there's a sale on our double-knit slacks today

[minkhollow]

Gainful Employment, day two: Have had enough of theft-detection tags to last me the rest of the year. Stupid stock backlog. If we got half that stuff ready to go, we were extremely lucky. It just wouldn't! stop! COMING!
Work again Friday, same time. And I'll actually be able to clock in (wow).
Internet was being very stupid this afternoon before I left, and tonight after I got back, to the point where there was stressing over finding the tech-support number (which I wound up not having to call). But I'm going to pretend that didn't happen, yeah?
Also: milliways_bar can expect Pestilence once I get a chance to log out of this account.

*boogies at pestilence*

DUDE!

*is swamped in applications*

Must be a good idea, then.
I'm almost scared to get back into that mindset (it's a very scary place to be sometimes), but I think I'll manage.

Welcome to the wonderful world of fashion, by the way. Do you get commissions?

[minkhollow]

Won't know for sure until I get a shot at using the register, I don't think. I think you get a bit of credit if someone remembers you helping them, and if people use the store's charge card when you ring it up you get a dollar or something.
Thanks, and I hope I won't feel the need to jump on the theft-detection thingies (good for stress relief, but it'd be a MESS).

Make sure you find out/ get that in writing or bet your bottom dollar you'll never see those dollars.

Our theft detector is set off by: cell phones, the heat, the cat, menstruation, God, the devil, Yoko Ono's personal assistant, and the mail man, but strangely not by our theft-prevention stickers.

Just wait until you have awful customer stories. Ooooh! And declining credit cards! Those are the best! Because it's always that nice big sale you spent over an hour on.

I've already got a customer-on-cell-phone story - that was last night. Going about business as usual, and then some girl on her phone goes, "JOSH BOUGHT MALLORY A DIAMOND RING?!"
Everyone else just went '...okay.' XD
And the theft thingies here work. I was in for interview-type stuff during a sidewalk sale. BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP every time people came inside with clothes, or someone was moving a rack around.

I was once reduced to tears by the Assistant Editor of Vogue.

That was fun.

Wait...no, it wasn't.

[minkhollow]

Oh dear.

[vikytickytembo.livejournal.com]

Yeah, guess who doesn't read Vogue anymore?

[minkhollow]

Haven't the slightest clue. < /sarcasm >

[vikytickytembo.livejournal.com]

The answer is Wayne Newton.

He thinks it's gotten too slutty.

Oh, that's everything these days...
