Who's the boss?

>> Thursday, May 5, 2011

Remember that TV show from the eighties\early nineties? Ha! Classic!

But the answer to the question this time is not Tony Danza friends; the answer is ME! :)

My current boss is opening a new restaurant in Hamar and has named me daglig leder or restaurant manager! So from here on out I basically have even less of a life than I did before! Yay!

But seriously, all ironies aside---super exciting. I get to run a place that will feel like my own in many ways without having the pressure of actually being the owner. I have yearned for more responsibility for a long time. I am anxious\spent\nervous+super excited as I am sure you can imagine.

I actually think the entire town is excited for this place to open. Or at least they should be! In my opinion it's exactly the kind of place Hamar needs! Something between a cafe and a bar, between fine dining and fast food and in the best thinkable location in town! Herregud som jeg gleder meg!

I also have to add, ... I would have never EVER guessed that I would have moved to Norway, bought a condo, found the love of my life and become a restaurant manager before I turned 25. It's a good thing I didn't try to follow any of my life "plans" and just went with my gut I do suppose...

Congratulations! Now go kick some ass! (Well, not customer ass. That wouldn't be good advertising.)

Congratulations Lisa! So excited for you! There's always something to be said for following your gut---you can't plan life =)

Holy shit, AWESOME!!! Herzlich gratulieren!

...Guess I'm the last of the jungle to get their shit together in the adult world. I suppose now I have no excuse not to. Thanks a lot. :)

I am curious. . .
What order did those things happen in?
Love of life meeting first?
2nd: move to norway?

Let us know where the restaurant is, and hopefully I'll make it down to Hamar sometime soon!

Gratulerer! Remember, life is what happens while you are making other plans!

Congratulations! How exciting for you, and what a great experience it will be to get to start it up and run it from the start. Who knows, maybe someday you'll open up your own place and then this experience will have been invaluable!

Way to go! Congrats!

As a regular reader of your blog I was a bit concerned because you were away for so long, but then it turns out things are better than ever. ;)

Oh, btw, the correct phrase in Norwegian would be "Herregud, SOM jeg gleder meg."

This is so exciting! Congratulations my friend!

I read about that in the HA! I saw you in the article about the new restaurant and just loved the idea right away! Who better to run an American restaurant than an American?! Good luck! Will definitively be stopping by to try the new place ;)
