ikyrianOut of random curiosity, how would I manage to speak to someone if I'm never online? Cuz that seems to be the only way I ever get into contact with anyone. Exception, of course, being Brandy, who does call every so often. (And whom I would call back if my brother ever remembers to give me messages. 9_9.)
But work keeps me amazingly busy. Whoddathunkit? I have this mantra and it goes like this: I hate my job. I hate my job. I hate my job. I hate my job. repeated ad naseum. Generally whenever I'm asked an asinine question like, "Where's your maternity section?" when they're standing in the middle of it. I've come to realize that I'm not a person who can handle a straight nine to five (or, in my case, a 3-12) job. Well, not a menial, boring job like this. Just yesterday my departmental manager told that they need to promote me to manager quick because I'm way to smart to be spending my life to in a job like this. I agree with her on that last statement, but I didn't have the heart to tell her that I'm going to England in the fall. Harlene's so nice that I hate to disappoint her.
Interesting note: I now know four people who have "arlene" in their names:
Arlene Williams (a sweet lady whith whom I worked with at The VAPeddlar.)
Darlene (CSM at Wal-Mart - actually her name's really spelled Darlaine, but it's pronounced like Darlene.)
Harlene (my departmental manager at Wally World.)
Karlene (future roommate in England. heeeee.)
Anyway, the job sucks but the pay is really good. Although, I do hear that Costco pays better ($10/hr), so I may try to switch jobs. Heh. Not that that one would be any better. Except the pay.
Ugh. Anyway. BRANDY. We need to talk about hotels and such! If you see this tonight, can you give a good time for me to call you tomorrow? If not, I'll probably call around eleven and leave a message.

Date: 2004-06-30 07:41 pm (UTC)That's my mantra too, except it runs like this: I hate Walmart! I wish it would go down in a ball of flames (or a massive conflagration). I can't wait until Sept. 19th (the day I can finally quit). Walmart shoppers are the bane of human existance. Damn Walmart and it's brand of capitalism, etc, etc.
I'd say I'll never work in retail again, but will probably have to as have to pay the bills until one of my novels make me famous.
