Food Avenue

Saturday morning at Food Avenue

It’s yet another Saturday morning, 7:20 a.m., and here I am driving to work. I wait at the front door to see if anyone will be willing to drop what they’re doing and respond to the annoying ringer that announces that someone is there. After about an endless minute a friendly night-crew member named Frank lets me in. As they pull the door back for me they ask, "So how are you this morning?"

"Just fine thank you. If only I wasn’t so tired," I responded with a yawn.

"I know how you feel."

"Bye Frank."

"See you later Amanda."

I proceed onward in behind the mysterious "Employees Only" door to the time clock. As the clock turns to 7:25 I punch in. I pull my hair back and head my way towards the wonderful Food Avenue. On my way there I stop by the service desk and get my keys and the money for the till.

7:55 and my first guest arrives (he just happens to be an older gentleman that works on the pull team and doesn’t seem to realize that like the rest of the store, we don’t open until 8:00). "Good morning Rob," I say.

"Well now your up early this morning."

"I guess. If I were home right now I know I’d be sleeping," I replied.

"Got that right. Say do you got any of those oatmeal raisin cookies out yet?" Rob asked.

"Oh course. One of the first things I do. I don’t want you to get mad at me right away you know."

"I couldn’t get mad at you."

"I don’t know about that Rob. Do you want your cookie and senior coffee?"

"I guess so since you’ve got them out all ready. Have a nice day Amanda."

"You too."

As I watch to see him sit down at the table I go through and make sure I didn’t forget anything. Nope. Remembered to unlock everything; all the grills, ovens, and warmers are on; washed all the tables and counters; pop machine is turned on; coffee is set out; and I even turned the fans on above the grill.

As I could have predicted right at about 8:02 a rush of red and khakis from the pull team, they’re the people that get to move the merchandise from the stockroom onto the floor, come and order the big breakfast: scrambled eggs; toast; hashbrowns; and choice of sausage, bacon or ham.

  • The Characteristics Of Gender Inequality And Human Development

    744 Words  | 2 Pages

    Inequality is defined as the “quality of being unequal or uneven”, Merriam-Webster (1828) albeit social discrepancy, economic disparity, political variations or anything else. Gender inequality is the notion that women and men are not equal. It refers to the imbalanced treatment of a person based on what their gender is. The ‘United Nations Development Programme’ have recognised that though “major strides” have been made in the fight for gender equality, the struggle that women and girls face when they are discriminated against in “health, education, political representation, labour market, etc is a major barrier to human development”, (UNDP Human Development Reports, 2016).

  • Heavy Metal Essay

    2294 Words  | 5 Pages

    When people hear heavy metal music, they instantly throw up connotations of anger, violence, and Satanism. It is these extreme, but not necessarily false, ideologies that widens the unthinkable gap between classical music and metal. But it is not just the sound of heavy metal music that can be compared to classical music, but the musicians behind it. Classical music was often written as a way of expressing the feelings of the composer, or evoking emotion from the listener, and an article on Vancouver Sun (2013) suggests that this is one of metal's primary functions, stating that “Both musical genres are characterized by visceral outbursts of virtuosity and histrionic emotion.” Of course, music did not just appear out of thin air, they were developed through influence. With regard to rock music, guitarists took influence from various classical techniques, and fuse them with their blues rhythms and scales to create something new (Walser, 1992) as the development of music has always been. For the classical and baroque eras,...

  • Torture In Prisons

    Support for these claims is thoroughly documented through definitions and other facts. However, the author’s research mainly focuses on events that took place during the Bush administration at classified CIA prisons to obtain important information in the war on terror. The treatment of the captives in these prisons has been classified as torture, yet President George Bush Jr. denies any use of or support of torture because the United States of America signed the Geneva Convention Treaty that outlawed torture. The methods reported to be used include isolation, nudity, extreme temperatures, starvation, stress positions, hooding, and threatening by dogs. Even though, torture is only classified as pain equal to the loss of a bodily organ or body function loss or death, several deaths have been reported in circumstances of torture or degrading and cruel treatment. These circumstances prompt the author to view torture and its legality in a negative light. Throughout the piece, the author uses credible statistics and actual situations that sufficiently support his stance. This article is relevant to the thesis due to the sufficient supporting evidence of

    ...ousness of the genre and the realization of the mortality of our favorite rock stars. The 80’s gave way to the greater popularity of punk and metal, and along came cultures sometimes characterized by black clothing, macabre imagery and interests in death, the occult, and the supernatural, and elaborate makeup. During the 90’s grunge, alternative, and hip-hop inspired fashion became popular with loose fitting clothing, tartan or plaid flannels, and the popularity of sneakers like Converse, Adidas, and Nikes. A common theme through all ages of rock is rebellion, and subsequently freedom. From Elvis to The Ramones to Nirvana, rock bands and artists have always pushed the envelope. That’s what rock is and will always be: an unmistaken expression of emotions, the ultimate rejection of oppressive authority and what’s considered “normal”, and the triumph of individuality.
