Sorry for not updating yesterday for the people who are actually curious. My first day of work was... was.....

HORRIBLE. D:>

I'm a part-timer, and yesterday I had to work a grand total of nine hours and fifteen minutes. Picking up and opening boxes, then rotating items so the oldest ones face out (because, of course, the people have to buy the older ones before they can buy newer ones), walking back and forth between isles, and packing crates onto carts... My feet were in so much pain when I got home. I had to run back to the store after work to pick up some new shoes, with gel in the heels. Today, my feet didn't hurt as bad, but they still hurt.

Work today wasn't so bad. I was hired, first of all, by my mom's brother-in-law, Eugene. He makes all the orders, so I don't have to worry about that. Working under him is the full-time backstocker, Rita, who's been training me and showing me around. Rita drove me down to the Wal-Mart in Central City today (which really isn't that hard to get to), and we worked there for about four hours. Hard work there. But then we went to a Kroger in Powderly, and got a lot done in about three hours, and I was a lot more productive down there, probably because most of my items were on the floor, and I was able to sit down most of the time.  Rita said I did a good job cleaning the floor with my ass. :XD:

Anyway, tomorrow, Rita has the day off, but unfortunately, I do not. I'll be working by myself, hitting both Owensboro Wal-Marts. I'm a little worried about my capabilities, but, Eugene told me I shouldn't take but three hours, so if I come in at 8AM like I usually do, I should be done by lunch. So, Sara, Kristin, I should be able to make it to Art Club. I hope both of you can, too. Wish me luck, everybody.

lol part-time is just a title. it basically means "hay guys, we know part timers are only supposed to work a certain number of hours a week, but how about you take a couple of extra shifts, seeing as all the oldbies here decided to take off the same week"

seriously, i work part time and I used to pull 51 hour weeks back in the summer time. It was tough, yeah, but getting paid was awesome
