Today

[queenofmean]

...Is the first day I will openly admit to HATING my job.

I've had silly questions asked by customers regarding certain material balloons and then their ability to accept the answer and to actually do the job the way they want it isn't possible.

Why don't we cardboard boxes?

On the plus side...I had a lady come in looked around the shop to see if she was alone and as do you have any 'dirty' cards. And my wee friend came in just as I was ready to post...she made my day too. Love her so much...95 and still going strong! Such a character.

Is it home time yet?

[Tilly2]

That's a shame, Queenie. I thought you were happy there sorting out the cards.

[queenofmean]

I do love my job Tilly.

I think it was just the fact that we had a big order of new stock come in and nowhere to put it and it was really busy and people were just being awkward. Asking silly questions moving everything around and things.

But I'm off now for 10 days so I can relax.

[Tilly2]

Ah! So you only hated it today? I see. That's ok then. Enjoy your holiday, Queenie. Are you going somewhere or staying at home?

[queenofmean]

Bit of both Tilly.

Got loads on next week but end of the week going away for a few days.

[tonyav]

Good news then, queenie. Things are on the up.

[queenofmean]

It is indeed - also got a few cover shifts coming up too

[tonyav]

Good stuff, queenie. Treat yourself with the overtime dosh.

[queenofmean]

I'm saving it up to split between my DMP and my winter break in January :)

[tonyav]

Oooooh are you off on hols in Jan then, queenie.

[queenofmean]

I'm going to Rye for 5 days Tony - can't wait. Couldn't get in the place I wanted to stay though.

[tonyav]

Isle of man then, queenie. I'm sure you'll have a good time.
