Welp, I made it through another Black Friday with the company.
Funny how you can work for a company for oh so long, you can know where everything is in the store, you can mentally prepare yourself greatly for the event, but the very second the doors are opened? It's like I've been employed there a week. All ability to act, react, THINK, goes out the window.
Thankfully, people were pretty understanding, for the most part. I felt really bad for one lady who was waiting in line for a monitor and a guy cut in front of her and bought two of them. I hadn't seen it happen, unfortunately. Line cutters are a SEVERE pet peeve of mine, and I don't care how fast you hoof it to my register, I will so boot you to the back if you line jump. Anyhoo, by the time the lady got to me, all of the inexpensive monitors were gone.
Ah, well, it's Black Friday.
I also had the joy of today being my Super Awesomistic Fabuloso Cramp Day. There's 365 days in the year, only 12 of which are generally evil crampy days, and my uterus had to pick TODAY?!? Eesh.
Yay for Panda Express catering, though.
We finally slowed down a bit, and for the sake of saving some payroll, they asked for volunteers to go home. I waved my arm frantically, grabbed my purse and civilian clothes, and got a ride home with Aimee two hours before the time I was scheduled off, and enjoyed an afternoon of leveling my Dreanei paladin to 57 (Miss Pru), kicking it pajama style, watching Oprah, and eating leftovers. (Methinks I consumed too many yams.)
Is it just me, or is Luke Wilson starting to look odd? Granted, I never found him cute...
Don't even know why I'm going off on that tangent.
How have you all been?
