First day back at Henry's...

Wow! So if I ever doubted whether or not I should go back to Henry's while I look for another marketing position, may the doubting stop now!

Yesterday was my first shift back serving at Henry's. Yeah, not ideal, but necessary to bring in some money. I was only scheduled to work the lunch; however, when I arrived, one of the managers asked me if I'd like to work a corporate party during the dinner hour: lot's of people ordering copious amounts of alcohol and eating nothing less than steak and seafood. So I knocked out a VERY profitable lunch (especially for a Monday), took a Flatiron break (1/2 price steak for servers), turned my day into a "double", and walked away with my most profitable day serving ever. To give some perspective without hitting hard numbers, I made exactly the same amount as my weekly unemployment check (in 10.25 hours of work). If that isn't God saying, "Thank you for finally listening", I don't know what is. What a blessing!

I'm scheduled for 5 shifts this week and 6 the next. It's pretty grueling, but fun to reconnect with old coworkers and get back into a groove. I realize not every shift will be nearly as profitable as yesterday's, but He knows we sometimes need billboard-sized, neon lit signs with strobe lights and giants with megaphones screaming, "His will this way; come to the lights and follow His will." Meanwhile, I'll keep looking for another career position. This is going to work out in His time.

Thanks for the continued prayer.
