Paaaaaaaaaay Daaaaaaaaaaay

I got paid today. Whoo lots of money. Alot more than I thought I would because really I haven't done that much really, just weird ickle shifts.

Anyhoo I went to town.

I'd just been dropped off and I was walking along and Lorraine goe "Hello Naomi" I totally didn't see her. I was in a world of my own. Anyhoo we stood there talking for a while and stuff.

I Brought a new pair of shoes for work which look pretty much like my old ones. But yeah I like my old ones.

I brought a new top and some trousers too. But they're boring and stuff so yeah no piccies of them. But I diiiiiiiid buy some new trainers, I could have brought two pairs because they had a buy one get one half price. Buuuuuuut I was a good girl and didn't. But I did buy soe black ones.



Erm yeah saw some strange people in town :P twice.

Went in ASDA it was like uber busy and stuff so I didn't get harrassed or anything.

Going out with Katie tonight. I'm not entirely sure what's going on. I thin she's going to come and pick me up and we're going to have some drinks round hers before we go into town.

I think.

Oh and some piccies

  • Piccies
  • Screaming Orgasms and Banana Bliss

    So yeah I made it to the train, I was early and the train was late. Blah

    Got on the train, it was packed. I found a seat next to some not so scary looking man and sat there until Warminster when I was dragged up from my seat to go find ones further up the train, but there weren't any so yeah

    We got to Salisbury, went and got some money and then went in the Kings Head. Erm had a drink. Me and Charles went and odered some food coz well I was told that I had to eat something before I left the house and I didn't and yeah. Anyhoo my chips come and Charles food didn't, so he was there eating my chips :( anyhoo he went and complained and he got his so ate some of his food

    The we went to Chicago Rock. The poor bar lady person. It was her first night and we were all asking for cocktails. Lol. But they were cheap so yeah. We went and sat down. There was this huge group of us sat there all singing along to the music, we got some pretty funny looks from other people. Especially Terry who is even more camp when he's drunk. Lol

    Terry kept dragging people off to dance. When Destiny's Child came on he was like "come onnnn" to me I was like "I'm not drunk enough" "It's Destiny's child, duh" So I had to dance.

    Erm Michelle and Kate wanted to go to some other place. I got dragged by Michelle and so I dragged Charles along too. So there was about 7 of us going with the rest staying in Chicago Rock.

    We were walking along and stopped at a kabab place coz Kate and Tom wanted food. Michelle was reaaaaaaaaaallllllllllly drunk and could barely stand so it was like "ok are we actually going to get there?" sort of thing. So yeah in the end we didn't go there we walked around for a bit, and then stood on a bridge and me Charle and Michelle did a kinda group huggy thing, and then someone goes, lets go up to the Cathedral. Ok lets go. Charles had his arm round me and I had mine round Charles, we walked like that for most of the night actually and we're walking up to the Cathedral, we were waaaaaaaaay in the front, and these two old looking security people come up to us and go "where are you going? we've just closed up" damn. turn around and walk allllll the way back to Chigago. Go and sit there with the others for abit and then we had to go to the station to get the train.

    Got to the station, the train was delayed by an hour. Soooo not amused. So we sat on the plat form for an hour. Bex and Neil went to get chips and so I got them to get me some and there were loooooads, so I ened up giving them to Terry and he gave them to some one else so yeah.

    Got on the train at like midnight, this was after thinking that every next train was ours.

    Kirsty and Bex were having an argument about why guys look at womens boobs when they talk to them. Then there was this whole debate about breast feeding and bottle feeding. Anyhoo I was like nearly asleep. You know because apparently I had a long hard day according to Charles, yeah coz five hours at work is a long time for me. anyhoo we're there leant against each other and then he put his arms around me and yeah I practically fell asleep. I think I would have if it weren't for everyone talking.

    Erm got back to Warminster, mum came to pick me up from there becuase well the train didn't go to Trowbridge and muma nd dad didn't want me to be on the train alone even if it didn't. Although when we were nearly at Warminster Michelle and Charle both said I could stay the night with them.

    Anyhoo I prolly won't see them for aggggggggggges now so yeah.

    Btw, screaming orgasm and banana bliss are cocktails

    Damn him

    So yeah in the early hours of the morning I turned my phone off coz it started beeping at me. I woke up at about 10ish picked up my phone carried it around and didn't realise it was turned off til I went to text Katie about tomorrow.

    Anyhoo I turn it on and it starts ringing. Voicemail message. "Oh crap I know who that is". And guess what I was right! "Hello Naomi, it's Pete, when you get this can you ring me at work coz I might have someover time for you............. Blah blah blah"

    Anyhoo so yeah. I rang ASDA. This was after searching for a receipt to get the store number. So yeah I get put through to reception, blah de blah de blah, "can you put me through to up stairs I need to talk to Pete Church" "Yeah ok" 5 seconds later "oh you've come back through to reception" this happened about three times before I got put through to the customer service desk, So like yeah "Hi Sue, it's Naomi, I need to talk to Pete" "Ok hun" Next thing you hear "Pete it's Naomi" In a not so quiet voice.

    So yeah he seemed very happy that I'd rung. He was all like "can you work 5-9 in kiosk" "no" "But" "no" "Plleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease" "no" "Please" "Don't coz I really really can't." "Ok, can you work earlier though?" "Erm yeah sure" "12-5" "yeah ok" "or you could do-" "I'll do 12-5" "ok then, see you in a bit."

    So yeah, there I was, I needed to get changed and go and get the bus. I walked out without my watch and my phone (my phone was dead and I couldn't find the charger) I didn't know what time it was, so I didn't know If I had missed the bus.

