Christmas is approaching at the mall. Time for all the crazies to come out in full force. Seems like it came early this year. But that's only because we lost a week between Thanksgiving and Christmas this year. I know most people get stressed out about the mall around now, but I like it. I like working there at Christmas. It just gets so chaotic. I get to play manager at the registers this year. After Christmas I get to interview for managers keys. For now though I have to survive through overnights I wasn't informed of till I walked into work. Nothing better than working 4pm-5am on Sunday night and going in Wednesday at 6 expecting to leave at 11 and being told "OH! You get to stay with me here all night!" then leaving at 7:30 the next morning. I wouldn't mind if I had known before hand so I could actually sleep all day and eat. All the Christmas decorations are up and Santa's taking pictures. Has been since November 1st. Kinda scary that people had decorations up on Halloween but we have to get those 5 weeks of holiday in. Especially with the massive amounts of boxes coming in shipment. Worse than any year before. We don't have nearly enough temps right now either. We are suppose to double our core staff by thanksgiving. Well we have 2 new people so that means we need....about 25 more people. Any takers?
