Shake Yer Bootie!

Ok, it was S-L-O-W last night compared to Friday and Saturday. I stood on post for most of the night..for those that don't know what I do for a living, I am a Dual Rate Security Supervisor.

That means I split my work days between being a Security Supervisor and being a Security guard. Last night was a guard night. My first couple of door posts were fairly steady for Identification verification. But as hours progressed door traffic began to slow down to a crawl, it was after all Monday morning in the wee hours and the beginning of the work week for the nine-to-fivers.

So..what to do to pass the time? Quite a few officers doodle, but I sing and dance..lol. Well, not loudly, or a lot of spastic movement, but enough to lift my mood. Yeah, after two years, I am not too concerned about what people think of my singing or dancing abilities. It makes work fun, and that is shared in sunny smiles and pleasant greetings and good nights for those coming and going. The musical fare at work is usually 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's music, so yeah, I know most of the words to sing along. (grab some ear plugs..hahaha!)

Working the H-Lounge on Friday and Saturday night as a supervisor has created an itch..I'd love to go out sometime to socialize, dance and have a few drinks..it has been a very long time. I cannot do this at my workplace, it's a giant NO-NO for us to be seen on our off hours imbibing anywhere at the casino. But I would love to let my hair down, it's been way too long since I last boogied. ( or at least attempted to, lol..I am not the world's greatest dancer...and I really don't care. I get to watch everyone else attempt it, so what I look like on the floor is not something to worry about. I've seen what some qualify as dancing, and believe me..I know I could do better. I find myself suppressing laughter while watching the floor..usually try to keep that in and just smile! I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings.)

So, if any of my friends feel the same urge..give me a call. It might be hard to match schedules, since my weekend is everyone else's work week, but I will try to request a Friday off if something can be planned ahead of time. Come ON! I wanna Shake Mah Bootie too!!

Have a great week 9-5er's
