lets see. today i woke up around 12ish. ate breakfast while watching more sahara. showered and then got ready. went to work. 2-10 today. basically rang as cashier for the whole day. stan proposed that for every onc processed, you get a $1. so yeah, hmm. interesting. and if you got the most in the entire day, you double that amount. that was a cool motivating for myself. rang and rang and before my first break, i got 6 onc's. whoo hoo! i was happy. hooray free money. =). told stan about it and he asked if i could get like 10 more. i'm like whoa, that's close to impossible. but yeah, of course tried my best. cashiered more and stuff. lunch was okay. just hung out in the break room and chilled like usual. before the night was over, i ended up with 10 oncs. not bad, considering i get $20. =). its not the biggest reward but it does pay for gas money. i later found out that we needed like 30 oncs today to reach our months goal. i guess that's why there was all this pressure for it today. i was closing cashier and then i took my last break. came back and recovered in girls. finished it and then recovered the mens truck a bit. clocked out and then called my babe. he didn't want to watch a movie tonight but i came over to his house. chilled and ate some food. mmm ice cream (even though i'm still getting over being sick). ahh! anyways, played some more mario baseball and chilled. watched snl. it was the guy from 40 y/o virgin (steve carell). it wasn't as funny as i thought it would be. oh wells. got tired and bleh and so i slept over. it's cool cause i haven't done that in a while. watched some more tv and then eventually slept ...
*september 30, 2005*
let's see. today i woke up early again, around 5ish. got ready and then went to work. 7-4. i basically did markdowns the whole day. started in womens clearance and looked to see if most of our merchandise was accurately priced. i was almost finished when i came upon womens activewear. apparently the upstock wasn't markdowned yet. so i did all the booths in activewear. it took a while because i had to remerchandise a lot of stuff and price kill and move things around and what not. eventually finished. lunch was okay. nothing exciting. after women's activewear, i focused on mens shop 2 upstock. i guess that's where dan and chris left off from yesterday. completed that section and then did mens shop 3. had to remerchandise everything too because there was some stuff that needed to be separated. after that was done, i did upstock. kind of sucked because there were some miscellaneous boys merchandise still up there. most of it was $5 or less and so i price-killed it and put it on display up front. did that until the rest of my shift. clocked out at 4 and then left. stopped by the filipino mart to get some miscellaneous food. no pan de sal at home. boo. hehe. went home and chilled and started watching sahara. it's looking ok so far. took a nap and then woke up later on. ate dinner while watching more sahara. did a little workout and then chilled. went online and then talked to my babe. eventually slept ...

today i woke up early again. 5ish. breakfast, got ready, and then went to work. 7-4 again. markdowns for today was for boys and babies. chris and maryanne worked on boys while i did baby boys. did the shop and then started working on the upstock. also did some minor merchandising. lunch was okay. nothing that interesting i suppose. went back and finished baby boys upstock. there were these shorts and baby girls sweats in clearance that have been there forever. made room for them in the clearance section. after that was completed, started working on baby girls. did that the rest of my shift. it sucked because literally half the shop was clearance. =/. plus, i was kind of tired and sleepy. after a reinvigorating break, i got back to work and finished the baby girls shop. chris did some upstock and i did a booth before clocking out for the day. left and took chris home again. then headed off home. chilled and took my nap like usual. set my alarm and woke up at 8ish. watched the lost episode i missed last week and watched this weeks episode. hooray lost! =). my baybuh recorded top model and veronica mars for me. thanks baybuh! ate dinner and chilled. went online and talked to my babe a bit like usual. eventually slept ...
*september 27, 2005*
today i got to sleep in a bit. woke up around 8 and then ate breakfast. ate some leftovers from yesterday. showered and got ready and then went to work. 10-6 today. joined chris in markdowns. pretty much worked on khaki and essentials and its upstock. there's a whole lot of stuff up there. =/. helped out with the usual cashiering and stock checks. don't really remember a lot besides that and markdowns. oh wells. hehe. clocked out at 6 and then went home. chilled and ate dinner while watching biggest loser. i really want to be inspired again but i always find myself eating unhealthy food and not working out. the good thing is that at least i'm not gaining weight. but still, i'm dissatisfied about myself and hopefully i'll have the commitment needed to refocus my efforts. so yeah, biggest loser was pretty cool. chilled for a bit and then went to blockbuster. returned some dvds from last week and rented sahara and perfect storm. after that, went to get gas for my car. returned home, went online, and talked to my babe a bit. watched some tv and eventually slept ...
*september 26, 2005*
today i woke up around 5ish. ate breakfast while watching a dvd. got ready and then went to work. 7-4 today. i was preparing to do shipment but i guess i was supposed to do markdowns today. so yeah, met up with chris and cheryl and dan and we started on womens feature. i got the fixtures and tables while chris and dan re-merchandised the entire wall. after that was done, went into upstock and worked on that. eventually that got completed. markdowns are pretty cool. time flows by pretty quickly too which is great. can't really remember anything interesting from lunch. oh wells. hehe. worked on womens shop1 after that. remerchandised and moved some stuff around. getting the hang of the 'new' markdown procedures. completed the shop and then worked on upstock. took a while but completed it. =). the final task i had for the day was to complete clearance. clearance sucks because everythings all mixed in and there's a million things in upstock that need to be brought down. with cheryl and benchent's help, we did 3/4 of the shop 1 clearance. hooray it looks somewhat beautiful. haha. finished up what i could do and then clocked out. i seriously thought i was off at 6 but i was off at 4. what the?!?! hehe. anyways, clocked out. chris asked for a ride home and so i took him. it's not that far which isn't bad. then i headed home myself. well first, stopped by the bank to deposit some money. then went home. chilled and took a nap. woke up later on in the night. watched some tv while eating dinner. filipina girl on super sweet 16. hehe. hooray cute older brother. i like his hair. =). did a big workout (at least for me). hehe. hopefully it pays off. after that i watched more tv, went online, talked to my babe, and eventually slept ...
