I liked being the youngest, then Annalise came along and I became the dreaded middle child. That's worse than being the baby, we get ignored and neglected cause we're not first born and we're not young enough to be cute anymore :laugh::facepalm::( :cry:

Hummmm....funny cause I always thought my middle sis got all of the attention. She still does. All I got were here hand-me-downs:facepalm::lol:

I bet you are ... so glad I don't have to work like you do, you'd never see me! :facepalm: :(

Most weeks aren't to bad but the past 2 weeks have been a PITA!! Plus we found out we have a visit from our district manager & our regional manager. I'm glad I'm not gonna be there but on top of everything thing else we need to get done that was the last thing I needed to worry about today.

    one of the peeps close to him went to his B&M and they said he had an emergency and wouldn't be back for a while....
    Yeah, I saw that ... worrisome isn't it? :unsure:

    Heh, I do get everything and she has my hand me downs..:laugh: Who am I kidding, being the middle child and not only that, the only son! is AWESOOOOOOOME!

    Man, they just keep piling on your work pressure huh?..I agree with MD, no way I'd be able to do all that and come back here to chat. It'd be work, eat, sleep, repeat.

    It's not that bad. I like the busy times like now to be honest (minus the visit from the DM's) but they want to come & see phase 1 of the changes we had to make the other night. But today the new girl was driving me insane. She really needs to pick up the pace on these tasks:grr: I can't stand to be idle for too long. But it us about time for a break though. I'll be taking a weeks vacation next month though & I'm Reggie. I'm gonna be lazy for a couple of days & Reggie & I are going to SC to the beach for a couple of days.

    Night Shad:wub:

    The Sunday thing is why they're coming. Unfortunately the whole Sunday thing was scheduled during the time where we already had to do our regular price & store planner changes. We got a lot of it done though...way more than we expected.

    I'm not really surprised to hear that he offered you a job Shad :)
    I hope it's nothing too bad either but it sure don't sound good :unsure:

    She's ok with some things but she just...how can I say it...she has no sense of urgency. If you say this needs to be done by the end of today. It's not even close to being done. I think it's starting to annoy the other manager too.

    Well, you can't be "nice" with some people :facepalm:

    No you can't. We've both tried to tell her she has to pick up the pace. Guess I'll have to say it not so nicely & she what happens. Her problem is that she's a perfectionist...I kinda am to a certain extent but she'll soon find that with this job you can't be. If we were then nothing would get done:facepalm:

    Yeah, for instance if something needs a new price tag she has to remove each item individually and place the tag just perfectly. We don't have that kinda time there's over 50,000 pieces in our store. That could take all year.

    They're not too bad since we straighten throughout the day. It's all of the T-shirts & little things that can be a mess. We sale a lot of other things like blankets, key chains, game related stuff & stuff that relates to different tv shows & movies. Thankfully most people put stuff they decide not to get in the designated spot so that we can put it back. But during the holidays it's a different story. That's why we wait & alphabetize the store after the holidays are all done.
