Some days I dislike my job a little...not the actual job itself, but the hours of pointless waiting in between. Today was the kind of day where after a certain point if someone had actually come in to buy glasses I would have started out resenting them as they would have interrupted my doing of time-killing things like writing more D&D stories, eating lunch or reading a book.
The there's the state of the sale where the customer wants to see every frame in the store and you'd really rather just be reading or writing. Sometimes it's better when it's not busy. But too many 0 days and they start to think of shutting you down; not that that is the case at our store, not yet. Two weeks ago we were 196% to budget, last week, 49.3%. I really think people only shop on pay weeks and go hang out in parks the rest of the month. Nothing wrong with that, I would be there in a heart beat. But instead I man the abandoned ship; one night I made jam there at work, just cause I could. Freezer jam, mind you, the no cook stuff. I mean seriously, it's not like I have a stove back there. It's really good jam though, if I do say so myself, Strawberry Cherry, but I call it Sears Jam.
Tonight I am feeling the pride of eating food grown by me. I have 4 kinda of lettuce that survived the horrible cold snap in May, and tonight we eat some of them. They just keep growing though, like a starfish when you cut off an arm, it grows back!
Well I must be off; my day of inactivity furnished me with 10 pages to type into my machine and save. I also finally organized the notes to both of the stories and they each have their own bags now, clearly labelled. I do love my order!!
