First night of work was awesome!! I started at 7 and didn't leave until midnight, but it was so worth it. At first, I was kind of nervous that I'd suck at everything or it would be too weird...but I got used to it all pretty quickly. They stationed me in the front and I was pretty much just greeting customers and folding/sizing all the clothes that were out of place.
Right at the beginning, there was a couple near me looking at flannels and I was folding jeans. I said hi to them, then mentioned the promotion and I was like, "Oh, by the way, flannels are marked down to $24.95 and guys' flannels are $29.95," and then over my headset, my training manager was like, "Good job, Gretchen!" :D It was fantastic. I did everything they asked me too, plus a lot of stuff they didn't ask me to do (in a good way), and I did it all quickly and efficiently without complaining. I "folded down" the table of sweaters and Amber, the general manager, was like, "That looks really good!" Then she had me do an entire new table setup by myself! (So if any of you go to AE and see the table of all the fleece zipper hoodies, I DID THAT ^__^ )
Besides all of that, a couple days ago I registered for this website called RenRen, and it's literally a Chinese Facebook (because Facebook is banned in China T_T) At first I had very few friends, and now I already have like 24!!
Anyway, today was great and I'm in a good mood and tomorrow morning, I'm going to get up bright and early and drive home!
