The Problem with Townies
Kanaskis is no different than the rest of Alberta- if you were to look at pie chart of where Alberta’s demographic grew up (specifically Calgary) it would easily eat up 40% of the chart with small town Saskatchewan kids and the other 40% Alberta small town kids.
Calgary and area is covered in redneck white collar workers, and Kanaskis is in a similar boat.
The other day I was talking to two servers, Andy had been asked out by a guy on a date and she kinda freaked, and now she was discussing what action she should take... as all girls do.
Julie who grew up in only god knows where saskatchewan said that she’d freak too if someone asked her out on a date, especially if she only kinda knew the guy. (which means they talk on a social level but don’t directly hang out with one another, which is why this fool asked Andy out on a date) anyway so I said well it’s probably the only way you’ll really get a feel for what this guy is like is if you go on a date, and a date isn’t scary, and it doesn’t necessarily mean anything.
Then Julie says “I’ve never been on a date”
Then I said “well how is it that you’re going out with Jerry?”
She said in a very matter-of-fact tone “well you just find out that this guy kinda likes you, then I’d get drunk with him and hook up, and then after in the morning we might go watch a movie at either of our houses or something during the day”
I was kinda surprised someone would argue against going out on a date because it was creepy and weird , but suggest that a one night drunken hookup was normal... I said “Julie you are 24 yearsold, you’ve never been on a date, and you reasoned that dates are creepy and awkward but sleeping with guy and then asking for his name later isn’t? … and none of that is creepy, but being asked out on a date is?!? You’re such a hillbilly.”
She just kinda shrugged her shoulders and half assed tried to defend herself, but she knew it was true. She is a hillbilly. As are most of the people out here, and me and hillbillies clash in a lot of areas.
Such as sarcasm
There’s this one server named kristy. kristy uses the words “you idiot” far from sparingly when you are around her (even while working ) and she uses the word fuck more in 20 minutes than the 3 hours length of the movie casino. She’s a trucker who will spend 400 dollars at the bar, and she basically cuts people down all the time... so I figured sweet! finally a server who deals out sarcasm, so I started hitting her with my normal amount of sarcasm- perhaps a little bit more because I figured she could handle it… but no, instead she walks up to my bar and says “look if you hate me that much don’t talk to me”
… fucking hillbilly.
In the office Brian asked how the function went, i said good but I think I pissed off kristy, and she turns to me and says “there is so much I could say about you right now, but I won’t because you can’t handle it”
And I remarked with “I don’t think you know me well enough to tell what I can and can’t handle”
That really pissed her off, anyway I expect she’ll get over it when I turn down the sarcasm.
I’m sure she is used to being the black sheep that would deal it out, but since she is a town of 10 she can’t handle it when it goes two ways.
Another thing: she always talks about her boyfriend and his well endowed vocabulary, his pumping appreciation for books, and his unending stamina for wine.
If I grossed you out, I meant to.
Anyway this trucker has an imagination for class, but between the word fuck and her most exhausting book in her room being Tuesday’s With Morrie I wouldn’t know where to begin.
If I were a guy I would try to emanate some sort classy persona without being a condescending ass which would pretty much ensure a guy all those trucker girls who dream of class. But I am an ass and condescending so I’m fucked.
Overall Kanaskis is populated with mainly small town people who are used to going to one single bar over and over again, and thus they have become accustomed to the routine that it is out here... I just can’t play the dice because I like variety, I like awkward dates, and I like two-way sarcasm.

don't worry he's a total poser if he's dating her, 30 yearsold, and taking a 2 year hotel and restraunt managment course.

Yea, that course sounds like bullshit, the way you manage a resturant is by working your way up, and not sucking balls, I won't be too suprized if my work asks me to step up if my manager leaves, but I probably wouldn't do it anyway. and sarcasm is what relaly makes the world go round.
