Dan picked me up. Corey was with him. I was dropped off at Radio Shack. Tony and Ken were working. I brought a dirty dish from home and I washed it right away in the storage room. I punched in even though I was originally scheduled to start at 4:00 p.m. and it was only 1:20 p.m. I did various shit. Tony was working on the planogram Jose and I did. It was shitty work anyway. After he was done with that I used a scanning gun to get the prices of items that didn't have a price tag. Ken put away the order while I was doing this. There were many new items so I got the scanning gun out again and got the new items' prices. I created tags for them all.
The day was pretty slow. I did deal with customers but my biggest sale was a home telephone. I forgot to mention that I bought an alarm clock yesterday. I bought it because the one I bought on Jan. 7 is too bright. I asked Tony if I could return it for store credit. He said yes. I'll do that tomorrow. The new clock I bought is an extra loud Timex T110T. http://www.timexaudio.com/products.asp?dept_id=1005&product_id=10015
It retails at our store for $14.99 but I got it for $7.57 plus tax. The discount for the employees at Radio Shack is 10% over cost. I think that's a pretty good deal. It changed a couple of months ago from 10% off anything in the store and 30% off any Radio Shack brand items. The discount doesn't apply to TVs, cell phones, or computers.
After I created the tags for the new items Sorted through the new shit and put stuff away. I shot up in the back room. I called China 1 and put in my order. I walked there. I ate there. I ate the shrimp egg foo yung all day special. While I was sitting alone at my table eating, minding my own fucking business, Janet sat down at my table. I didn't like that too much but I dealt with it. Janet is a door greeter at Wal-Mart. She was at China 1 waiting for the food she ordered to be cooked/prepared. She ordered a carry out. I talked with her as pleasant as can be. We talked about things people talk about, the weather, other people we know, our jobs. Her food was ready after a few mins. and she left. I finished my food and walked back to Radio Shack.
Ken and I hung up the multiple new batteries that came in. There was all different kinds. Ken had to rearrange the items on a panel to accomodate the new batteries. That was the remainder of the day. It was slow at night too. Tony left just before Ken and I hung up the new batteries.
I vacuummed for the first time with the new vacuum tonight. It rocks. It's an Oreck U2000H. http://commercial.oreck.com/prod_more_info_xl2000.html It's blue. The old vacuum was an Oreck U2000R and it was red. Both vacuums are very light.
After I closed the store I walked to Wal-Mart. I looked for Nicole in Subway but she wasn't working. I saw Melody at a register. I went to her and asked if she could give me a ride home. I offered her $5.00. She said yes. She didn't get off until 10:30 p.m. and it was only 9:12 p.m. I shopped in Wal-Mart. I bought food and a shirt. I bought other stuff too. I bought baby wipes and dishwashing liquid. The shirt I bought was only $3.00 on clearance. It's a dark green plaid shirt that only lumberjacks and lesbians wear. I shouldn't say shit like that but you get the idea of what the shirt looks like. I checked out through Melody's register. I was her very last customer. I used my Quest card to pay for the food. I thought my benefits might be exhausted for the month but they weren't. I used my checkcard to pay for everything else.
Melody went to the back. The keys to her car were in her coat and her coat was in the back room. I talked to Doris while Melody was in the back. Doris offered me a ride while Melody was gone. It would be easier for Doris to take me home because it was less out of her way than Melody's. Doris asked for $2.00 for gas. I considered her offer and acccepted it. When Melody came back up front I told her. She was cool with it. Doris went to the back room to punch out. Melody stayed with me until Doris returned. Doris and I went to her car. It's a silver Toyota Camary. It looked to be about a 2002 model. I loaded my stuff in the back seat. Her trunk wasn't available. She waited for the car to warm up. While she did this I stepped outside and smoked a cigarette. It was cold outside. It had been all day. The wind was blowing and that made it even colder. I didn't finish the cigarette and I got back in Doris' car. She drove me home after that. She missed the entrance to the park at first so she turned around in someone's driveway and then got me home. She said to me to keep the $2.00.
