Seven days till Christmas

Well here is it only a short time to go and I am not even close to being ready!!!

I think maybe I should start wrapping the gift today since I am off work.

Speaking of work! I had to work the weekend and still after 5 years at working in retail I am surprise at some of the really dumb question I get. First of all I work at a close -out buy -out store, if you see it and want it you better get it because it might not be there tomorrow! We have the same people that are always there shopping and I always get the same question...Are you getting more in on the truck??? Excuse Me!!! How long have you been coming here and how many times must I tell you.

Now the kicker is I have a cold and it has left me with no voice above a whisper, so very hard to talk to the customers, but that doesn't seam to matter they just keep asking the same things over and over again. No matter how many time I tell the same customer that we aren't getting anymore Christmas stuff ( it is already mark down to 50% off) or No they won't be sending more toys! They still keep want to know when they will get here. I do have to say for me to talk and be able to hear me I am shouting...lol. So I do get some satisfaction from it...ROFl and they don't know my anger.

I really enjoy my job 95% of the time and I really like working with the customers, but at this time of the year I swear they all become brain dead! I will never understand why people have to trash a store! We won't be able to get the store clean up for about 2 weeks. As fast as you get one area clean up and move to the next...go back to where you were and it is trash again...AMAZES ME!

Oh have to tell you about some of the help we hired for the season...It is a bunch of sloths, they can't move any slower unless they are in the stop mode!!!! I am 3 times their age and can run circle around them on a bad day. What really scare me is the fact that this is the next generation to take over!!!! They will be the ones taking care of me in the nursing home!!!! I think I will take my chance and just live at home till I die! It would be easier. I have my GED and this bunch have finish HS and can't even count! I have caught so many mistake they have made on the cash!
Well that is my grip for today ....time to wrap a few things and take a few pills for the cold.
Tah Tah for now and have a great day!

Christmas is a race to see which gives out first - your money or your feet.
