16 Hours

Out of the last three work days, I have worked 45 hours. That is roughly 16 hours a day. I didn't sign up for this. Everyone had to do maintenance on the boat because the Coast Guard was coming today to do an inspection.
This is how my days have been:
- Go to the dock at 8am
- Clean thr oil and gas out of compartments in the boat like the engine room
- Leave maintenance at 1:30pm to go home and scrub the grease and oil off my skin for waitressing
- Go to the warehouse where we prep the food at 2pm
- Go straight to the boat to prepare the tables and presentation of the boat
- The people come on at 6pm and stay until 8pm
- I get off the boat with them and drive the dinghy out the the outside morey alone and in the dark.
- Clean up the dining area, the gallies, scrub the decks, clean the heads, ect.
- Then we do more maintenance in more compartments until 11:30pm
- I am the one that usually has to cater so I pick up the truck from the parking lot, load all dishes, garbage, etc. and take it to the warehouse where I soak the dishes, take out trash, separate linnens, etc.
So I get off around 12am.

There's some fun days. But thank the Lord that they are over. Inspection is today and hopefully we pass with flying colors, or there will be flying heads.

I just woke up and it felt like a day off because I don't have to be at work again until 2pm! Though I work every day this week. I am trying to see if there is a midnight showing of Pirates of the Caribbean III for tonight. Someone told me that there was a showing at 8pm but I thought that wasn't possible. Either way I would be way tired again because I will have to work until late again tonight and might miss both.

On Tuesday morning, I went to Haleakala, which is the volcano on the east side of the island, to watch the sunrise. We left at 3am and I got back just in time to work at 8am. That was a long day. But the sunrise was so worth it! So beautiful...

I need to go wash my stinky uniform. Bye bye
