"Sometimes real fire fighter have to come"

"As kid we light building, and other things, on fire. Was so we could play fire fighter. Need fire to be fire fighter. Sometimes real fire fighter have to come.”

"Watch My Purse."

Last night after the bar closed, and all the patrons were gone, staff was hanging out having a drink. The Russian Co-Worker and I were talking. Then he pushes his drink towards me, and says, "Watch my purse. I must use toilet."

BAC

We had a "TIPS" training at work today (a skills-based training program that is designed to prevent intoxication, underage drinking, and drunk driving).

The facilitator asked if anyone knew what BAC (blood alcohol content) stood for.

The Russian Co-Worker said, "Yes. Is blood alcohol contest."

"Sandwich bread"

Patron: I would like a chicken sandwich.

RCW: What type bread?

Patron: What do you have?

RCW: Uhm. Multigrain...and sandwich bread.

Patron: Sandwich bread?

RCW: Yeah, like bread, for sandwiches.

Patron: I'll take multigrain.

"Just give me pill."

"I went to eye doctor other day. She say I have some condition or something, and that I need glasses. I ask her if she can just give me pill. She said this not how eyeballs work."

"Then day go missing."

"Yesterday was not good. I get up early. I plan on going to gym, do some errands, and have productive day. Then I take vitamins, but I make boo-boo. I mistook vitamins for other pills. Instead I take Trazodone and Melatonin pill. Then day go missing."

"Ugh. I just remember I have to drink tonight."

"Ugh. I just remember I have to drink tonight."

-Said with serious resignation, when the RCW remembered he was supposed to go out drinking with someone later in the night. There was drink in front of him when he said this. It was his third. I guess he hadn't "started" yet.
