any orders at all. All I had to do was pour teas and coffees and take plates to and from the tables.
They where eating lobster, crab claws and loads of other yummy foods and deserts. They left SO MUCH, it was actually a real waste, even after myself, co-workers and manager stuffed ourselves with lobster and all this other food we still ended up throwing plates of it away. It was kinda heartbreaking to throw away all these great deserts because none of us had room to eat them.
One guy gave us £20 between us each race to bet on a horse. We didn't win, but we came incredibly close, picture finish and ours came in second sad
The horses ran straight past as to, if we stood at the barriers they came within 5 meters.
Our manager Calibaro was a legend (I doubt any other manger in the places lets the waiters munch the food) he was friends with a jockey to... this jockey who had just placed second rides past on the way back to the start line our manager yells "Nice one Frankie!" and he just turns and yells back "Ey Calibaro!" and blows him a kiss xd
I have 4 more days of this and the weather is going to be better cool
