Oh My Job.
Friday was my last day of work. I was bummed. As soon as the last person left and they locked up I did my happy dance, and Drew cheered. Then I looked at her and it hit me: This was my last day. We hugged and out teary. And everyone looked at us. I was teary. Most people hate their jobs and are so eager to leave or get a new one, hoping for something better. I was tired and couldn't wait to get home sometimes, but sometimes, I liked being there rather than at home. At least I could clean up messes easier there.
Of course I won't miss the Creepy guys, or the homeless smell. But I'll miss the small things, like seeing the homeless as a reminder that I need to be thankful for what I have. I'll miss the excitement when there was food upstairs. Walking to Monks (coffeeshop.). Laughing while shifting. Being blunt (I'm going to Pee.). I'm going to miss the talks with L.A.'s about the Twilight series. I'm going to miss my boss who would give me stickers. I'm going to miss everyone, really I am. The jokes, the funny patrons.
1. Creepy Guys. If there is a guy who creeps you out, he is a considered a Creepy Guy. However, due to the number of Creepy Guys, you have to come up with a name, ex: Deaf-Guy.
2. Hell aka Children's Section. Want kids? Not after working in the children's section; though there are cute moments, this section is very messy and annoying to clean up, however this works for birth control.
3. Upstairs. Pages work in the basement and 1st floor. We only go upstairs to take carts, go on break, get our checks, to close, or just an errand or go to the bathroom (when you don't want to use the public ones). Because of this, you could be working for a year and still not know the names of the people who work upstairs, and they will not know you.
4. Food. Food is a good thing, you need it to leave. What's even better is when the food is free. Therefore, if you are a student, it's going to suck when the holidays come because there is so much food, and by the time you get to work after school, you have to pick out leftovers, and mourn that all the good stuff is gone.
5. Snack/Drink Machines. If your snack gets stuck, feel free to use your hips and bottom or hands to shake the damn thing because you want your crackers; soda machine can go insane, please be warned.
6. Dirty Books. Yes. They are disturbing, but at times can be educational, and funny. You're young. You're curious. However the children's dirty books...those are funny...but still very wrong haha.
7. Carts. Always try to use the good carts and do your best to be sure the good ones are not taken. Some carts are old and evil...and squeak....loud.
8. Zapper. The zapper is fun. Use the zapper to have fun. Pretend it's a wand and you are going to Hogwarts. Pretend it's a clipper, or a light saber (that's my favorite.)
9. Romance novels. You are going to hate them. Danielle Steel and Nora Roberts are the Devil. Really they are. As for the other romance novels, the paperbacks, be sure to read the backs and the title to see what they are about. It's HILARIOUS! It's even better when sharing it with your co-workers.
And finally, number 10:
