Ziggezagge Ziggezagge RBC!!

Woot! Woot! RBC did it again! Not a single "home" match lost since I started working there! Let's keep it that way, please! Pretty good for our working spirit hehe! RBC still leading the Jupiler League! =) It was a nice match against Dordrecht despite some questionable calls from the arbiter, of which Robert M. did not approve AT ALL. In his press conference he didn't hesitate to mention it BIG TIME. Ha! Good on him!
Henk Vos celebrating his 3-1 and so receiving his "yellow card"...
Furthermore it was a night with a lot of things going wrong, or just not as planned... To start with there were a LOT of sick people, me included, actually almost everyone included hehe. I wasn't really in the mood for working, but since almost everyone was feeling quite miserable, we made the best of it and we ended up having lots of fun and feeling much better! Well, we literally sweated all our illness out of our system hehe. My god, so many people that night! It's been the most busy night so far! I was lucky (I thought) to be "stationed" in the ConfettiLounge that night, which is somewhat smaller and more quite than the main lounge but then the icing machine got stuck. We ran out of glasses. We got no supply of draft beer. People went CRAZY!! My oh my, they began to get hostile! No kidding! Just at the right time I was asked to assist in the "Players' Home" and I went down as fast as I could hehe. The RBC players left relatively early and when we kicked out their friends and family as well and (after A LOT of intensive cleaning-what a mess!) headed back upstairs, people had calmed down finally. Pheew! After setting up business units 6/7, cleaning bars, kitchens & restaurant, a good beer and some hot fried snacks!! we called it a day at 4.30am to be back at the stadium again at 9am. Yay what a lovely weekend ;) That morning we all looked like zombies hehe. When the kids walked in (it was a "Sinterklaas" celebration for children) we thought we were about to die! Screaming, crying, running... of course a lot of broken glasses, fighting children, blood and bruises, and more screaming and crying... It was fun. Afterwards, we were exhausted. We did some cleaning and that was it. We did not even set up the lounge for monday!! We just left hehe. :P The end of a pretty hectic week. Besides some "regular" presentations and receptions (and the *#%@$ monday bridge-club ofcourse) something special this week was the "Business Culinair" night last wednesday. A lot of delicious haute cuisine snacks and good wines presented by various companies. Many overdressed people. All RBC players present. Robert Maaskant singing (!) with the band. Too many drunk people. Hostile and unreasonable. No kidding, Maurits had to hide from them! Now THAT is just too weird! Monday night we will deal with unreasonable people again. As EVERY monday night... My my my ...how low can one go?! This monday I will be working with Natasja who gets more easily upset by them than William. So that can be a pretty entertaining night again ;)
