So I have now been at my new job for about 2 weeks, you guys I am so exhausted.
Being a cashier at this store is no easy job.
I work at Uwajimaya Asian Grocery and Gifts, which also a tourist spot in Seattle's Chinatown area. And it is still run by family members from the original opening. It is an amazing story.
I was kind of thrown into the deep end really quick by working 4 8hour days right away.
Because this is a grocery store I have to try and memorize produce codes.
I don't even eat alot of produce goods at all.
And these include things like Naga Imo, Mizuna, Fava Beans, Durian and many other things that I have never seen or heard in my life.
But this place also has some of the nicest people I have met.
Everybody has come up to me and said Hi, How are you doing?
That is so much nicer than when I worked at "T".
My Sis still works there and even she says when they see new team members all they wonder is "How long is this person going to last"?
And yes, I have just broken done and bought the "Going!" cd and a Myojo magazine from the Kinokuniya Bookstore that is located in my store.
So that is my update so far.
I am hoping get some time to get some comp work done, burning dvd's, icon making, things like that.
Hope everyone else is doing well.
Ciao.
