What? You mean I actually get to work OUTSIDE?!

Work didn't totally suck today. I actually got to do something other than the same crap I've done for the past month. Since most of you don't know, I am mainly a cashier. The job I hate most in the world. I stand in a 2-square-foot space and ring up the same stuff for 8 friggin hours. A flat of flowers...$12.99. A hanging basket...$19.99. A vegetable tray...$1.49. I could go on and on. Stuck outside in freezing cold, rainy weather in a tiny little booth standing. We're not allowed to sit down. There are cameras pointed at us. Did I mention this was for 8 hours? So, if you haven't caught it already, I was pretty fed up with it all. Dealing with crabby people who complained about prices, coupons, the weather, their husbands, the stock market, medicare, blah, blah, blah. Today I actually got out into the fresh air and was able to walk around. I swept for a little while, priced stuff for a little while, arranged plants for a little while, etc. People would come up and ask me where to find stuff and I'd have to say I didn't know. I've been there for a month and I have no idea where anything is. All I know is the inside of that damn booth. Today I didn't feel like shooting myself in the face halway through the day. Today was actually pretty decent. Just felt like ranting. Sorry you had to read it.
