The dungeon, books, and feelings of unease..

What a hectic crazy day. I felt like I was being forced to run at full speed all day, while staying in place.



Technically, I am a shoe associate, supposedly working in shoes. More and more, I have found myself thrown behind a register checking for most or all of my shift. Since I have gotten a doctor's note for my back, I am now finding myself thrown behind the register at the self-checkouts. You know how mind-numbing that is?? Really, just hitting the red 'digital' buttons on the monitor, and occasionally going to each lane when the person checking their stuff needs an age approval or screws it up somehow. Sure, saying hi to the customers and making sure they get through alright, but most of the time they are either on the phone or in a group and they just want OUT OF THERE. I can't say I blame them either.


(but...minus the smile this lady has... Just as a default...)

Today, not only was I sitting at the self checkouts for over four hours, I also did 340 price changes. Really, why on Earth did they think it is a good idea to drop that many price changes on the weekend???? They actually dropped 360, but I didn't do the last 20 of them because they were partial size runs. People go nuts when a size 7 of a style is one price and the 7 1/2 is another... So I left them on there until at least tomorrow to see if the rest drops....




I don't feel well. My dinner is not wanting to settle down and be digested.. I honestly have to stop myself from getting sick (sorry for the visuals).



So, on another note, I was thinking again about my job/career change. If I can't work in a library anytime soon (see my previous blogs titled 'The unbalancing acts'), I still need to escape the 'dungeon' (as one of my lovely readers dubbed it) VERY soon... I think I will check out the hiring possibilities at Barnes and Noble. It's kind of like a library. Another plus, it is in the mall that is only two blocks away from me. :)

A downside?........It is in the mall that is only two blocks away from me. *laughs* Our mall has quite a few stores that I love, and constant sales. I would forever be broke, even more than usual!

My medicine is kicking in, I can definitely tell. It works fast, and knocks out my abilities to formulate coherent sentences and to spell/use grammar correctly.

So, my dear readers.. You've all been pretty quiet lately! Feel free to share what's going on with you!

How is your weekends going?

What lovely (or not so lovely) places do you spend your time the most?

What do you think of Nirvana?
