So I had a great laugh at work tonight ( Read more... )

Work was AWFUL last night.  Working at an ice cream shop during an unseasonable wave of heat and humidity really means you get screwed royal.  Last night was the worst yet.  I took over the drive-thru at about 630 or so, and it was so busy I never could get further than 3 feet from the register for the next 4 hours!  Hell, it took 3 of those hours ( Read more... )

My original Schedule last night: 7:30-10:30, an easy shift...ring up customers on the produce/package line, clean up and close down lobby.  Be home before the store actually closes ( Read more... )

Okay, so it's not that awful--I just am wiped out after this weekend ( Read more... )

Was SOOOOOO much better than yesterday!  Whatever G (manager) had up his butt yesterday seemed to have evaporated today, because he was totally cool.  Everyone was happy and working great today ( Read more... )

So just skip this if you don't care about me ranting against having to be a corporate drone.

I got a job at Braum's again (it was my first job not on a family business farm), seeing as I still remembered how to make most of the ice-cream and drink stuff.  I've been there about a week.  No one has yet given me paperwork for my W-2, and communication ( Read more... )

I shall now present, in bullet-list form, the major landmarks of my day, most of which happened between noon and two...

• Went to Coleman's Factory Outlet so Hubby could get a propane burner doo-dad (he plans on taking his camp coffee percolator with him to his field methods class Saturday since it's only going to be in the 50's or so)
• While driving ( Read more... )

No, Miss narcissistic modern-day almost-20-something co-worker, I do not in fact want to hear you play the same crap-tacular hip-hop "tune" off your phone every 5 seconds for 4 hours straight.

Especially when your "singing" echoes through our end of this particular mall, and I'm bound to the store because I'm on the clock >.<

And yes, Miss 20-year- ( Read more... )

Well my day today was a mixture of good and stress :P

On the way to work I spotted what looked like a pocket calender or notebook in the grass.  So I picked it up only to discover it was a checkbook!  It was still intact and everything, so I took it with me, since I was close to work.

Once there I scrounged up a phonebook--but nothing.  They weren't ( Read more... )

Well it's still comin' down.  They just closed the last road in or out of town about 30 or 45 minutes ago.  And it's still coming down.  We still have power, as you might have guessed.  Hubby and I have been getting pics and video from time to time, so I'll be sure to upload those eventually ( Read more... )
