Today at work wasn't too bad. Time actually kind of flew by, which was really cool. I like working shifts with my framing manager because he's fun to work with and we keep busy and gets lots of work done. Not to mention that I had an "all-star deal" to quote my manager. I took some old people's money for all their worth. Or something.
Towards the latter part of my shift we found out that during our 50% Your Entire Custom Order sale next week that we are having a contest. HUGE contrest. But it sucks for us because there is no way we are going to win. To even be eligible to win the contest each store has to sell 15% over their forecast/last year's sales. Our sales last year were over $25k.
Because of this HUGE IMPORANT sale, the store manager wants every shift covered as much as possible so if we get busy we will be covered and be able to handle it. This means that I was scheduled for two days that I requested off. Thursday I have requested off because I have class, but now I'm just going to show up 30 minutes late. And I requested off Saturday so I could go to dinner with my friends. But I can't have it off because this contest is huge and they need loads of help. So I'm stuck and it sucks.
And now my mood is totally blah because of this whole thing. I'm actually really bummed about it.
