As I'm still struggling with the dreaded Writer's Block my blog content probably won't be that coherent at times. So I'm gunna try and get things moving by doing a more inclusive About Me kinda post, then see how things go from there.
So with the goal in mind of making writing feel natural again, here we go.
Deactivating Writer's Block, About Me, Part 1:
I'm V. I'm 32 and I'm a barmaid.
I kinda just fell into bartending when I was jobless and involved in an abusive relationship. Luckily that shit ended but I fell in love with bar work and have been behind the wood ever since. In December I'll have been doing my job for 11 years. Of course it has its ups and downs and there are times when I could quite cheerfully throttle both my customers and staff alike, but y'know, I can't see myself doing anything else.
In recent years I've developed a somewhat love/hate relationship with bar work. Although I think that may be due to the fact that the Great British Public are unutterably stupid. After everything went tits up in 2020, my tolerance for bullshit is in the minus figures.
(Side note: I'm usually blunt and can be pretty disparaging towards my fellow humanoids. Generally I consider myself a firm misanthrope. Trust me when I say you ain't privileged if you feel my wrath; I don't like many people. Maybe like, 3?
If you're offended by coarse language then this probably isn't the right place for you. I'm a barmaid in a working man's pub. Sometimes I swear a lot. And I generally write how I speak: With a broad Brizzle accent peppered with curses.)
I'm pretty chuffed that I've managed to write this much so far. Think I'm gunna do a few more little experimental posts just to get myself back into it again then I'll be able to crack on with some of my ideas.
Again if you've made it to the end of my ramblings, fair play.
