Alena regional manager in Russia. She likes her beer! She is the Russian clone of Daniel. Drinks, curses, and drinks again.

In my 3 visits to Russia today was the first time I have seen blue sky. Of course I took this picture from the plane as I go home. Lol

The girls in Kazan performed a traditional dance for me. Of course right after this dance they slipped on their Coyote wear and rocked out.

I went into this chic hair salon asking to dye my hair to look like this particular Penelope Cruz picture. Well she must of been color blind because I walked out looking like this other photo. I very rarely freak about my hair, on the theory that it will grow out. Well I freaked this time. I had to go back and get it fixed.

I am visiting Trey in Lafayette Louisiana. The whole town is freaky. The people here act and dress like they are in Beverly Hills. Really? Does Jennifer Anniston and Kim Kardashian secretly live here? Is this the Palm Springs of Louisiana? Just imagine Housewives of …. Then add on the Hillbilly hand fishing accent.

Where they filmed Wizard of Oz

Our boys are on the road and so are we. Destination Daytona first stop

What a day! Picked girls who are going to Russia for the opening of the Moscow Coyote. I have looked at a million calendar pictures . I had a meeting with the blue cross blue shield people to change my insurance. Had to scour one of the bar’s books for two checks from last year. And now Jackson and I have been studying for his various tests tomorrow. I am wiped out!!

Busy day today. I have picked 9 girls so far for the 2010 Calendar. I need submissions from Vegas, Tampa, Panama City, Nashville, and Memphis.
Lee and I are working on designing a Coyote Ugly Cowboy boot. I am having so much fun doing the research on this. There are some beautiful boots out there.
One of our old managers keeps on stealing our girls to work for his new company. That pisses me off considering I gave him a good reference!! Damn people.
I have a sneaking feeling that one of the managers is sleeping with one of the girls. He’ll fuck up and we will find out. Patience!

I can’t even access my emails today. We use pair.com or mail2web to access our emails. Its getting harder and harder for it to load. The spam is unmanageable. I asked the webdesigner if we could just start a whole new email address and start from scratch?
I got ticks from our manager’s seminar in he woods. Jeff called today and said he had poison ivy. Fun

Yesterday we took the managers to a confidence training course. Freaking funny. It was at a military base. We had to scale walls, hop walls, balance on logs, and swing from a rope to land over a wall. Some of our male managers seemed a bit worried due to their non jenny craig diets. I leaned over to Lee and said ” is it weird that all the corporate staff is in the best shape even though these managers are 10 years younger. he look of fear on some of these people’s faces was priceless. Next year we decided on paintball. That will be so much fun. Overall I thought the seminar was informative and it was a good morale booster for the various bars!
Today we did our corporate picture. The idea was to be playing poker in a italian/gangster style era dress. The players : Lee, Daniel, Jeff, Kevin, Chantel, Jacqui, and myself. All the women got their hair and makeup professionally done. The men wore suits and hats. At first things went very well . Everyone was having fun with the shoot. Then I think all of the girls either straight out cried or welled up with tears because none of us were happy with how we looked. At one point Lee came over to me like a deer in headlights ” I’m sorry I don’t know what to do. You guys seem so upset” . All I could say was two things. 1. In our jobs we spend the whole year promoting the coyotes. It’s always about how good the girls look. How to dress them . How to make them the best they can be. Only once a year is it about us. We want to look the prettiest we can look too even if it is just for that day. The bottom line is we are all women and two of us had our periods.
On a good note , the guys looked awesome and my pledge is that next year I will get drunk and have fun. Fuck it!!!!

I couldn’t sleep last night. I have this anxiety of Daniel opening his unpolitically correct mouth in Russia and having big problems. Daniel is one of my best employees. He works very hard and is incredibly valuable to the company but the words that come out his mouth while addressing the various staffs are worse then any truck driver I know. ” He retard!” that a normal greeting from Daniel. ” That guy will spend a million bucks in this bar so eye fuck the shit out of him and get his money!” I thought I was bad but I cringe sometimes when I listen to him. Jeff was late to the seminar and missed Daniel’s presentation. The short of one of Daniel’s teachings was, and this is in my words because his words are worse, ” always cultivate positive relationships with your regulars. In your regulars you have plumbers, lawyers, electricians, ac guys, carpenters. Do you know how much money you can save if you get the regulars to do some of the maintenance work. If you have to fuck Joe blow so we get free plumbing work , then do it.” Oh my god did Daniel just ask the managers to exchange cleaning pipes for getting our pipes cleaned?” I can only imagine him telling the Russian staff to ” eye fuck the local plumber” and then having a russian mafia boyfriend beating the shit out of him. I told Jeff, Kevin, and Lee ” we have 3 months to get Daniel more PC so we don’t get killed!!!
Reading the second book in the Twilight series. This is the worst mushy junk I have ever read. ” Please either vampire or werewolf kill her so we can put an end to her misery and the readers!!!

I am just getting to bed from the Managers seminar. We ran very late but it went very well. I was really proud of the corporate staff because they did such an excellent job preparing for their various discussions. I want to list he awards we gave out today because I am so proud of our company and the people behind its success!

2008

So I made the mistake by starting a facebook page a few days ago. What a mistake. Anyone ever associated with Coyote is emailing me. I feel like it is not appropriate to be communicating on facebook with my employees. All I wanted to do was try and find some old friends from high school and college and so far I have not found anyone I have looked for.
Stressful. Lee old me that he has given up on it. I understand why.We are redoing our corporate picture. Sapranos meets poker. Is it wrong to buy a pinstriped suit keep the tags on and return it? I won’t do that, I’m a shopoholic I will have o keep he suit even if I never wear it.
OKC had a rough night last night. A few tragedies with family members of staff. Aloha went out. Tabs missing. Ice machine down. I remember managing on nights like those. Now I laugh but in the midst of a Saturday night and everything is falling apart i’s like your in a personal hell
