I had a short 3 and a half hour shift today, well yesterday, at Radio Shack. It was busy and hectic though. Nick picked me up. Corey was with him. I was dropped off at Radio Shack. I brought in 2 boxes of empty bottles for water. When I got there Tara was working and the order was arriving. I was early so I lrft the boxes there and walked to Panera. I got a large cup of hazelnut coffee. I walked back to Radio Shack.
I started helping Tara put the order away. A customer to whom I spoke last night came in. He wanted two Evos, one white and one black. We only had a white one but the Lake Geneva store had a black one. Tara went there to pick it up. I was still selling the white Evo when she returned. The guy to whom I was selling the phone is deaf. He's on a special plan from Sprint. When I went to sell the Evo the full upgrade discounts didn't apply. I tried again, same result. I called Sprint. They said it was out P.O.S. with the problem. I called the hep center. The woman to whom I spoke there tried to apply the full upgrade discount. She couldn't. After being on the phone with her for about 15 mins. she said that the full upgrade discount didn't apply to this phone because the customer is on a special plan and doesn't qualify. I told the customer he either had to pay $399.00 or change his plan. He was unwilling to do either. The normal price of an Evo for a full upgrade is $199.00. I called Sprint back and unactivated the Evo and reactivated his old phone. It was bullshit. I wasted an hour and Tara wasted time too. She also wasted gas going to Lake Geneva. We could have been helping other customers or putting the order away during this time.
I put some of the order away after the guy left. Ken showed up. Tara was mostly on the phone during this time. I sold an air card. I sold it to this guy named Lee. I don't like Lee too much but I can deal with him. That sale went smoothly. It was a new Sprint account.
I just helped put the order away until it was time for me to leave. It wasn't completely put away by the time I left. Tara said that three MP3 players missing from the cage but they returned. She asked me about it but I truly don't know anything about it. They're back so I guess everything is all good.
I punched out and left through the back door. I carried the boxes to a cart in Wal-Mart's parking lot and used that. I got a bottle of NPH and a bottle of regular insulin at the pharmacy in Wal-Mart. I filled the bottles with water. I checked out and waited for Nick. He eventually picked me up and drove me home. Corey wasn't with him. I made pork chops for dinner.
