Yesterday

Well, yesterday I was on lane 26. Surprise surprise. It was an express lane though, so that made it easier because people actually see that it is an express lane. Not everyone, but more than there used to be with the old signing.

I was on my lane for a total of 1.5 hours out of my 4.5 hours scheduled. Haha, oh well. Anyways, I could tell I pissed other cashiers off because I wasn't cashiering. Well, when they have been cashiering for over 2.5 years, then they can be mad at me. And it's not like I wasn't doing anything, I zoned cosmetics, and some of miniseasonal so the closers would get out of there sooner.

I also gave Alisha a break in Food Ave. I always get nervous because I have never been fully trained over there, especially on how to cook. It was around 8 though, so I didn't have to help anyone. I also hid in the back. Haha! Then I also gave Sara her break, and she took longer which was fine by me. But, there was this family who was returning an umbrella, an umbrella base, and a chair. So I did the return and whatnot, and later Sara calls me on my lane and asks what the chairs by the door are, I told her I'd be right down. Apparently they only brought 1 chair over to me to scan. WTF!? Who in their right mind would leave shit they want to return by the fucking doors!? The chairs were listed as a 4 pack, so I didn't shortchange them or anything, but they made no mention to me about the other chairs. Retards.

Well, I also got my schedule for the 3rd week, and combined with next week I will work 6 days in a row! AAAAAUGH! I work Wed-Thurs-Fri-Sat-Sun-Mon. Fuck! And the fucking Canadians have that Monday off, so of course they are going to be down in the thousands. I have never wanted a rifle so badly...Haha! And even better, I work 2:30-close CASHIERING on SATURDAY! Holy Fuck! That is going to suck! I'm prepping to be the biggest asshole ever. I hate the fucking 'I need separate orders', 'Why don't you take Canadian coins?', and 'Can I exchange money here?' NO! Go the fuck home and stay there. Augh! They are so fucking stupid! I've already come up with a asshole remark for their coins, "I'm sorry, there has to be presidents on coins before I take them." Haha! Oh I fucking hate cashiering, closing on Saturdays, and Canadians. All on them rolled into one, Yeehaw! Let's get this party started!

Then, they didn't schedule me the Saturday the 28th. I didn't even ask for it off! So I'll have that to look forward to. And don't think for one second I'm picking up a shift, unless it's Guest Service, in the morning, and is an emergency. We play by my rules on my days off.

I still haven't heard anything about me in 1 hour photo, but a lot of people seem interested. To the person who comments, Do you know the hours for the new 1 hr photo lab? Just wondering... Thanks.

Today it's 2-9 in GS, but I work with Angela, and that could go either way, sometimes it's ok, and other times it's not. Anyway, dealing with rude/stupid guests is always fun.

Have a good weekend!

The hours for the new lab (at our store anyways) are Mon-Sat 9a-9p, and Sun 10a-8p. They take about an hour to shut down their area. Those old yellow "send-out" envelopes are no longer used. There are 2 diff kinds of red envelopes: "One Hour" and "Next Day". ALL film is developed on site.

Be on the lookout for a possible training week where they use team member film to practice developing photos.

I swear there are some funny people at guest services omg. Maybe someday I will tell my stories here too.

Oh...did your store get those stupid "worm balls" on the front lanes? Every night we have a whole pile of them to defect out.
