First day back to work.


Well I must start by saying that I have not seen 6 o'clock show up twice in 1 day in a loooong time. I managed to get up on time drag myself to the shower stretch a smile across my face and make it to work on time. Arriving at work was great...there were a lot of happy people to see me back. It feels good to be missed...I wouldn't go as far as saying loved lol...but at least I could tell I was and am cared about.


The day started off slow I was shown how to check movies in and deal with all that paperwork stuff...which was partially my first time doing...but I suceeded. I had that done and the front end cleaned by 9 am. With in my first two hours I had already been cussed out by a customer via phone...as she swore on her life she had her movies turned in...they showed up later in the day when I did a 2nd check in the box...surprise surprise. Anywho, about 9:30 they brought out the HBA merchandise from the truck to be checked in and put away. Between messing with that mess, working my till, helping random customers and answer phone calls I managed to get all the HBA merchandise checked in and put away by 1:30pm.


Now here's the funny thing, I have never really worked 'side by side' with Tara and Wayne...today was my first day. I must say I believe I impressed them when I showed them all I had accomplished. At 1:30 I was done with EVERYTHING...there was nothing else to do and the customers were slow today. I went to Tara and Wayne asking for more work and they just laughed me off telling me to go do the HBA. It took me dragging them over to the area and showing them that it was all checked in AND put away where it belongs. They had nothing else to say besides go to lunch lol.


That's another problem I had...I HATE TAKING LUNCH BREAKS!!! I'd rather be working I can't sit down for 15 minutes much less 30 minutes. So I just took it easy and goofed around with my co workers. After a long day of being cussed out by customers, managers and co workers picking on me, me being fussed out to slow down with my work process, fighting not to take a lunch break...I'd have to say the day didn't end half bad lol. I am happy to be back although it is bit of a change and I really work alone at the front...I really had a great day and enjoy the crew that I work with. I am excited to finish out the rest of the week. Tomorrow I get to sleep in an extra hour...WOOHOO!!!