    Anyhoo went in. Was on like 3 different tills in about half an hour. Pete didn't seem to be able to decide what he wanted me to do. Went on more tills. Then ended up in kiosk. Nila should have been in there but she was pissed off with being messed around (which she had been this morning) and so refused to go in there. She did come to do my break though, because it was me, I think anyone else would have had to wait til someone else came in.

    So anyhoo, not my day, The paper thingy in the Lottery machine ran out and I didn't know how to change it. I droped the stapler on the floor and broke it. I droped a box of the tubey ciggie thingies and they all got squished. And I got hit on the head with a 100 pack.

    I wasn't on the going home list so no one came til like 5 past 5 when I was just about to call and ask coz I really needed to go on time. I had 45 minutes to go home get changed and be back to get a train.

    But it wasn't that bad ionce I was in kiosk, I really do actually prefer it in there so yeah.Especially when it's busy. It's easier to cope with business in the kiosk.

    Scaredness

    I'm like really quite looking forward to tomorrow night buuuuuuuut I'm quite scared about it too. I mean I know it's silly but I get like this everytime I go out with them and stuff. I really don't know why though, it's stupid I know but yeah.

    And once again be warned of a contemplative post which always happens when I meet up with that lot. But it'll include the future as well as the past I feel. That always happens too.

    Oooo and I've never been out in Salisbury beofre. I mean I barely know my way around anyways so........... Drunk and in the dark. Lol should be interesting.

    Anyhoo tis all worked out. Yam getting the train from Trowbridge at 5:50 and they shall meet me on it at Warminster at 6:06 and then we shall go to Salisbury and drink. Then go back on the last train............. which doesn't go to Trowbridge so mum is going to pick me up from Warminster, coz she's amazing.

    Anyhoo, I shall be a good girla nd update sometime during the day because I won't be here tomorrow night so yeah.

    Erm yeah babbled loads now. Jo's fault, she made me blog. Yep. Not coz I just generally babble.

    Finished

    It's done. I've sent it.

    That was fucking scary.

    Blah

    Went to work.

    Went in there was no one up there running as far as I could see. I went to the customer services desk and she was like "pete's running do you want me to call him for you?" "no" Then the phone rings and it's Pete............ for me. How weird was that? Anyhoo he told me to go and do the first break that was on the break list. But then an old lady came up to the desk and asked if someone would help her with her shopping. So I did that for like nearly an hour. Lol. Pete wasn't impressed. It was like uber busy and stuff and he kept coming up and mouthing "come on come on" to me. What? She needed alot of shopping.

    Anyhoo did that. Took Annette off for he break and then was put on another till. Ladeladela.

    Me and Becky were sat talking about breaking things coz she broke the bottle de-tagger thingy and I was like "I haven't reeeeeeeeeally broken anything since I broke this I broke this till, and that's fixed now." About half an hour later I broke the till again. I thought it had been fixed and so I tried to print a check. It hadn't been. So I broke the whole till again. Pete came over and was kinda mean to me : ( he had to take the whole thing apart this time and I just sat there doing nothing for about 20 minute while he played around with it and then the till rebooted. I am soooooooo not going on that one again.

    Erm. I stayed later than 4. Sue was running late and Pete was like "will you stay until she get's here?" Yeah sure I am really going to need the money coz I'm going to be poor next month because there is absolutely no overtime. Damn it, I mean like totally this time. Blah. Sh I like didn't leave until half 4.

    That's about it really.

    Came home am trying to do this danmed application form, I need to try anyways.

    Yep thats it.

    Yam workies

    I am going to work today. At 12. Mum went in and saw Pete for some strange reason, he said that if me and Sue had arranged it then I should come in which is funny coz every other swap has had to have been authorised and shit and they get all assy when it's not.

    So yeah workies soon. Only for 4 hours though.

    Shipping news

    Ok you can ignore this if you want. It''s kinda a highly boring rant about work and stuff.

    Oh and today I found that letter thing that Lou gave us before she went on holiday. I thought I'd lost it. But yeah I've found it, I'm not going to give it to her though.

    Anyhoo here are the questions and what I think at the mo.

    Things you think work well on the department:

    Erm to be honest at the moment nothing. Basically. No one seems to be happy at the moment in the slightest. I'm not happy. I think this is the first time I have been genuinely unhappy there since I started. Things used to work soooo well, there were enough staff everyone knew what they were doing, and who could do/ did what. Now everything is blurred, the rules are changing all the time, one minute you can do something then your being told the complete opposite. They're still great people. That's probably the best thing about the department, the people. But they're not happy and soon they're going to start disappearing one by one somewhere else where they're better treated, or paid better and stuff. It's already happening.

    Things you would like to see improved on the depatment:

    At the moment just about everything. More staff. Better hours. Consistant rules. Stuff that works. We're sinking, we need rescuing. Nothing is working. Morale needs to be lifted or people are going to be lost. We can't go on like this. I dunno.

    Things you would like to see from your manager:

    Honestly. Someone who will stick around for more than a couple of months. Well our last ones didn't did they? I mean I know it wasn't Kevins fault and he didn't want to go but yeah. I just hope Lou can cope with us. I feel soo sorry for her coming back to this mess. But hopefully she will be able to sort it out and get us back to normal. We need some consistency. someone who will look after us and our interests, we haven't got that at the moment there's no one to look after us exclusively, we are the biggest department, if anything we need the most looking after, we aren't getting it.

    I need a new job. I'm going to apply for the one at the nursery. I'm still not sure if I really want it or if I'm just applying becuase I'm unhappy at the moment, that I'm infact replacing one problem with another.

