Day 14: Mid-30s (brrrr!)
Arrived to learn #1 was down, so was on #2 most of the night (later, I learned #1 had been fixed...damn it!). Did my AP4Me and LU, plus the prelim duties. ASM Shan brought down 2 carts of snacks and asked me to fill in the gaps when I had time, so that's what I did until 8: Ring up customers and figure out how to 'stuff' the shelves. At 8, ran out of $5s and low on $1s, and THAT'S when I learned I could use #1! By now, the snacks were filled, so I filled the bags and emptied the trash. At 8:45, took my break. When I returned, I found my broom and dustpan and started sweeping. Mucked out the mats; fronted the soda. Final customer walked in at 9:30 and near close, I attempted to ring him up. 1st his check was stuck in the machine (it was slightly curled), so I hopped over to #2. Rang him up again, and had to discount the bucket to get the same final cost, lol....Machine refused to do his check; ended up doing it MANUALLY. He finally got his lumber pulled (8 2x12x16) and loaded at 10:20.
HC Kay cleaned me out at 10; I returned items to Tools, and took my trash to the hopper. Jace closed the garage door; I put up my vest and clocked out at 10:30.
Outfit: Black l/s tee, B/W sweater poncho; faded jeggings, red 'crinkle' posts
Day 15: Low 50s
Arrived and took over for Alice. Did the prelim duties and fronted the soda, then brought in carts. Did my LU. We weren't that busy, but I was fairly steady from 6-7. Swept the entire place, and was sent to break at 8. Returned and pulled trash, mucked the mats. HC Shelby R pulled my drawer at 9:30; I hopped over to #2 for the final half hour. No customers. Locked the doors at 9:55; HC Shel cleaned out #2. ASM Charlie brought in the concrete and took my trash. Closed the garage door and returned items to Electrical and Hardware. Clocked out at 10:30.
Outfit: Maroon 3/4 sleeve blouse, black vest, faded jeggings, r/w/b buttons.
Tomorrow, off to Lafayette with Sara and kids to spend the day with Grandma Sally and to see Reagan, then Thursday, off to see Jeff Dunham in E'ville with Kyle and Jeanna:)
Day 16: Low 60s
Arrived and took over for Kem. Really wasn't too busy the 1st hour, but then it picked up. Was able to do my LU and print out my check stub, and do the prelim duties. At 7, I had to call a Code 3 for someone to watch my register so I could take a pit stop. ASM Ian had bought pizza and I consumed several slices. HC Britt sent me to lunch at 7:30 and politely requested I only take 30 mins. Ate my JJ sandwich:) Afterward, swept the place, mucked the mats, and pulled the trash. After HC Britt cleaned me out, returned items to Plumbing and Electrical and Millwork. Clocked out at 10:40.
Outfit: Black baby cable sweater, red NHRA polo, dark jeggings, red 'plate' posts....ones Erica bought for me in 1985.
Off to Washington Fundraiser for the NYC trip in May:)
Day 17: Palm Sunday Low 60s
Walked into a mess today. Lumber associate called in; with the wind, it was cold. When Marilyn left at 4, did the prelim duties. Took my break at 4:45. Came back and did my LU, fronted soda, and began sweeping around 6. Pulled trash and had to shoo people away at closing. HC Shel R cleaned me out; took the trash to the hopper and returned items to Plumbing, Tools, Hardware, and Pets. Clocked out at 8:55.
Outfit: Brown gauze blouse, black vest, dark jeggings, silver crosses
