At Wally World we had a worker throw a hissy fit last week and walk out in the middle of his shift because management wanted him to work. This morning another worker decided to wander around the store instead of doing what he was told. The night before, the big boss had to tell anotherContinue reading “Hemroid Harry”

Rebound
Today is hump day and I am feeling a little better. I got up and sorted some old clothes to give away. Looks like I will need to go to the laundry to wash them. At least the weather is nice.
Emailing it in
Spent most of the day in bed. Still have to go to work tonight.
Persephone days winding down
On January 20 Persephone Days come to an end as there will be just over 10 hours of daylight. Obviously too cold to set plants out, but I can put them in a window sill and expect them to grow. It is also time to start preparing seeds for transplant.
Hard to get help, small business edition.
I had to get gas earlier this week. When I went in to pay, I noticed a help wanted sign on the door. I remembered seeing the same sign up just before Thanksgiving because it was just after I went to get gas after work one day and the store was closed.

Overtime
I had to replace my water heater last week in addition to remodeling the bathroom. It looks like I better get some overtime while I still can. I haven’t decided which of my two nights off I am going to work yet.
Power Outage.
I was just about to get off work when the power went off at Wally World. The place was nearly dark so we were trying to find the flashlight button on our devices, only to find out the devices have no button. People who used their own phone had no such problem. It turns outContinue reading “Power Outage.”
Prospects and suspects
The boss is back from vacation. Now we will see how long our recent hires are going to last. I am sure some of them are not going to make it. Working overnights is not easy, but if you are willing to work and can keep a steady work rate, the place is not thatContinue reading “Prospects and suspects”
