No this would not be possible. The restaurant is a privately owned restaurant that employs a total of 4 kitchen employees (2 line cooks, salad/dessert cook and a dishwasher) 2 bus boys, 5 servers, 1 bartender and 2 hostesses (and myself -- 1 floor manager/banquet manager/ maitre'd)
At one time we have 1-2 servers and 1 bus boy during the week, and 2-4 severs and 2 busboys on weekends, 1 hostess each day and 1 bartender thurs fri sat (i fill in during the rest of the week as needed). All kitchen employees work all 6 days and do I and Nick. Nick is generally in the back cooking (or downstairs on the cpu) and I am supervising the floor. There is a total of 20 tables in the restaurant, during the week we rarely exceed 10 at one time (during the slowest days we may only have 6 or 7 tables all day), and on the weekends we may or may not go on a wait. Catering parties are the thing that is really keep us alive as we've become a spot for bday parties, bridal and baby showers, communions, confirmations and graduation parties. With a restaurant this small, unfortunately there is no one to take my place and until we blow up some more and another "me" is needed, time off is difficult. I had a wedding to go to in Ohio in August so a few months prior I had the bartender request the week off from the steakhouse (his other job) and fill in for me -- he has 20+ years of experience in restaurants so he was a good fill in.... but the point is that until another me is required less hours seems unlikely

In an ironic (and freakishly coincidental) turn of events, due to a difference of opinions in the restaurants performance thus far and future direction, my last day is going to be this sunday (owners decision not mine)
What my immediate plans are following this are unknown, but I think it is likely I may exclusively play for a few months and reevaluate Ill start another thread with all the details some other time

Bastards! I hate when people decide what I am doing with my life. On the plus side, you will never be left wondering "What if?" about poker now. I am slightly jealous as I have been dreaming of someone removing all options from my life so that was my only possibility was that of a poker boy.
