! Hour 3 Birthdays

Lunchtime loomed towards us at work today. It was suspiciously quiet up until 1 o'clock, barely any customers, very little to do aside from cleaning, it was your classic: Lazy Sunday Afternoon. All hell broke loose pretty quickly though as a pair of back to back parties cornered over half of our work force into the kitchen. Matters got even worse when a surprise party turned up, ordering over £80 worth of food, all of which needed to be prepared simultaneously with a pair of parties. I was surprised that we didn't spill more stuff on the floor since we had so much to do. Miraculously however, we did everything we needed to. As an added bonus we even assembled all the available staff to sing Happy Birthday to the surprise Birthday Boy! He was a little bit scared of Eddie however and since he was very wee he couldn't quite blow out the candles in time for it to make a hell of a waxy mess on the cake but the parents were chuffed and I found it delightfully different.
