Morning Is Awesome!!!!!!
So yeah…. work shift was so awesome today I had to write about it now. I’ve got an hour to kill before I leave for awesome fun with my awesome cousins…. we totally need to get smashed again like we did at the wedding in September….. it was fun.
Okay… I’ve said it before…. but I hate hate hate Alex Connolly. That kid is the stupidest most annoying piece of shit in the world. I mean… he got in at 9…. I stuck him down on 4 very far away from me. He was already bitching about a break at 10:45. He’s been there less than 2 hours…. what the fuck. I just looked at him and told him no. By 11…. which is when I left he was complaining even more. He came up to Sam and me and was all complaining that his register was screwed. Sam was sarcastic with him and asked what he wanted her to do about it and he got all bitchy and was like… fine I’ll just stand there and do nothing. I almost…. almost said that was what he did anyway. Then I remembered I’m in charge and have to set an example and refrained. I walked down to the register with him… the printer was resetting… that was it. And he was acting like it broke on him. What a dmb fuck. I told Sam what it was and she broke down laughing. Seriously… that kid sucks. Then… at 11:05 while I was still there he was back on how he really needed to get a break… I explained calmly that there were people who got here before him and left before him that needed it first and he’d just gotten halfway through it. Sam was telling me that he was here for 3 hours one day and bitching about a break and she told him to shut up because he didn’t get one and he flipped out about how that was illegal and they couldn’t do that to him…. what a fucking moron.
Also….. the funniest thing ever. I was talking with Sam, bagging for the last 5 minutes before leaving…. and all of a sudden Rob Duffany and Lauren Hickey who are on the register next to us just break out laughing… for like 5 minutes…. neither could stop. I thought Rob was gonna fall over. I just look over at them and they crack up even more…… I asked them what it was…. and Rob just said I said something inappropriate and wouldn’t tell me. neither would Lauren. So I went shopping for ice that my Mom needed… and went into Lauren’s line and would not leave until she told me what I said. Yeah…. Sam had been talking about coming in late because she wanted to see the end of a parental control episode…. so I said to her… “If you couldn’t come on me I would’ve been so upset.” Yeah… out of context…. yeah. I was glad I could provide some amusment.
Also… I ma the happiest person ever early in the morning. Slept at like 1 AM… got like 5 hours of sleep…. but being there at 7 AM… I am just so cheery. I was dancing and singing around the front end… all smiles and happiness at everyone. Sam was all… what the hell are you so happy about. Yeah… I don’t know what it is but the less sleep and the earlier in the morning… I’m just crazy goofy and happy at work. It’s so opposite of being well rested and at night where I’m more laid back and crazy intense pacing man.
So… besides all of that fun… let’s see. First time I’ve opened the store in forever. I got the newspapers done late because I was also the only cashier for 30 minutes and once Sam got there… both of us still needed to be open. I forgot to close the check boxes for a while. It was just very odd feeling to be doing all the opening stuff…. but oh my I got to get a clean lineup sheet and got to put people where I wanted and not have everything pre-decided and stupid. Sam was on 9 with me. Alex was on 4 as far always as possible. Matt L. who is okay but crazy…. was on 6.. far enough away for it to be okay. Lauren was on 8. Yeah… I massively manipulate where people go when I can.
Mike Salyh finally got on register… first time…. trained with Sam… looked to be pretty good at it… more sure handed than a lot I’ve seen. I think he’ll be fine.
Selfscan 1 broke on me… what else is new… selfscan sucking…. no.
Ryan Silva did the coffee run for everyone… it was good… I really needed mine. he had to go back a second time though for forgetting one too… it was sad.
Also… Sam and I got to talk about all the cute boys we liked in the store…. it was fun. I’m sure Mike enjoyed listening to that conversation.
Blair was annoying and Blair…. I’m so sick of him. I mean… there were a bunch of carts… like a row of 30 just sitting in aisle 1 for who knows what reason… so instead of seeing them and taking a few up with him and asking me to get it done… he’s all OMG get it now you suck for it being there and you not having realized it and fixing it. He’s just such an annoying ass. I miss Mike Antoine. I didn’t think I would… but I kinda do.
Then… Oh God…. Adam Costa. I just wish he’d leave me alone. He bags for me and talks about soccer and drives me nuts. He’s the worst bagger in the world… I mean multiple customers tried to ask him not to bag and tried to tell him what to put with what…. but he just failed. Then… this one woman had a box of 6 muffins… which are a tight fit in one of those boxes anyway…… he just dumped the entire thing into a bag…. spilling it in there. Then he just told her it wouldn’t work and left it like that. I was just so….. God I want to take it away from him…. I fixed it as much as I could for the woman. He’s just so frustrating and always underfoot and never doing carts when he can get away with it. And I’ll have him tomorrow night too probably…. not looking forward to that… because then I have to go out and do them afterwards because he won’t get it done.
I think that’s good for now.
