Last Day of the Target Two Day Sale

Well it was the last day of that two day sale and it was worse than yesterday. Thankfully, nothing really happened with any customers, but the worst thing that happened was with a fellow team member. There were three of us in Garden so while I was zoning and the other team member was manning the register the team member (code name K) insists that she go to the morning huddle to let us in on anything important. After fifteen minutes, K exits out the store with her purse through Garden saying that she volunteered to go home early... Who's supposed to cover my break while the other guy is on lunch? Who's gonna help back up the spells of paying customers while someone cuts the trees? That bitch , I mean K, just used the huddle as an excuse to talk to the manager in order to get off work early. Thanks for telling us the important information K; you don't even look real...

Black Friday Spiel


First off, I'd like to thank the blogs Retail Therapy and Retail Hell Underground for adding me to their blogroll list [: Check them out on my blogroll list.
Well for Black Friday, I worked in the God forsaken Lawn & Garden section, of course. It really wasn't as bad as I thought it would be since no one really complained about anything. People were surprisingly nice. Maybe it has to do something with the economy? I finally got to use the chainsaw again, which makes my job the coolest job in the world for a month.
Anyways, I think tomorrow is gonna be the worst day since its a Saturday, meaning everyone has a day off. Yup, I'm scheduled to be in Garden again and hope nothing stressful happens. But if something does happen, at least I'll have something to write about.

Happy Thanksgiving!

So this Thanksgiving, I was at home all alone because the rest of my family went to Vegas while I had to stay home because I couldn't get my time off requests approved... It was less painful than I thought it would be though. Well since its Thanksgiving tonight, everybody knows what that means, BLACK FRIDAY IS TOMORROW! I work in Garden that day which kinda sucks but at least I get my chainsaw back! I'll let you guys know on what tomorrow brings.
