Understaffed

Jun 23, 2005 17:51

We've been severely understaffed at work lately. I was the only cahsier for the entire night last night. I put up a sign saying:
"As fate would have it, we are once again severely understaffed. We apologize for the inconvienence you will most likely experience if you are unfortunate enough to spend an unfavorable amount of time in line. Thank you for your patience."
And you know what? Not one person complained about having to wait in line. One lady even complimented my sign. She said "not only is your sign well informative and written with a sense of humor, it is also grammatically correct, and the spelling is perfect. You don't see that anywhere." That was pretty cool. She must have been an english teacher or something.
I had to work 6:00am to 2:00pm today. They needed help with putting out all the home accent stock. They had no help (severe understaffment). Today and tomorrow are suppose to be my days off, but since i took Monday and tuesday off to join the Navy, I agreed to work these shitty shifts. I am NOT a morning person. Oh well! I'll have to get use to it. There's no sleeping in at Boot Camp.
Not only am I surfing the crimson wave; I am surfing the crimson tsunami. I have cramps from Hell.
