Since I write my blogs after midnight everything contained is from the previous day. My days sometimes don't end until after midnight and sometimes they're close. When they are close I don't like to feel rushed to get a blog in. There will be days when I don't even enter a blog. I also see some typos when I go back and read my blogs. They won't be corrected.
Nick picked me up. Corey was with him. I was dropped off at Radio Shack but then I walked to Panera and got a large cup of hazelnut coffee. Tara and Ken were working when I got back to Radio Shack. It was already busy. The whole day was busy. I arrived early so I just sat in the back room for a few minutes before punching in. I saw a cup of coffee from Panera in back. I thought I had left my cup there from last night so I poured it out and threw the cup away. A few minutes later Ken came back looking for his coffee. I told him I thought I had left it and I threw it away. I ofeered to walk to Panera to get him another cup of coffee. He refused. I offered him the money for a cup of coffee. He refused. He wasn't pissed but I sure would have taken another cup of coffe if someone offered it to me, especially if that person had dumped mine out.
I punched into work. I started checking people out. There was a line at the register when I punched it. After the crowd had cleared I just sold shit. I sold an Evo. It was an upgrade. I sold a Virgin phone. It was an Optimus. That person bought all sorts of accessories. I completed this worksheet about a smartphone and its features and benefits. It took me about 5 mins. I chose to write about the Evo. It's just some more work bullshit that I have to endure.
The afternoon was busy. Ken left. Paul, the Sprint rep., showed up. He just tols us about a repeater that's available to customers. It amplifies a sigbal to spots that don't have good reception. He didn't stick around too long. An order came in. It was all cell phones. I asked Tara if she or Jay, her boyfriend, had gotten my cigarettes at another store. She said no and asked why. I said the $4.00 for change wasn't there. It wasn't there last time either. She just gave me $4.00. I left it at that.
Justin arrived. He rearranged some phones on the prepaid wall. I guess the planogram changed. Tara went to lunch. While she was away Justin rearranged the prepaid wall and I checked the phones in from the order. Justin put them in the cage after he was finished doing what he was doing. Tara returned. She was surprised to see the order put away and the prepaid wall done.
It was really busy around the time I shoot up. I couldn't get myself away from the register. I ended up shooting up about 45 mins. later than usual. I shot up in the back room. I swapped a cell phone and returned the MP3 player that I sold the other day. That's what kept me from shooting up on time. Justin was also busy dealing with a Boost customer who couldn't get his phone to access the internet.
After I shot up I punched out for lunch and walked to Culver's. I ordered a reuben basket along with another reuben sandwich. I ate it there. I walked back to Radio Shack after I was finished eating. Tara left while I was gone.
A couple came in. They asked about cell phones and decided to start a Sprint account. They both chose an Optimus. The guy chose the grey one and the woman chose the purple one. I ran a credit check and no deposit was required. A spending limit of $150.00 per line was put in effect but that's no big deal. I activated their phones. I sold them both on the same ticket. They bought 1 case, screen protectors, and a car mount. It was an awesome ticket. I had a killer day. I generated more than half of the store's sales today. Both of them left happy. I was pretty happy myself.
There were still some things to rearrange on the prepaid wall. Justin and I completed it. After that we pretty much just hung out. Justin started following me here on this site. He used one of the store's computers that is up for sale and accessed the internet through his cell phone. He has a myTouch from T-Moble. I put the remaining prepaid phones from the wall into the cage. Justin vacuummed. He looked hilarious doing it. He's tall and thin. Tara doesn't want to spend the $300.00 for a new vacuum cleaner but I think she'll have to.
After we closed I walked to Wal-Mart. I bought some ground beef and a Red Bull. I waited for Nick on the bench inside the store. I went outside to smoke a cigarette and he showed up while I was out there. Carly and Corey were with him. There was some large flat thing extending into the back seat from the storage space in the back of the station wagon. It was in between Corey and me. It was mostly over our heads but it was slightly cramped. Carly said it was hers. I don't know what it was. I didn't ask.
I was dropped off by the mailboxes in my park. I wanted to get my mail. My Motorhead t-shirt still hasn't come. I'm starting to get concerned.
