Ughhhhh. Today just really sucks... I had to get up super early so I could go to work, then there's the fact that i have bronchitis and have to use my inhalers (yes there's more then one, arn't I lucky) all the time. Work was terrible, it's tax free weekend (unless you work at justice then it's a tax reduction weekend because our company is stupid) I only worked four hours but it felt like forever. My morning customers are just as sweet as can be asking me for help and saything thank you when I help them. But then at noon my afternoon customers show up and they're terrible. When you walk in I'm required to greet you and tell you about how the entire store is fourty percent off and then that it's tax "reduction" weekend so you can find some really great deals around the store well my afternoon customers just walk right by without even looking at me or yell at me to leave them alone. Then when they need something from a hook thats higher up they look up and see the fifty signs we have posted around telling people that the store is fourty percent off and then they yell at me because I didn't tell them about the sale and about how I'm a terrible salesperson. It's just freaking great, I really love that part of my job. There's some really crazy people that come to shop at my store... and then there's the really sweet customers who really make it all worth it. There's one lady that comes in all the time and she's just so sweet and she always says please and thank you and actually treats the teenagers with respect, unlike most of the customers, and she treats us like human beings instead of slaves. You'd be surprised how many customers think that because I work in retail I'm not a human being and that I HAVE to do everything they say, no please or thank you required. Ugh I hate those people, and don't think that people who work in retail don't do shitty things to you. I had one customer at christmas who was yelling at me about how slow and stupid I was and how she was in a hurry, she bought like three or four bags of stuff. I left one little sensor on one little sweater at the bottom of one of those bags... So she beeped at the door and the front person had to dig through all three bags just to find that one little sweater, wasting at least five minutes. Salespeople do that on purpse if you're rude, well at least the ones who are sick of being treated like shit. :D Oh well I guess I'm done with my little rant about people who suck. Alright back to why my day sucks :) After work on my way home I notice my car is making a weird noise, so of course I'm like whoohoo something else wrong with this piece of shit. So I text my dad and he gets me an appointment at his cousins shop for monday. I work everyday this weekend, and I need my car. I can't drive it though. And then tuesday I have to work from eleven to three and I might have a hair appointment at three fourty five. I don't know though because my cousin might not be back in missouri so if I don't get my haircut I get to have shitty hair for the first day of school. Yay. I thought I was going to be able to just get off work and drive as fast as possible over to my hair appointment which is actually just about fourty five minutes away from my work. I can't drive there though. My mother, who is late for EVERYTHING, has to pick me up. She's going to pick me up at like three twenty. So we're going to be late for my hair appointment, which is going to take at least three hours. And then after it's over I get to wait half an hour in the lobby for my mother to get there to pick me up. And she'll be late for that too. It's going to be fucking great, I'm really looking forward to it.
