Today was ok. Some stress. Opening manager demanded I print out her paperwork this morning. Then had me working on her new birthday sign for the regular morning oldies customers and got mad when I tried to do what she wanted without telling me how she wanted it and doing it not the way she wanted >.< So then I did what she wanted and she didn't like it. Go fig.
If I think of it I'll take my gleams paints and see if that'll work. She gave me stencils to make the letters then complained about the pencil lines gonk Guess there's no pleasing anyone . . .
Got the van fixed. Will pay on Friday. The guy at Midas is giving me one heck of a deal (a $500+ job for only $260.) I'll pay him the rest later (as long as he'll accept it.)
Today was pretty warm, almost 50* on the bank thermometer. Hardly any breeze so it was a perfect day. Though my parking spot at home was basically mud which means pretty soon I won't be able to park there and will have to park further away. Ah well. 'tis life.
Opened grill and managed to get all but a couple items done before we opened. Was proud if myself.
We had major technical difficulties at work during lunch today. For 20 minutes we lost cash (the register refused to believe the order had been paid and once the shift manager could figure out how to void the orders with a non responsive computer register it refused to believe that there was not an order on the tandem register sweatdrop ) But, by voiding it out, even though the time was still counting up on the monitor, the system read those orders as being served and cleared and so our times were pretty decent. One manager went out and told customers DT was closed, and inside we were backing front counter and telling people (I was order taker) that we couldn't take orders outside but could inside. Many left angry and without food (we wasted quite a bit.) But most were ok with it.
Tomorrow will go in at 6 instead of 11. No set time to get out. If I work my shift plus the extra that'll be a 10 hour day and 2 hrs overtime.
Hope in under 3 weeks to hear about the home equity loan I applied for. That way I can get money to do home repairs, pay back bills and get money for the retreat and PortCon biggrin I just hope I qualify. I have one mortgage with that bank (and a checking account with them too) so another one should be ok. I hope.
