If theory practice has a motto, it's "organized chaos". We are making flour tortillas in groups of two or three people. The two others in my group just throw the ingredients together as fast as they can so they can be finished early. I am unable to complete the assignment to make three different kinds of tortillas, (chopped vegetable, vegetable puree, and plain), due to time constraints and the crowded conditions. One student gives up in disgust as her ingredients keep disappearing whenever she turns her back.
The day the students make flat bread I get to work on my own, making masa corn tortillas. I found the recipe on line and George wants a copy to use for his classes.
I am in the scatter station with three of us first year students and two managers. Students in the scatter area are responsible for serving on the cafeteria line as well as restocking all the areas around the line. We check all the drink cups and lids to make sure there are enough, make coffee, keep the milk and fountain drinks refilled, keep the straws, plastic utensils, napkins, salt, pepper, sugar, and condiments stocked, as well as wipe up the spills and periodically empty the garbage cans. Even with all that to do, having five of us in this area is too many bodies, so we are hard pressed to keep busy.