    Shopaholic

    Ok so I was going through my clothes earlier trying to find something to wear. The thing was I couldn't find anything that I wanted to, coz like all the "favourites" the stuff I wear all the time, were like all like lost, ok so they were only in the wash or dotted around the house and shit. But I did find loads of stuff that I have that I've only worn once or twice. It just isn't funny.

    Anyhoo just thought I'd comment on this, and Jo told me to blog.

    Ps. post 300.

    Fuck all

    That's what I've done with my day today. Really and actually, nothing.

    Erm did some washing this morning, watched some tv, went on the computer.

    Oh I did go down to ASDA to check to see whether I am actually working tomorrow but the rotas weren't upstairs and there was no one around that I could talk to so yeah, I dunno. I text Katie and asked her to check for me but she hasn't text me back or anything so maybe she forgot.

    Oh and Pete rang me. I saw that it was a private number and I know that that has to be one of two places work or college. I answered it and was like "Hello" no answer "hello" still no answer, I could hear voices in the background and I swear I heard Glynis so I was like oh fuck but then the was a "hello?" Damn it, male voice, Pete's voice, what does he want? "Hi" "Is that Naomi?" "Er yeah" "It's me" oh that's useful, how many other me's are there? Anyhoo he wanted to ask me to work Saturday night, I knew I was going to be asked sooner or later and I knew where I would be- kiosk. I don't mind though coz it's probably the only overtime I'm going to get coz we're so short of it, any that there is is gonna get snapped up so yeah screwage.

    But yeah people aren't happy. I was talking to Sheila and she is majourly unhappy, she's been doing loads more than she should be and stuff. She's being asked if we're closing too coz there's no stuff on the shelves apparently. I know it was manic when we went in so I dunno.

    Blah.

    I'm bored.

    Annoyed.

    Ok so the reason that there was no blog entry from me last night was because it wouldn't let me on. There were "unexpected peroblems" How crappy is that? So yeah I couldn't blog :( But I'm going to backdate for yesterday to make things an ickle better.

    Ps. Who updated the DCE crew blog?

    Sinking Ship

    Ok so I was dreading going intoo work yeaterday, I really wasn't looking forward to the prospect of spending 8 hours in kiosk. But yeah it wasn't that bad.

    Went upstairs. Walking along, said "Hi" to Pete "What you doing here?" "Erm working" blank look "wha??" "Kiosk 12-8, like we said" "Oh yeah, I forgot, I've not been having a good day." "Ok well I'm going in kiosk bye" Ahhhh poor thing. lol. But yeah it was overly busy inside the store and there weren't enough people and the morning hadn't been good either.

    I was out in the kiosk with Trudie for the first like hour before she went at 1. She kept telling me off because I kept giggling. I don't know why but I was. I even got asked by a customer if I was on something, er no. I just couldn't stop.

    Erm yeah. Jan came in. she wanted the lottery numbers since she's been away. Anyhoo Trudie goes to her "that's right abandon the sinking ship" Jan's just there like "what?" And me and Trudie wer just like "This ship. We're sinking." I think she thought we were abit odd. But anyhoo things aren't too good on the department at the mo so yeah.

    Anyhoo Stuart the GSM (Manager of ther whole store) was up and he kept coming in for fags, so he must have been running, you know it's busy when he's up and doing something.

    Anyhoo I was on my own fromm like 1. I didn't get my break until like 3:45 and I didn't get another one. But then no one is getting the right amount of breaks at the moment becuase theres' no one to cover them all. It was quite busy really until like 5:30ish when it died down alot and by 6:30ish it was dead. By seven I had nothing left to do coz I had once again put out alll the stock and bagged everything up and stuff so yeah.

    Anyhoo Pete kept coming out, I don't know why though, I thought he was getting something but he never did. He kept throwing stuff at me though. At one point we were throwing a packet of fags at each other behind the kiosk, there weren't at customers so it didn't matter so much but yeah, I hit him on the head. Erm then he went round the other side and was "tidying" He picked up all the receipts and stuff and chucked them at me, now bearing in mind I had tidied the kiosk up like completely I now he peices of paper all over the floor.

    Oh and I broke something. What a suprise. I broke a silly bit of trim thingy stuff. Well it fell off but I got the blame. I was called a vandal. Guess who by. It really wasn't my fault and I tried to put it back up but it wouldn't go.

    Helen came in and we were chatting. Pete came along ruining our conversation, damn him and then chatty chatty chatty "You should try parenthood, that's stressful" "He's my dad" "Yeah I'm her dad so I've already done that whole thing" Ok weird. But then she goes "I have to go and do all my shopping by 8" It was 7:20 or something. So yeah she left me, all alone.

    That was my main problem yesterday. I had no one to talk to except when Trudie was there and Pete came out to annoy me. So yeah.

    Oh and Simon (one of the managers) came out to get the greeters mike and he goes "Do you want to do a tannoy for me?" "Er no" "Why not? An out going person like you" wtf? Ok whatever. Considering I think we have had a total of 2 conversations, where did that come from?

    Mum came in. I knew she was coming because Pete was standing by the entrance and goes "Mummy" I knew it wasn't his mum, so yeah it was mine. Everyone calls my mum mummy or mum there. Strange people. So yeah she came over and talked to me. And then I had sweets thrown at me and stuff, Ii threw them back and they hit my mum- the wrong person, oops.

    Erm then she wanted some fags and a drink but I couldn't serve her. So guess who I had to call out? Damn it. I was having fun pretending to do something.

    Anyhoo I was finished and out before anyone else. Coz I'm amazing.

