Procrastinated and didn't get the GoPro for sister's Xmas gift, until today, and HEYYYY it was back on sale again! So good thing I waited! LOL. Got her the Hero Silver, regularly $299.99, on sale for $229.99. Figured I'd get her the mid level one rather than the cheapest. Comes with a SD card and free 2 day shipping. For $5 a month you get cloud storage and free replacement if you break it, up to 2 times in a year. Next up is to get niece her Disney Designer Doll Jasmine. Best price seems to run about $200, which is almost twice the retail price but whatever.
So far been sticking with the 10 hour shifts rather than 12, which is fine by me. 20 hours of overtime is $500 which makes up the difference I'd get paid by RMSI. Tonight supposed to be back to 12 but previously they shifted to 10, saying there's not enough work. It's more like there's not enough packers to get the work done. Apparently they didn't hire a lot to begin with and some have quit down the line. Considering all other functions of the job are leading up to the end result of boxing the shit up and sending it out, you'd think they'd have assigned more people to the packing department. Oh, well. I got trained to do gift wrap singles which is basically shoving the item in a gift bag then putting it in a box. Nice break from other routine, though I swear that area is warmer than the others. Also got to look at other parts of the packing process and would like to try out the one where you're shoving things in envelopes.
Payday in a couple days and still have about $600 in the bank, woo hoo! Okay, not that much anymore after getting the GoPro but will still have $300 left over.
