we got this new cunt of a head chef at the hostel. he said some pretty racist shit to allen & treats me like a damn fool & cooked a vegetarian thing in chicken stock [& has all these fancy notions about hygiene]. it's well fucked. i am pretty sure that to him, i am just a girl & allen is just a gook. before this we didn't really have a boss, just the chicks who run the hostel itself & i never realised how much i was enjoying having female bosses til now hey. not that most of the men i have worked for have been chauvanist pigs or whatevs but there were many, i dunno, vague feelings of subservience, that it was incredibly great not to have... anyway we are not really sure what to do, it is only a few days in but i want him to just fuck off a lot. i dunno if i should go to management & say something now or sit on it. buh. i really just want to go beat him up for what he said to allen. xenophobes can eat shit.

BUT. this arvo was pretty sweet. my friend em shouted me a massage, FUCKEN WOAH! i never had one before. but we went & got nekkid & had all our stresses rubbed out like an eraser. i was kinda nervous cos i'm superrr ticklish & thought i would probably just giggle a lot but it was ok! better than ok. came out all squiggly-wriggly afterwards & went to essen & sank into chairs & drank lots of tea, & i didn't have to get up & collect glasses or take orders or do anything! chairman wow. then i went & bought a box of fancy tea, for ME. EXTRAVAGANT PURCHASE. then i went to my mate james' for VEGAN SUSHI what he made me. i have awesome friends. then i rode my bike home & whistled in the rain.

i want 10k saved by end of august, && i am almost half there. pretty righteous. i will have to start smoking cigars just to light them offa all the fat wads of cash i will have, or something.

when I went in to get my chips yesterday, he was standing right near the cash register, and he's like "oh, I'll just get Bridget to come out and help you"

IMPLYING

"this job is only for girls, and I'm not fucking doing it, I'll leave it up to the GIRL"

also, his last name is Kent which is not very far from cunt.

Also, I think you should tell the managerers. Cooking some sort of vegetarian dish is chicken stock, that makes it not veg. Racists are generally NOT WELCOME in a backpackers. Fuck, why are the so many racists around these days. However, I don't know if they would actually DO anything, and my general feeling is that they wouldn't, because of how long they've been looking for a head chef, and now they have one. However, I think he will probably get real sick of it, real soon, when he realises there will never be any customers and he is actually a dismal failure (see: last head chef).

But by this time you will be in the desert where you go in and never come out, and will probably have told the guy to stick his job up his arse you racist fuck etc, etc...so it won't actually matter.

yeah i told kylie on friday, she was pretty good about it hey. she said that she wanted the place turned around, but not at the expense of current staff's happiness & stuff. his general attitude i think, is a hangover from larger kitchens where there is a pretty defined hierarchy which, while is pretty much expected in bigger places, is just kind of unnecessary & irrelevant in a place like uh, ours, where it's small & everybody should just help each other out to get shit done.
he's been treating me _slightly_ better after i just kindof made it clear i wasn't taking shit from him, but i hatehatehate how he treats allen. it's just been loads harder to go in to work the last week hey. i told kylie i wanna go part-time there so i'm gonna start that week after next i'm pretty sure. blergh.
did you get my message today? i was gonna come czech out the footjambag but didn't know where/what youse were up to.

I got no message :(

It is just not the same purchasing a hot chocolate from a racist/sexist/etc jerk, (as opposed to someone who likes to talk about ZINES) so I just don't. Which means I get no hot chocolate in the morning.

In a place where 3 people work, it's just completely ridiculous to have any sort of hierarchy really. Sure, there are different responsibilities, and different people are going to get paid differently etc. However, everyone should just be getting the job done and not be such a massive wanker. mmmhhmm.


ps very excited to read your new zine.

oh heck yeah! i really dig how good i am at saving hey. it probs just comes from this long of being in the "why would i buy stuff? i have nowhere to put it!" mentality, but it really works in my favour.
