Ain't you glad...

Ain't you glad... you are not me today.

Today's adventures: Rained since I got up this morning that switched to fluffy rain (coworker's words) to rain to snow to rain. Then debit cards had a glitch in the system and had every customer do their card as a credit to make it go through. Next, broke a nail so every sweater I pick up catches on my nail. 2 customers couldn't pay their bill so said they would get their checkbook in thier car and after 3 hours never came back. (I once had a customer say that and came back 6 hours later, but by then we put her items back and I asked my coworkers when she left if this lady parked her car in another city). And I got a customer mad at me temperarily. She demanded the senior discount we had yesterday and demanded I call the store manager to give me the ok for that. I scanned her items and she yelled at me for not calling the store manager. I explained I don't need to call for a trivial amount off, I will just give it to her. If she wanted 90% off, then I will call the manager. And the kicker, someone call in sick so I was offered additional 4 hours, making the total 10 hours. After work, had to buy a few things with coupons I have been cutting out. Man my feet hurt.

On a better note, I am wearing my new slashed jeans (as we called it in the 80's) so I am happy. Plus I paid off a credit card loan after 3 years stemming from returning to school to learn make-up artistry in the hope of changing careers. Didn't work as planned. But then, does anything go to plan?

PS. Forgot: I might have overstepped boundaries by rearranging a jeans table (I'm cashier so not my concern). New pink jeans were hidden behind two tables so what customer would find them and if they did, how would they know looking for sizes that they are located behind 2 tables?
