So its official, I am a midnight warrior. I've recently started working at a new restaurant called Elly's, its a 24 hour breakfast diner on North Ave. and Clark, and I am working the graveyard. Last night was the first all-nighter that the restaurant has pulled, and the first I've pulled in a long time. The shift went by quicker than i had expected and we had far less charicters of interest than what I had initially thought. The lack of money/crazy people will only be temporary, im sure. After a little word of mouth and some good publicity we will be up to our eyeballs in drunkards. I would, however, have to say, that for a Wednesday overnight 70% of our patrons were just leaving the bars on Division, and the other 30% was the bar and nightclub staff who are up and hungry at 4:30 A.M. All in all i would have to say that it was a good night, and i look forward to doing it again tonight, tomorrow, and beyond.
I used to do the midnight shift in an all night pancake house, and what a trip that was. Enjoy it while it's still fun, hope you make a bunch of money.
