Since the coffee sales aren't doing so well, the CEO of Young's has decided to close the coffee shop portion of the gift shop.  We don't have an official date for the closing but I guess he want's to do it soon.  This means it'll go back to being just a gift shop and there will be a major cut in hours.  I've been thinking about what I'm gonna do.  ( Read more... )

I promied to become more active again on LJ, I haven't been keeping that promise.  Part of this is due to my completely uninspiring life.  My life pretty much consists of work, school and work.  The only day I really have free from class or either of my two jobs is Thursday and I have choir practice thursday evenings.  Plus this quarter ( ( Read more... )

**Please note, I didn't actually say any of this, I only thought it.  What came out of my mouth was nice and sweet and perfectly masked any hostility ( Read more... )

Okay, so I went and talked to Jenn today. I told her I understood it's an important meeting and about how Reformation Sunday is a big thing in our church and she asked when church started. Service starts at 10:30 and she's like "so you really couldn't be here for much of the meeting". I offered to come meet her at 9:30 to go through stuff with ( Read more... )

Okay big freaking problem with Jack's right now. Jenn has scheduled a mandatory store meeting for 10am sunday morning. For those who aren't Lutheran, that's Reformation Sunday. When I first saw the notice I figured just a quick 15 minute meeting. I'd go dressed for church and leave right afterward. I asked her about it yesterday and this is ( Read more... )

Oy, what a day. Went to the Circleville Pumpkin Show yesterday.  It was cool.  Because it's the 100th anniversary they had the OSU marching band come down to play for the parade of Bands.  I was about 3 feet from an OSU base drum with the block O on it.  That's probably the closest I'll ever be to the OSU marching band.  After the parade they gave ( Read more... )

Okay so I realized I am way way behind on a general update.  First of all, congratulations to John and Katie Skidmore!  I can't believe they've married a whole week and I'm just now mentioning their wedding.  It was beautiful.  Katie did an excellent job of planning a wedding on a georgeous wedding on a lower budget.  When it's my turn I may have ( Read more... )

Okay, so I'm working the giftshop tonight. This lady came in just a few moments ago to tell me about this cat that is apparently bleeding really bad from its ear. Since we are a working dairy farm people drop off their cats all the time, there are literally hundereds of cats running around. So I told the lady that they're just barn cats and that ( Read more... )

Okay, I'm not normally a superstitious (sp) person. I don't place any signifigance on Friday the 13th, it's just another day. The last two days and today seem to be making up for it. ( my week from hell, and it's only Tuesday )

Okay, so I quit the Dairy store about a month ago now but I'm still on Young's payroll due to still working in the gift shop. Renee just came in and said that if I wanted to work out there (in the D.S) this weekend she'd put me on the schedule. I haven't been getting very many hours at Panera as I thought I would and generally don't like it as ( Read more... )