    I'm going to Salisbury on Thursday night. I'm going with Michelle and Kate and others for a drink before they go to uni on Saturday. I feel so sorry for whoever's running on Saturday because I shall be dead especially after Friday (Katie palns to get me drunk) and God help them if they put me out in kiosk.

    Anyways. I know it's late and stuff but better late than never right? Plus it's quite long.

    Sunday, September 25, 2005

    Bah

    I'm quite tired really. The thing is the thought of tomorrow doesn't make me feel any better really. I'm going to work, which, is exactly what I said I wasn't going to do, danm Pete and H. Pete's fault mainly, H brought it up but Pete knows what to say to make me do stuff, "oh we really need you " and all that shit. But really thinking about it they don't. There are other kiosk trained people who could have worked, who were already working, so why couldn't one of them just go in there? Why me? That's what it's going to be though from now on isn't it? "Naomi we need you in the kiosk, will you work such in such a time" because now Katies gone it's basically going to be me. I'm the one they're going to ask to do it. Sundays I'm going to be in there when Nina's not in Saturday nights I'm going to be there. Yes I know I'm ranting about work again, I'll stop.

    I have just over 12 hours to finish this damned application form. It's not going to happen. I can't do it. Why do I want the job? Oh because I was told I should apply for it, I don't even know if I want it tbh. Great that's going to go down well, isn't it? Fuck it I can't do it.

    I neeeeeeeeed to go shopping on friday. I need some new shoes. Mine are dead. They have no grip on the bottom so I keep slipping and at some poi8nt I'm gouing to end up on my ass and it won't be funny. I want some new trainers too. Some black ones. Yes so I must buy some. Don't know what's going to happen on friday with me and Katie but yeah we'll sort it out. I need a good drink. I just feel sorry for Anita and Kirsty on Saturday morning. Lol

    I was talking to Kate the other night and she was like "you have to come to Portsmouth and stay with me and Michelle and we'll go out drinking" Yay. Not sure if it'll happen but yeah. We were talking about the future and stuff and I was like I think I'm going to go to uni next year and do teaching, and she's like "do it. You'll be and ace ace ace ace ace teacher." How's that for a confidence boost? I love her she's so, well happy. More that me, even.

    Anyhoo that's about all I thin I have to say. Maybe

    Oh I'm working Wednesday, for Sue only 12-4 so that's cool.

    War

    Well it turns out it's not just me who's hours were changed. Several peoples have been. Annnnnnnd Anita isn't happy. I'm not sure whether hers have been changed or she's just taking a lead for the rest of us, but the basic point is it's not on. They can't do that. Which to be fair they can't.

    It's quite funny really coz I got out of working for a while coz I was stood ranting with Anita Barbara and Christa. Lol. QThen Anita had a "heated disscussion" with Nick about it. That was quite funny really coz he was basically trying to pass the buck, ok so it's not his fault but he was saying that it was becuase of spending on the department and stuff, basically complete balls.

    But yeah it's not on and as the week goes on they are going to have more and more unhappy campers. I feel really sorry for Lou coz when she comes back she is going to have to sort out the mess and cope witha department that's now in chaos.

    But yeah it's made me happier about yesterday and stuff. I don't know why.

    I can't wait till tomorrow, that should be fun.

    Pissed off

    I really am. I'm not even sure if the things I seem to be pissed off about are even worth being annoyed about or if I'm just in a bad mood.

    • Ok so I go in this morning and Kirsty's like "what are you doing in? Have you come in early? You're not supposed to be in till 12" wtf? I come in at 10 on a Saturday, I always have. But no some idiot had crossed me off the rota and put me in kiosk from 12-8 but not told me. So yeah i could have had another like 2 hours sleep, I could have done with it. But no, no one told me. I'm still not sure who it was though. My first thought was Pete, but I asked him and he said it wasn't so................ I'm now thinking maybe H.
    • I was doing breaks this morning and then I was asked by H to stick the tickled pink triangle things to the top of the check outs with blue tac. It didn't fucking work. Of course it wouldn't.
    • Went out in kiosk. I was with Helen and she was like "are we doing our own breaks out here?" I wasn't sure so when Kirsty came out for some fags we asked her and she was like "Oh yeah you are" Oh great. Helen had been waiting for someone to come and take her off so she like had to go on a break coz she had been up nearly four hours which left me on my own with an uber long queue. So yeah I got stressed out there and stuff.
    • Oh and then when Helen came back we had Pete popping up every once in a while and going "whats with the queues?". Argh I could have slapped him... Hard.
    • Anyhoo I didn't stay out in kiosk forever. Nic came and took me off and I went out on tills. Yeah that really wasn't much better.
    • Went on my break and me Katie and Becky sat there having a moan about stuff. Becky went and Pete came down. Oh turns out he's leaving early. Wtf? How is that fair? I mean on one list I was down to go home at seven on one six and I still couldn't go home. It is so annoying.Oh and then to top it all off he pulled my hair out of the ponytail. Realllllllllly not in the mood Pete, don't do it.
    • I'm working on Monday 12-8 in the kiosk. Pete asked me in the morning when I was still in a relatively good mood. Good job really becuase if he had asked me later then I would have basically told him to fuck off. Buuuut not just that there's noway that I'm going to get anymore overtime for next week coz they have to get rid of 200 hours, buuuuuuut they don't have enough people. Wtf? They are sooo fucked.
    • Oh and then I got put on a till with a broken chip and pin machine. Sooooooo I had to type in all the numbers. Not happy. Most people I served paid by card sooo not happy.
    • Oh and No Nomee and Caty day tomorrow. Katies in kiosk. No one told her. Plus she has to be in at 9:30 and she wouldn't have been in till 10 if we hadn't of checked, so would've got in trouble, because someone is messing around with the rotas.

