As the Depot Turns...

Aug 21, 2005 20:02

Rock on! Granted this past week has been a bitch at work...Back to School at Office Depot after all. However, I made the best of it...got in 10 hours of overtime and managed to sell about 13 extended warranties on TI calculators last week (I started off this week with a whopping seven plans today...five in a day was my previous record).

Thursday, we were expecting some big wigs from corporate to pay a visit so John had me vacuum the offices upstairs...he added that I should do an especially good job...right. So I added, "Sure...get started on filling out my Kudos cards for all those plans I sold and I might be more motivated to do a better job." To which he replied, "Well, what if I told you that I nominated you for Brand Ambassador [our strange name for employee of the month]...and you won...would that help?" ha ha, hell fucking yeah...extra $50 on my paycheck...plus the glory that goes with it. After all, I have complained time after time that it is a rare occurence that any of the cashiers get that honor...wonder if being a nag helped?

In other O.D. news...The two newest people John just hired also just quit. Rachel put in her two week notice Friday...Carrie is thinking about putting in hers...and Sean is seriously considering joining the Air Force. Oh well, I'll still go by what I originally said about quitting...as long as Michele stays, so will I.

*In nearly 12 hours I will start my third semester of blessed college...what a downer that is...
