books, books, and more books
I know someone out there wants to move to Pittsburgh and come take over my bookstore for me.
I now have over 8,000 books in my inventory, and that doesn't even include the 14 or so boxes that haven't been gone through yet. I have no time to do it myself, and I can't really afford to keep paying my friends $5/hour to do it for me, as it's taking all my tips and that's the money I buy food and things with.
Plus Andy can't really keep up with the books very well (they're a part of his store), and there are some that get stolen, lost on various shelves where they don't belong, and the other girls that he hires to work his register can't seem to remember what the ISBN looks like, and therefore don't record the book right and I have no way of knowing what book sold when I go to update my inventory.
So it's a wee bit frustrating. If I wasn't going to school I might have time for it...hopefully I'll be done with classes come the end of spring or summer next year. But in the meantime, I need help.
But alas, like everything else, there's no money to just pay someone to take care of it for me. So I need someone who wants to take it on as their own, basically. Or something. I gotta figure this out.
In the meantime, I am done with my summer classes....I managed an A in my speech class, a B in Principles of Selling (ughhh GAG), and scraped by with a C probably in Accounting. Lord did that class suck. Hopefully the grade will go up a bit, as I sent the teacher an email about....er five or so different problems on tests that I'm 90% sure I had the right answer for but were marked wrong. So at least I'm done fore a bit. I'm hoping my mom and I are gonna go up to Michigan for a weekend to see our family that we haven't seen in over 7 years. It's just hard cuz I'm so friggin busy here. And yet I'm not getting enough done....I really need to step up the business here, I've almost run through my line of credit and there's so much more that needs to be ordered/done for this place.
but anyway, it's about time for a bunch of regulars to come in, so gotta fly. catch you kids later.
