From The Stupid Files: Y7, W15

Day 50: Low 80s; sunny; 95 t/a

ASM:  Maria

HC: Austin

Loader:  Chris (borrowed from LG)

1) Was with new trainee Diana for 2 hours, and when things were slow, she slightly irritated me by flipping cash box and the magnet. Joe arrived, obviously NOT feeling well; I told him to go home.

2) After D left at 5, I was slammed, plus needed 2 Code 50s, 2 forklift drivers, and one guy wanted 2 pallets of concrete!

3) Kylee sent me to lunch at 8, and I forgot to take the coffee pot with me.

4) Somehow, I managed to charge a woman's family for 91 bags of concrete. After an hour, I did finally figure out how to return it w/o her being there, and thankfully the phone had a call log, so I could call her back and tell her!

Outfit:  Red LU tee, long capris, silver spirals

Off tomorrow!

Day 51: Hot, sunny, mid 80s; 95 t/a

ASM:  Shannon

HC:  Kaitlyn

Loaders:  Peyton, Jax

1) Slammed at 5:05-5:35; no one came for my o/r; no one came for Code 50s; one of my customers heckled me. Told him there was perfectly good self-checkout at the other end; otherwise, cool his jets b/c I was going as fast as I could.

Diana came down and helped with a few customers, but didn't stick around. I wasn't sure if she was supposed to give me a break, or was there to help.  Kinda pissed me off when she left and I still had a damn line!

2) Slammed again an hour later, and another customer heckled me.  Told them the same thing!

3) Woman needed an a/c unit, but it was over her weight limit to carry. Fortunately, Peyton was able to go get it for her and take it to her car.

4) Learned Brea is leaving us for CVS.

5) Woman wanted a delivery, but pouted when she saw the $79 fee and the fact she couldn't get it until Sat.  Went home and did a PU later.

6) Having a walk-through tomorrow, so Peyton and Jax were busy stocking shelves.

Day 53:  Rare Sun Sunny, low 80s; 108 t/a

ASM:  Shannon

HC:  Austin

Loader:  Joe

1) Knew things were bad when I heard Marilyn page for '2nd cashier to lumber pleeeease!"

2) Hopped on #2 and stayed there for 30 mins, then hopped to #1.....and within 15 mins, the keyboard wouldn't respond.  So back to #2, until Matt and Austin fixed it (Matt blew on it???)

3) Was irritated at 7 when I discovered the coffee carafe FULL...I hadn't had time to check it before I'd taken my break.  We're NOT SUPPOSED TO MAKE COFFEE ON THE WEEKENDS!!!

4) Had 5 customers walk in after 7:30....and three after 7:50!

5) Final customer was checked out at 8:06/

6) It was leave-everything-in-lumber night.

7) Customer told me he needed help, but 'you're wearing a LU uniform, so probably no help either'.  Told him to try me....turns out he'd been given the wrong insulation machine.  I proved him I DID know what I was talking about!

Outfit:  Blessed G'ma tee, long capris, cross earrings
