Stop & Shop Stays the Same
Ah….. work was kinda fun tonight. It was also kinda crazy.
I got there at 6 and stuff was all over there. Fawn was CDH… and Brendan was CDH… and Paul was coming in…. and I was there…. plus this girl Toni is a CDH…. there were way way too many of us. I hate that…. I feel all like extra baggage…. like some of us should just go home. But… we all found work to do… I stayed CDH… Fawn bagged and rang and did other stuff…. Toni rang….. Brendan went and worked in produce and other areas. And Paul was his usual self…. he just got lost and confused…. did bags…. wandered here…. wandered there. It’s Mr. Paul Kelly.
Doing override’s felt all weird…. it had been so long. Ringing felt all awkward…. though I only did it like twice for tiny orders. It’s gonna take a bit for all of that to come back…. my brain’s all wired to Pick ‘n Slave’s System which is so so different. I mean…. doing audits….. refunds…. CDH stuff felt all fit like a glove…… but the cashier stuff felt so awkward like I have to re-learn it. It’s going to be interesting when I actually have to ring…. re-discovering where all the keys are….. where the subtotal button it… where the enter button is…. who to do checks and cash… etc. It’s all so different from Pick ‘n Slave…. all the keys in like opposite places. I feel so out of place on that keyboard.
Also…. I like know no one. A lot of people are still there…. but so many new faces I just don’t know…. plus a lot of people I worked with for like a month last summer…. so I know who they are….. but barely know them.
Also…. new things….. we actually have a cashier until midnight…. it’s not just CDH by themselves…. that so rocks hardcore. I love it. Audits are done more and on a new sheet that is awesome…. the weekly lineup is in a book….. the sheet for sweeps has all the registers filled in…. so much neat little stuff like that that shows things are just improving bit by bit.
Linda LongFrenchName is also pretty nice. I like her. She can be a little curt at times….. but I don’t think it’s something she means…. just how she talks. She gets stuff done… and is pretty nice too. We got to spend the late evening together…. it was nice.
Laurel came into visit…. that was lovely…. she brightens up the store every time she’s there. Of course I’m sure we’ll like never work together…. it always works out that way.
The carts kid was napping on the bench outside instead of doing carts….. it was lovely to see…. God I can’t stand lazy kids like that.
Also…. seriously… Sam is such a lazy no good fail now. She does like no work….. tries to get out of everything… and just wanders wherever she can so she doesn’t have to do anything…. it’s so annoying…. I used to like her….. but now she is no good. Plus…. how can you dump Dan Damery…. when he is just the cutest sweetest boy. Also…. he has this goatee/beard thing going on right now which is no good. It’s NG. he should fix it…. he was much cuter without it…. though he’s still adorable enough. Plus he’s one of the only guys who’s said anything about “how great I look.” That always makes me wonder…. most guys totally don’t say shit like that to each other… so when one does…. it raises a slight flag…. not gay…. but at least close enough for me to go to work. Though I have no doubts about Dan’s straightness…. it’s just fun to play.
Also…. Dan annoyed me all shift by having his phone out and texting on it….. no matter how many times I told him to put it away. I understand as it gets late and there’s nothing to do…. but still…. I hate that. There will be no lenience next time. Tonight I kinda eased myself into the whole routine….. next time with him I’ll have to be harder.
Fawn is way too obsessed with WOW…. seriously… she talked about it all night…. but would admit FF7 is the greatest game ever….. God I so want to play that right now…. I loved that game so. Still…. God do I hate the WOW. Otherwise… she seems nice…. complains a little too much…. but has reason for it…. and has mental breakdowns at work… right when I got there… which is suspect…. but a girl having mental breakdown because Paul Dwyer said something….. NO. NEVER. I can’t hold that against her… I like her and think we’ll get along well.
Toni is an airhead…. one shift and it’s like who stole this girl’s brain and can they give it back to her. Yet Paul made her a CDH…. what a jaw-dropping surprise.
Oh… the S&S never gets old…… never. More fun coming up as my next dayoff is Thursday…. working every day until then. That’s including two mornings….. Sunday and Monday…. 9 AM shifts…. so not good…. plus the Saturday night getting home at like 12:20 AM and having to be back at wok by 9 AM…. I hate turnarounds like that…. but at least it’s not 7 AM.
Yeah… this concludes yet another installment of my life at S&S.
