After the picture session, there was an open bar in the hallway in front of the Ballroom where we had dinner. I tried taking advantage of that kept going up there for Rum and Cokes and Margaritas. There was some Mexican drummers or whatever that was keeping us entertained before the dinner and some of us thought it'd be cool to take pictures and drum with them... I wasn't one of them...
The odd thing about dinner is that we didn't select our seats, they assigned our seats and none of the Des Moines people sat next to each other we all sat with people from other parts of Sprint. It was kind of cool because it's a way to get to know who and what goes on in Sprint. Another thing which kind of made me realize is that it's different because we're outsourced we're not really internal Sprint we don't get their benefits or their pay or a lot of their "insider information"... I felt a little out of place, like I wasn't actually good enough almost... I don't know... They served wine there so I kept drinking up that's pretty much the best thing to do. While we were sitting though we did have a little Award Ceremony for the people that has won the Crown Club twice or more. They all went up on stage and took a picture with an award that I guess we all had once we came back home. Funny thing about the winners... My boy Dan King had some fun going up there, he actually didn't win twice there was a mix up, there's actually more than one Dan King which really screwed up a lot of their trip as well with the rooms and activities. So I guess when they had the 2x winners someone tapped him on the shoulder and asked if he was Dan King, of course yeah he is, they told him he should be going up... I did not understand what was going on when he was up there. I thought our call center was the first time to qualify for this trip and he won twice? After that event I got what happened LOL. They had some more speakers... blah blah blah, and showed up where next year's destination would be for the Crown Club Trip it will be in the Dominican Republic.
Dinner was nice, it started out with some kind of weird wanton looking thing and salad. I'm so glad they served Fillet Minon, I really wanted some steak so that just came right on time! I don't know much to say about dinner just some conversation and eating not much a do there... Afterwards though it was time for the "Club Chocolate" night. It's interesting time, it's out in the courtyard area of the Hotel there were comfortable seating around and they were offering cigars. See I'm not a smoker at all, I actually hate smoking plenty but what I thought was we're in Mexico Bitch...It's time to look cool with a cigar and drink in my hand dressing all fancy. I don't know about that night we talked with some people but it wasn't really all great and it ended at 11pm. Towards the end though there was another higher person above MM that wanted to take us all out, I was down but it doesn't seem anyone else was so we kind of just stood that group up. I thought the night was just going to end right there but actually we found our hotel neighbors from North Carolina asking if we wanted to go out with them... Yes of course it's a whole new crowd non Des Moines and Winchester so it's a new experience...
We all rode cabs downtown. I think we ended at a club called Helio. For some odd reason we had VIP access there and had a seat next to the DJ and got completely Crunked up there. It was actually a real fun night just hanging out with strangers at a foreign country just partying. Taking shots there from the bar ladies is interesting, they have these girls with whistles that throw down 3-5 shots down your throat and spin your head in circles sometimes they put your head in their clevage or in this case they took your shirt off and put hot wax on your nipples... I don't know... Mexicans? We chilled there and then went down to the dance floor and did a little 1, 2, step, Girls are ridiculous if I remembered correctly this chick that was all over the bar with fake breast was showing off everything and even took another girl with her on the bar and just going "Girls Gone Wild." It's MAJOR I tell ya. I was pretty intoxicated after a while so I'm going to end most of it there... We went back to the hotel and passed out, tomorrow we had to do snorkling.
HAHA Check out these Bar Pictures we took, MAN it was funnier when I saw them the next day!
