Chad picked me up and dropped me off at Delmart. I went inside but then went outside to smoke a cigarette. I came back in and relieved Darlene. Steve was there but he didn't stay long. My entire shift was busy. It was a nice day out and the first day this yr. I've worn shorts, I think. It might have been a record high today. We got over 80 degrees F. I wish there was the little circle degree symbol on a keyboard. All I did during my shift was deal with customers. There was a moment where I had time to clean the cabinets but I didn't have many breaks.
Chrissy, a regular customer, said she would pick me up after work. Mandy showed up on time. After Chrissy being 15 mins. late I called her, no answer. I shot up in the back hallway. I called Chrissy again when I came out. She answered this time. It seems she had forgotten to pick me up. She said she would send someone to pick me up. That someone was a taxi. I asked the driver if I had to pay for the ride before I got in. He said the owner wanted $10.00. I refused the ride. I went back into Delmart and started calling people. I had brought my cell phone with me today. By today I mean yesterday. I always do. My cell phone has no service but it does have all my contacts still in it. I can add contacts to it too still. I went down the list. I called Andrea, no answer. After I called Andrea the taxi driver knocked on the window and motioned for me to come out. I did. He said he could give me a ride for free. I accepted and got in. I sat in the front seat. The driver's name was Aaron. He was about 27 yrs. old. He said the owner knew Chrissy. I don't know if Chrissy paid for the ride, if she blows the owner, or if the owner won at the casino and was in a good mood. It doesn't really matter but I didn't want Chrissy paying for the ride. I told Aaron to drop me off at the mailboxes in my park. I didn't want him or Chrissy knowing which trailer is mine. Since I only had $1.00 on me, I didn't tip him.
