Fri turned out to be OK. I was just wishin that nobody would come in and ask about cell phones and plans like they usually do on my Fri shifts :P Even better than that, hardly anybody came in at all. I made peanuts in commissions but I didn't even care, I just wanted to be done with work. I pretty much just merchandised and stood around. Godwin came to visit me :)
But Kane and Evan were supposed to come in at 1 and neither of them did. I was like, what the eff...I'm leavin anyway, I'm not coverin the Comm dept. I ended up stayin til 1:30 for some reason or another (oh yeah, there were actually customers) and then Kane asked me to stay 15 mins longer cuz he had to run the floor. Evan, BTW, didn't realize his shift was at 1 and not 2 like he thought :P Then Clarence asked to talk to me if I wasn't busy and I knew this was one of those sales targets meetings and how my PSP percentage sucks. Of course he gave that to me but that basically turned into takin up an hr of my time. Like WTF, guess he didn't care that I might've had somewhere to be. My schedule said I was done at 1, not 3. But man, I was seriously thinkin about how much I've started to hate this job during that session. There's so much goddamn pressure on sellin fuckin PSP and it's really irritating. Maybe it's my presentation and approach, fine, but some ppl just WON'T buy it! I always get the ones with the reasons. And it's just not in me to push push push. It's uncomfortable for me with all this focus on this service which I don't even really see the value of. I'd only buy PSP with my product cuz I get 50% off the price with staff purchase.
Anyway...speakin of staff purchases, I finally bought myself a new cell phone! I don't use it all that much in the first place so I got a pay-as-you-go Solo phone...in blue :) Free text msgs, thank you! It's all I ever wanted, haha. I got that with discount plus the 2 yr PSP, which all came up to exactly $88. I could only pay with my Mastercard but if you do staff purchase with credit cards, there's an upcharge cuz it costs the store whenever someone uses a credit card, so Godwin pointed out that I could buy a gift card of the amount of $88 with my Mastercard then use the gift card to buy the phone ;) Genius.
I've spent a lot of time learnin how to use my new phone and programming everybody's freakin numbers in it.
So after work on Fri later on I was tired so I took a nap. When I woke up it was like 7:30 and I was all, huh? Huh? Do I have work?? I didn't know where I was, haha. Talk about out of it.
Then me, L, and Debbie went out to Philthy McNasty's for a lot of bar food and some drinks :P Our waitress spilled a plate of quesadilla that we ordered. She was really nice about it and she was a sweet girl so we didn't care, then she said she'd bring us a round of drinks on her just for that. They were $3 drinks that night anyway so I ended up payin for 1 when I had 3 :D Nice. Then we danced and mocked loud, ditzy girls near us, haha. When we were about to leave a couple girls who were wasted came up to us and asked if we wanted to meet a really nice coat check guy, haha. One of them said she was married (she looked 20) so she couldn't take him but he was into brunettes so...she directed her attention to me :P She was really sellin it and L wanted to jet but she kept at it and even linked her arm into mine to pull me towards this mystery boy. God, it was like tryin to get rid of a drunk guy who wants to hook up with you and he won't take a no, haha.
That was fun. So today me, Chris, and Al went downtown to get Chris' tattoo done. She went to the same place I got mine done and even got Stuart, the same artist that I got too. It took not even 15 mins but apparently she was in some pain. She was like, "You liar! You said it wouldn't hurt!" Haha.
It was SO MOTHERFUCKIN COLD out today!! Holy shit. We would've done some shoppin down Queen St but it was not the weather to be walkin outside. We got some ice cream/bubble tea/Freshly Squeezed juice then headed back up. We chilled at Chris' cuz it's the last chance we're gonna have time to spend with her cuz she's leavin for Austin again on the 21st. She made dinner while me and Al went to Blockbuster to rent a movie. Somehow Al used a super old coupon that still worked and we ended up payin like 2 bucks for Old School, haha.
And now I'm home...kinda dreadin work tomorrow. See, it's gotten so it's not fun anymore. Yeah yeah, I know work isn't supposed to be fun but you know what I mean. Hey, even one of their mottos is "Have fun while being the best"...so there.
OK I should be headin off to bed soon but I still haven't gotten around to the many things I need to get done so I'm gonna go do them. Open to close tomorrow, yay!
