Life in Lumber: Y5, W18

 Day 75:  $9600 (and 5 cents!)

Arrived early and took pics of our rolling laundry baskets for Mom.  Clocked in and took over for B, then had to call up the website for a customer to look at the different shingles we offer.  Turned him over to Loader A, as I was getting busy at the register. Did the prelim duties, fronted the soda, and discovered my mop was MIA.  Did my LU and AP4Me.  Was fairly steady all evening until 8. McKay sent me to break at 7:15, and when I returned, continued ringing up customers. Around 8:15, went ahead and pulled the trash, and started spot-sweeping. Brought in the cull cart at 9:45, and locked the doors at 10.  Helped Loader A bring in carts after taking the trash to the hopper. He brought in the concrete; I shut the large door and returned items to Millwork, Aisle 49, Plumbing, Wire, Tools, ISLG, and took a tub faucet to RTM. Hung up my vest and clocked out at 10:40.

ASM K left at 6:)

Outfit:  Blue/white stripe tee, cut off capris, sapphire hoops


Day 76:  $7513

Arrived and took over for B, and was fairly busy the 1st 30 mins, then was able to do the prelim duties.  Needed an o/r for a damaged trim board; SM J arrived to give it to me. Did my LU, and Loader E found my dust mop, so swept the area. Needed a pit stop at 7, and another one at 9. At 8:30, pulled the trash, and helped Jaylee fill the soda coolers. Loader E took the trash and brought in the concrete; I brought in the cull cart and checked out my final customer at 10.  Locked the doors, then returned items to Paint, LG, and Seasonal. Clocked out at 10:30.

ASM K off today!!  ASM S closed:)

Outfit:  Gray LU tee, cut off capris, blue danglies


Day 77:  $5827

Arrived and took over for B; did the prelim duties and rang up customers. Fronted soda. HC J came down and hung around for maybe 15 mins until she left, and gave me an o/r on a discounted plywood. Em came down at 7:15 and sent me to break, then Austin did the same thing an hour later!  Told him to go take his own, and he agreed to take my shifts on the 14th and 16th.  Now crossing my fingers I have the funds to go see Foreigner/Loverboy on July 21st.  Saw Randy B (pacemaker surgery scheduled for the 5th) and Nan. Another customer bought me a 3 Musketeers:)  Brought in the cull cart at 9:45 and locked the doors at 10. Took the trash to the hopper when HC C cleaned me out. Returned items to Electrical and Tools, and sent some tile spacers to Flooring with one of the night shift workers while I took a pit stop. Clocked out at 10:25.

ASM K was off:)

Outfit:  Brown tee, cut off capris, neutral beaded danglies

Day 78:  $11,924 ($9715 between 5-8:30!)

Was BUSY!  Barely had time to get the prelim duties finished; was steady all the way until HC J sent me to break at 8:30. Came back and swept, and fronted the Mr. Dew side of the cooler. Locked the doors at 10, brought in the cull cart, and while OSLG Blake brought in the concrete, I took the trash to the hopper. After HC J cleaned me out, returned items to Electrical, Paint, and Hardware. ASM K asked me to take 4 boxes to Receiving, and HC J wanted me to put up her phone, Dealt with the cardboard, retrieved a roll of Lg trashbags for outside garbage, and put them in my locker. Put up J's phone and my vest and went up front. HC J asked me to take back the cart to Fashion Bath and some items back to Lumber, so after going to FB, retrieved the trash bags from my locker and went back to Lumber.  Put the sealant on the Pro desk and the trash bags in the cabinet.  Went back up front and clocked out at 10:50.

ASM K is off tomorrow!!!!

Outfit:  Black blouse, new dark capris, peach and gold danglies


Day 79:  Rare Saturday $5102

Today was long.  Began by driving to Clinton, In and going to Shia's bridal brunch.  Was fun!  Ate bagals and cream cheese, and fruit, and played 4 games....won two of them, but only accepted one prize. Then was off to Kyle and Jeanna's for Olivia's 1st birthday party.  Ate cucumber sandwiches and pasta salad, and Sara's Mac-n-cheese. Video'd Miss O devouring her cupcake:)  Then off to work.

Arrived; was surprised to see a new girl, Kari, working. I took over #1 and turned on the fan, and was fairly busy.  Did the prelim duties while she was on break, then things died down, so I fronted the soda and did a quick pop count.  Went down to get the soda, and had to return, because K didn't know how to load an LAR. Showed her how, then resumed my soda stocking. Hopped back on a register to help with the line, then put away all the soda.  K left at 7, so started sweeping. Dawson sent me to break at 7:30....just as the storm hit. Afterwards, I rang up a few customers, then pulled the trash and started the closing duties. I'd remembered to take my Clorox wipes, so sanitized all the registers and counters. Locked the doors at 10, then final customer arrived.  After he left, Loader E brought in the concrete, and I closed the large door.  Loader N took my trash down; HC J cleaned me out and I walked her up front, returning an item to Tools.  Put up my vest and clocked out at 10:30.

Outfit:  Black/gray/white square neck blouse, new dark capris, black danglies


Day 80:  Rare Sunday $8590

Arrived and hopped on 1, taking over for Loader E. Was steady until 4:30, then took a quick break, since Marilyn left at 5. When she left, I did the prelim duties, then was fairly busy until 6:30. Pulled trash, sanitized the registers, and swept the area, then at 8 had 4 customers. Locked the doors as ASM S cleaned me out, then opened the large door and put the trash in the hopper; Loader E brought in the cull cart AND the concrete; closed the door and returned items to Tools and Aisle 10. Put up my vest. Clocked out at 8:30.
