First, I fixed a problem that has been getting steadily worse at work. The receipt printer on one of the registers has been randomly kicking itself offline, and I've even had transactions declined because of it. I complained to Management about it, and they responded by swapping it out with the other register. Which obviously didn't fix the problem. :-P So yesterday I got fed up with it and opened the thing up, taped over the bad sensor, and it's working much better now, though not perfectly. How much you bet I get blamed for it? *sighs* Everyone I've talked to about this, including coworkers and my parents, agree that I should quit. I've been trying to see this as a test of my job faithfulness, but it's getting hard. If they do blame me for this, I'm going in there and giving Ross & Co. the Big Talk to. And I'm filing my two weeks before-hand, so that I don't get fired on top of it all. :-P
Ps. When I win the lottery, I'm buying that place. And I'm going to stick 10,000 sticks of dynamite into register #2, and Ross and I are going to fight over who gets to push the button. :-3