    Yep that's about it reall. A chinese and Half a bottle of wine later and I do feel abit better. But still.................... Not amazingly happy.

    Friday, September 23, 2005

    Lol

    Ok so yeah I'm like finally kinda doing the application form. I'm doing the online one coz like then they don't get my crappy hand writting anyhoo.

    "Please give details of any hobbies or personal activities you pursue"

    Errrrrrrrrrrr. I hate this question, in fact I hat all of them but yeah this question is just stupid.

    The thing is I can't think of anything that I could actually put becuase it doesn't sound great it you put stuff like.

    Umm sit on my ass in front of the computer.
    Get drunk.
    Shop.
    Go to the cinema.

    Of course you can't put any of that coz well you just sound bad.

    Can anyone help me fond some hobbies I can have? Something realistic and not silly that's interesting and stuff.

    I really give up with this.

    Amazingness

    So yeah I slept in this morning. When I got up I found out that mum and dad had been to town and stuff and gone into ASDA and told everyone that I was still in bed at like 10. So according to Judith I'm a lazy cow.

    Spent the day doing nothing much really.

    Went to work at 6 and really didn't want to coz well it was late and stuff and I was tired.

    Anyhoo got put on a big till coz it was busy and then Racheal comes up to me and goes "are you ok to cover kiosk from 8 til 10?" "yeah fine" err like I really had a choice. I mean there was no one else who was kiosk trained in sooo it was going to be me wasn't it? Plus me and Hannah had already talked about it and how I was going to end up in there so yeah. It's going to be me or Katie in there tomorrow night. I have a feeling it'll be Katie unless Pete decides to be an ass and put me out there.

    But yeah it turned out Helen actually went home at 7 and not 8 and so Racheal had to shut me down and I had a huge queue.

    Anyhoo, Helen had already like bagged up a till so I didn't have to do that so that was less work for me to do. All I had to do was bag up the other two. But because of my amazingness I had like bagged up all the coins and stuff before like 8 so I had basically nothing to do for 2 hours.

    Buuuuuuuuut also becuase of my amazingness I have totally stocked up the kiosk. If anyone complains that theres nothing out tomorrow I shall kill then because I put out evvvvvvvvverything that could go out coz I'm just like amazing. Annnnnnnnnnnnd I tidied up. (can you tell I was bored?)

    Pauline kept coming out to see me tooo so I had like someone to talk to and wasn't there all on my own.

    Oh and I can't get Kat's song out of my head. It's soooooo annoying. Plus she's told Becky it. Sooooooo not funny.

    Once again I have bebbled waaaaaaaaay too much about wokr and stuff.

    Immaturity

    Work was ok today actually. Mainly because I was doing different things, but then I think that was just coz Pete was picking on me and stuff but yeah, I found it better that way.

    Erm yeah so I went in and it was uber busy. Kirsty was there and was like "can you jump on an express till?" Er yeah whatever. I got on there and there was like noooo change in it. Damn it. But the Pete came along and poked me, made a face at me and opened the till and got me some change. He wasn't haveing a good day again but poking me seemed to help.

    Yeah so I was there for a while and he walks past and goes "can you jump off of there?" So I got off the till and walked after him and then he goes "it's ok you can go back now" Argh what was the point of that? Then abit later "can you collect some baskets?" so I did coz that means that you can go and talk to people. Then back ona till.

    I trapped my finger in a drawer on the till too. It bloody hurt. Becky found it really funny and decided to tell Kirsty and Barbara.

    Oh and Kirsty was being like overly nice and sweet. I don't trust it. We were talking about "talk like a pirate day" apparently I am the onnnnlllllllly person who could know that and I'm like "no I'm not"But yeah she wouldn't believe me.

    Then Pete was like "Can you go do Nina's break?" I went out there and I needed a wee and Nina was like "you go and then do my break" I was like thank yoooooooou coz I wouldn't have got a break and stuff so yeah. So I went back to the kiosk and Nina went for her break. I t was really quite quiet in there. 10 Minutes after Nina had gone the phone rang. "Yeah I'm in Monday and Tuesday..." "Hellllllo" "Why are you still out there?" "Er coz Nina's not back yet, duh" "Why not" "I dunno, why do you miss me?" "No there's queues" "I don't see any" ok so I couldnt see anything in the store but yeah, Then he started pressing the numbers on his phone making stupid noises "Er yeah I've got customers bye" and I hung up. Moments later. There was banging on the door in kiosk. It was Pete, why I don't know but yeah.

    Nina came back and I stayed out there for a bit so that she could bag up ad stuff. But the Pete came out and dragged me back out. I wnet and got some eggs for Racheal and hid from Pete talking to Racheal and Sue so that I didn't have to do any work, but it didn't work. I was put on a till for like five minutes, then Leona came back.

    I did the basket again. Did some put backs and then took Michelle off.

    At about half nine Sue got a call. I'm geussing it was Pete, he was up the top till training Leanda. Anyhoo Sue asked me if I wanted to go home early and I was like yeah. Whoo. Me and her got to go home early.

    Yeah so Kat. I wore my hair down today. I actually bothered to straighten my hair, erm so yeah she was like it's really nice and stuff and then she called me Omie and was like I'm gonna call you that from now on. Then Sheila came along and called me Nomie. So yeah Kat decided to call me Omie Nomie. I went back abit later and she had started to make up a song. Then when I finished she had finished. She wouldn't read it around other people though coz well it's just not good.

