Work Place 9.27

Today started off well: I got a wake-up call at 930am and even though I wanted to sleep in [since I usually don't work on Sundays] I got up and arrive at work on time >.>. I had hash browns for breakfast... kind of and the work place didn't have any drama going on... on the surface.

It wasn't slow nor was it busy, it was just right for me to do a little bit of everything since the bosses left to have fun with their kids and put me in charge again - which was okay... I suppose since it wasn't that busy [supposedly]. But it was busy for me because I did a little bit of everything even though bossman said that I couldn't go into the back... but I did anyway. I didn't want to bother the back people with small jobs that I can do myself. It wasn't that bad... but I guess it wasn't that great either because they were pretty much in two different groups, there was no in between and I didn't quite fit with any of the groups either. One group was two friends who knew each other since middle school and the other group was Spanish speaking who knew very little English but I can communicate well with both groups just.. didn't fit in =)

At the end of the shift we did better than I thought since usually it would be 14 instead of 18. Which was good... given the slow economy.

And I wish I was in love so I would have something to think about instead of work. =_=.
Everyone else at the store has drama but I don't have any... which is a
very boring life. I like my workplace better than other places that I've
been because of the close knit family that we have. We talk about everything and anything. It's rather fun and interesting rather than sitting at a desk, secluded from everyone else.

Flowers

the flowers yearn for the sun to shine
reaching towards the heavens for a drop of rain
hoping for more than they can gain

the flowers huddle together as one
sharing what has never been done
expanding more than they can hope for

---------------------------------------------------

and now for something completely different:

Relationships are rather awkward and different and when people want to become more than just friends it can really break the relationship. It's weird too because I haven't talked to this person in months and the first... well not the first... but one of the things he does is confesses which totally threw me into a loop. I mean, what the heck... I haven't talked to you in months and that's what you say to me? And the hard part is that I don't see him that way, he's just a friend. And another thing, he lives elsewhere and long distance relationships just don't cut it. When he just suddenly confesses it makes me think of what made him do it.
When I said no, we're just friends, that basically ended our relationship as friends which really sucks. It's rather depressing but I can't help it. I can't just accept when I don't feel the same.
Very troublesome =/

Black Out?

There was hail, lightning, and then thunder this early morning and then
a blackout. I never liked the dark and sleeping in the dark is less
appealing. Even though it only lasted two hours it seemed longer than
that. 6am is so dark and the clouds made it even darker.

I am not looking forward to switching rooms in two months. My current
room is dark enough but to move to the first floor where there is no
light is just horrible. I need to invest into a night light. Preferably
one that can live on batteries instead of an outlet.

But who knows, plans may change... or not... depends... A room with
possible spiders that can crawl into the cracks or a room with...
spiders that live next to the front door that might crawl into the
cracks and total darkness. Both are just.. o so tempting. But two months
is a long time... kind of...

Customer 9.10

I hate it when customers wear their stupid sunglasses into the store and doesn't realize the lights are out and we don't have any electricity. And our greeting was Hi, sorry but chicken only and cash only and soda machine is not working. But this one dumb betch gets mad at us because we couldn't give her what she wanted and didn't realize until we repeated three effin' times that the electricity was down. Dumb Betch. I wanted to smack her a good one. Had the effin' nerve to give us an effin attitude when she couldn't take her effin' sunglasses off or pay attention to us when we announced that the energy was off. Dumb gei betch

Some other customers were like that but less of an annoyance and not that big of an attitude.

[edit]
There was a fire at a PG&E substation - not even sure if the power is back on yet for the store
