Got sent home early from work today because if I stayed I would have been in overtime hours. Yahtzee!!! Not only does that mean I now have an open evening, but I also can afford to go out and live it up. I had no idea I was so close to forty hours this week, I'm not surprised at all though. My heart beats can be measured in price sales. It's ridiculous. I did have a wonderful heart to heart with a customer who also works retail. I had to bite my tongue to the point of bleeding because a woman at another register was yelling at a coworker of mine. So instead of having to be removed by mall security, I just kept my mouth shut. However I couldn't keep from throwing the clothes at my register around. So then I had to apologize to my customer, which is when she revealed that me and her are part of the same secret society. The Scorned Retail Covenant. She even offered to say something to the bitch customer because she knew I couldn't. She was a real sweetheart. We talked about how all our friends think we are scrooges because we don't like the holidays, but it's impossible to like them when you work retail. You don't countdown until they arrive, you countdown until they are over. I almost undercharged her just because she was so awesome. So having ended my shift with her, and now knowing that I get to have some fun tonight, my night is looking up. Although tomorrow I have thirteen hour day, so that sucks. Yes, thirteen.You read that correctly. Gotta make that money.
Now I'm off to the bar, to hopefully have some more heart to hearts with friends and possibly, cute strangers.