    It was something like:

    Omie Nomie, you are a lovely poo
    Pete is crazy, cray in love with you
    Something something bonked you, and now there is a baby
    Your hair is no longer wavy
    and you and pete will look sweet
    with a baby called kangaroo.

    Just like omg! I mean seriously, just no. Annnnnnnnnd she told loo roll guy that I was pregnant. Sooooooo not funny.

    Ok so went back in a brought a Wiltshire Times and stuff. Was told that I had to go to the till that Leanda was on beacause pete told me to and there were "no buts" Mum had come in by then, she had to anyways because Pete wanted to see her hair, he was complaining about how it was falt and gray yesterday : / and It wasn't so flat and gray today because I had done it.

    But yea I have babbled waaaaay to much about work. I'm not in till 6 tomorrow so I have allllllllll day to do stuff. I have nothing to do but yeah.

    Argh

    This morning I dyed my mums hair. Except there was a hole in one of the gloves sooooooooo I have this weird brownish patch on myhand which kinda looks like a bruise. Argh. It won't come off. I've tried evvvvvvvvverything but it's still there. Damnit.

    Workies sooon. Annnnnnnnnnd Imay have gone like a whole Thursday without them calling and asking me to go in earlier. Whooooooo. But I am doing a crappy shift though, coz I don't get a break. Blah.

    Hum dee hum hum.

    Wednesday, September 21, 2005

    Erm.......

    So yeah this morning I went shopping with Mum in ASDA.

    People were picking on as usual and stuff.

    I finally showed Pete the pictures from that night, He laughed and showed Denise, er no don't do that, I look reaallllllllllllly bad. Then we were stood there talking for a bit. Me and mum walked off and carried on shopping then a while later we ended up talking to him again for ages. He must have been loney. He was saying how he couldn't wait for the Christmas party whihc isn't actually that far away. I'm gonna go this year I think, hopefully there'll be a drink in it.

    Ooo and I brought Robots. Whoo. I haven't watched it yet because of work and stuff but yeah.

    Erm went home and watched tv for a bit then went back to work.

    Was on express like all day. I got sooo bored I've been on express for most of the last three days. Theres only so much you can take of that. Blah.

    Erm yeah some messing around and stuff. Pete kept poking me :( that's not allowed. Only I'm allowed to poke people. Annnnnnnnd it hurt. He was really stressed out though, he was having a rant to me and saying about how people kept bitching to him and this customer came up and didn't look very impressed with him. Oh well it's her problem.

    Ollie came in and he let my chair down as usual. It's soo not funny

    Erm yeah so, I'm wondering whether people can count/read. I mean all of the express checkouts now have a proper "10 items" sign up and people are still coming with trolleys and stuff and asking if it's ok. Er no. Erm I think there may be slightly more than 10 items in that huge trolley full. Idiots.

    Erm apart from that nothing.

    I really need a kick up the ass. I been trying to fill out the stupid application form since Saturday and I've got as far as my name and stuff. How fucking stupid is that? Is it becuase I don't really want the job or becuase I just can't be bothered? Or just because I have no one to tell me to do it som I'm not? I don't think I'm making sense now. Blah.

    It's like I started registering with UCAS but I got bored after the first page or so. I mean why can't I do it?

    I don't know about that anymore. I mean I was thinking about going to Bath becuase then I could stay at home and it would be cheaper for me but then why not go away? Katie said I should go to Cardiff with her, Lora said I should go where she is (there are 18 pubs!!!!!!!!!) Although I can't actually remember where she is : / (sorry) But yeah. I don't know anymore.

    Tuesday, September 20, 2005

    Blah

    Today was sooo pointless. I mean I was just ,messing around half the time that I was there. They complain that they've overspent on wages but they wouldn't let me go home.

    H called me trouble today. I mean she's been there wht? Two days and she's already calling me trouble. I quite like her though, she's actually quite nice really. But she wouldn't trust me with her cats let alone children, but the neither would Sue, or Anita, or Kirsty ok the list goes on. Soo not fair.

    I'm working till 8 on Saturday, suprises. It was Sue this time though.

    Oh and I'm not allowed to work next Friday, Katie told me. I wasn't going to anyways because it's payday and I want to go shopping for like clothes and stuff, and we're supposed to be going out so yeah. But :( she's leaving me.

    But yeah that's about it. I really need to take my camera into work and shoe Pete the pictures, but then he's been away and shit so yeah.

    Oh and I watched Rugrats Go Wild today, how grown up.

    Monday, September 19, 2005

    I said no

    Work was so workish today. (shhh I know what I mean........ kinda)

    Anyhoo. I was there for half an hour before I managed to break the till. I mean like completely fuck it up. Reaaaallllllly it was Kirstys fault- if she hadn't wanted to pay by cheque then I wouldn't have had to use the cheque prity machine thing and then it wouldn't have broken, anyhoo. Yeah we had to call Pete over who then did exactly what we had been doing for like five minutes, really not helpful. Then he was like "I'm going to have to shut it down and re boot the system" Er ok, whatever. So yeah that took forevvvvvvvvver, and then I had to do all of kirstys shopping again, ok so it was like only a few things but still.

    Nut yeah Pete's back from his holiday, no idea where he went or anything just that he maxed out his credit card and had to borrow money off his mum. Pluuuuuus he called me a skiver. Wtf? I haven't had the last week off :P But yeah I greeted him with a slap for telling Brian about the whole shoe/sick thing and he put my chair down. Normalness.

    We have a customer service manager in from Frome. Her name it some funny Welsh one which I can't remember but she goes by "H". Now when I think of H I think of the guy from Steps and I just laugh so It's not really working that well.

    Now to start with I think she took me a little too seriously. Like when I went upstairs Me, Caroline and Annette were talking about something and Caroline goes "what's wrong with me?" and Annette was like "Nothing" But me being me go "Where do I start?" H seemed to think that I was being serious and stuff, but yeah Caroline found it quite funny.

    But I think that she got it eventually becuase she accused me of doing no work- jokingly. I was there trying to get support for the fact that I do work and no one would help me. Jane was like "oh she doen't know what it is." But then she's been off in the cash office and stuff so :P and Angela goes "Oh but she is one of our stars this month" H was like yeah I saw. Then Jane goes "I wonder how much she bribed that poor customer" "It wasn't a customer, it was Pete." "He fancies you." "Er no, just no" "I wonder how much your mum paid him to do it then." Sooooooo not funny.

    Oh and I got asked to stay on by Pete till 8. I said no and he was there begging abd stuff. and I was like no. And then he made me feel guilty saying that he was short staffed and that Becky needed to go home and stuff and she couldn't unless I stayed and stuff and I was just there feeling worse and worse. Buuuuuut I didn't do it. I was going to stay on and do Nina's break in the kiosk but then he sent Sam out to take me off so I went home on time, for once. But then he did say that he would get me contracted till eight on a Saturday because I said that I should stop doing them. Er no, I'm gonna carry on doing them anyways aren't I? I now how screwed they are and how much they need someone (i.e. me)

    Anyhoo since I came home I have cook stir fry and watched Coyote Ugly. Wow how productive.

    Sunday, September 18, 2005

    Everythings changing

    So yeah today I was like shoved from pillar to post. I mean I did nearly everything I could do.

    I was on checkouts to start with and then Paul comes along and goes "can you go and face up the tea and coffee?" Well no actually, but seeing as you're a manager and stuff....... So I went and did that and then I was called back to checkouts. Anita was not impressed when she found out she he had sent me off and it was quite busy.

    So yeah I was on checkouts for a bit and then I went on lunch, Aaron was being an ass. There was no food that I liked apart from the jacket potato, now I haven;t had one of those for ages but he seems to think that that's all I eat. But anyways he was there and he gave me a potato in like a sea of beans, there were like loads. Ass. Me and Michelle were there moaning about stuff, well just about everything.

    Went back was on a till for like five minutes before Anita came along and goes "do you wanna go on the shop floor?" Now I would have said no if It wasn't for Katie sitting there and nodding her head at me- she was going too.

    So yeah I went with Katie and put out some of the Christmas stock, the selection boxes and stuff and I think we annoyed Steph becuase we were talking and not doing all that much work really. But I don't care. Then Simon comes along and asked me and Katie to go and face up on chilled. Where it was cold.

    Anyhoo we did that and went back to checkouts. Where Anita put me on the door, greeting to cover Kay's break. I was doing that and Paul came along again and goes "are you kiosk trained?" "yeah" "can you go in and help with the queue?" So off I troted. I was in with Nina until Anita came and got me. Buuuuuuuut she didn't need me on checkouts, she got me to face up all the gravey and stuff. Blah, it all kept falling down on me.

    Then when I had finished I was just kind of standing around doing nothing until Hannah sent me off to take Sue off because she goes home at four. Blah. Oh then she was like "how are they?" and pats my stomach.... I know she was messing around though so that's ok.

    Anyhoo it was Mel's last day today. No one knew until I told Anita. I don't thin she's very happy becuase I was like "It's Mel's last day, oh and it could be Katie's last Sunday........ and I could be leaving in the vague future." But it's ok because I won't get the job and Katie's doing next Sunday, so that's all good.

    Me and Katie are going to go drinking. On pay day. I think it's kind of like her "I'm kind of leaving so let's go have a drink" sort of thing. But yeah that should be cool. I'm doing thursday for her, something about an appointment but it's only 5:15- 9 so that's ok, ickle shift.

    Oh and I'm the loudest person Lydia knows. Yep I'm never quiet and the only time it's quiet is when I'm not there. : P I can be quiet. I was quiet when I started. I tried to get Lesley to back me up with that but she wouldn't. Mean. I think Lydia was feeling really down today. We were in the locker room and she was like "wait for me" so I did and when everyone else had gone she was like "can I have a hug, I've had a really crap weekend" Ahhh, she's so ickle, she's like the baby, I don't know what's happened and stuff but yeah.

    Oh the stalker boy is back. When I was up doing the tea and coffee he came up to me and goe "when will you find out about the nominations?" "erm I dunno" knowing full well that they had already been out for this month and that there prolly won't be one next month coz Jan doen't come back till it's too late. Then he goes "Do you think they'll have noticed that I nominated you five times?" "I dunno" Omg yes. Jan's not an idiot. Thise are prolly someof the ones that she chucked out coz you did them for loads of people. "Oh ok then, But I did five for you" Ok you're a weirdo, please go away. But he also stalks Katie and Steve too. Weirdo.

    Ok I have rambled enough for today I think.

    Saturday, September 17, 2005

    Spiders lair?

    Where do they keep coming from? There was another one on the wall by the computer. It's kinda small compared to some of the others that we've had around lately. I took a picture, because well, I'm sad like that. Anyhoo, now I've lost him or her, or it.




    Mini me

    Work was poopy today. It went on forevvvvveeeeeeeeeeer. Ok so it was forever but still. I was soo bored. I was there and I was doing breaks and stuff. I don't know how I ended up doing them but I did.

    Lynn came in and was like "did you get a phone call from Glynis this morning?" Er yeah, what about it? Does it really matter who's rung me? Then she was all like "the children need you" and shit. What ever.

    Oh and not liking Kat. She decuded mid afternoon that she was bored and was going to make up stuff. So yeah I was there and was like "Naomi and Pete went on a date" fine whatever, but no that wasn't good enough for her "They're engaged and Naomi's pregnant.................. with twins" wtf? "But Pete's Naomi's brother" Okkkk that's just wrong. "And he's having an affair with her mum..... and her mums pregnant" Omg. Then she told Sue and told her to spread it around. Omg. What is he going to think when he comes back? I mean with the shit that's going around.

    Erm Hannah stuffed me on till three at like six. The card thingy was playing up and there was no one else up that end so I was abit scewed. Erm It was quiet and then got really busy. I had the last customer and he was one of theose people who will piss around and stuff so they take twice as long as normal people. Not happy about that.

    And now I'm here writting this.

    Katie got the job at Virgin so she's like leaving kinda, well she's going seasonal so she'll still be there kinda. This was Mel's last weekend. She's got a job at Just Learning. She said she might go seasonal and stuff but then she's supposed to be going to uni in January to do nursing. I am still there.

    I haven't talked to Jo in agggggggges (well since like Wednesday but that's like ages for us). Where are you? I miss talking to you :(

    Friday, September 16, 2005

    Quietness

    Erm went to nans this morning. I haven't seen her properly in agggggggggges. She was all like 2hello stranger"

    Went to ASDA in Frome. Mainly I just wanted to see if they were making prats out of themselves today. They weren't damn them. But I did but some tickled pink socks which were dudey.

    Erm went to work. It was heaving in there. I mean blah. I kept getting moved around though. Then i went like majourly quiet at like 9 and I don't think I served anyone from like 9:15. It was soo pointless being there, Me and Leona were just sat there talking and stuff.

    Pauline was being silly. She's the security collegue and she was messing around and not setting a very good example to me, being young and impressionable and stuff.

    So yeah I have like 10 hours to look forward to tomorrow. They are going to be soo screwed on a Saturday night coz like Mel's leaving and stuff coz she got a job at Just Learning so yeah she quitting quitting. Which leaves like 3 people contracted to stay ona Saturday night. Screwage.

    I really need to talk to someone, but the people I would talk to aren't here, well not on MSN anyways.

    Blah.

    Owwwwwwwww

    My foot still hurts.

    Owwwwww

    I should do it but I'll put it off coz I'm scared.

    Damn it

    I saw a job in the Wiltshire Times last night. It was for the Little Accorns at college. I was like no I don't want it.

    This morning I got a phone call, I was thinking it was work asking if I would go in even earlier. Erm no thanks, I'm already working 6 hours when I'm supposed to be having a day off. But no it was Glynis.

    "Are you still looking for a job in a nursery?"
    "Er yeah"
    "Theres a job at the college nursery."
    "I know."
    "Have you applied for it yet?"
    "No"
    "Well you should, put me or Lynn down as refferees."
    "Er ok"

    So yeah I'm going to have to do it now because if I don't they're gonna know. Blah. I wasn't going to apply for it. I said no basically as soon as my mum showed me. But then It's only 7 hours per week in term time soooooo I could in theory go seasonal and shit at ASDA. If I apply and if I get it.

    I'm scared.

    Thursday, September 15, 2005

    ow

    I fell over. Well I slipped. I was walking towards the stairs that go from the bottom car park to the top one and I slipped. My shoe came off and I banged my knee.

    Now my toes hurt and my knee hurts. : (

    Nothing much happened at wokr today. We were really busy and shit, blah.

    Oh and I'm working tomorrow too. Caroline asked me. I said that I wasn't going to if they asked me buuuuut when they did there was only Kat staying till 10 so they were abit screwed. I'm doing 4-10. Blah I don'y care.

    Oh and even though this month I could never get any hours wellI worked it out and come next Thursday I will have had a grand total of 6 days off this month. Wtf? Buuut that's if I don't get a call from someone next Thursday, which I have done for the past two weeks.

    Rude awakening

    I was woken up this morning at 7 when someone rung the door bell. It was the guy delivering the fridge. Who delivers stuff at 7 in the morning? Fucking idiot.

    I'm going into work at 3 today. Kirsty rang me an asked if I wanted to go in earlier. I was like ok, she asked me what time and I was like 3. Which means that I get a half hour break, whihc is good. It was quite busy in there earlier.

    Wednesday, September 14, 2005

    Sleeeeeeeeepy

    I am sooo tired it's not right. I don't understand. I mean I've slept more in the last two days that I probably have in the last month or so. Bah. I'm going to go to bed in a minute I think, maybe.

    Went to work. It was ok kinda boring. I ened up stuck up on till three. It wasn't that bad really.

    Some guy asked me if I was feeling better after the other Sunday. Apparently I served him. He said it was quite funny especially since the girl next to me (Katie) found it very amusing. Really? Well I didn't.

    Lydia was being silly again. Going on about me and Pete and shit. Blah fine.

    I'm working tomorrow now. 4:30- 9. Anita asked me to. I was like ok sure, fine. I really don't care. It's not like I would be going in on a badly needed day off. And it gives me something to do I suppose.

    Blah apart from that I have done nothing all day.

    Tuesday, September 13, 2005

    Today

    Erm today I haven't really done alot actually.

    I was woken up at about 10ish by mum asking if I wanted to go into town with her and dad. Er ok. So I went on a little trip with Mummy and Daddy which to be fair is just odd really.

    Erm went into town looked at trainers and stuff. I want some black ones and/or some white ones. I would have brought some if my dad hadn't have been there, because well he always makes me feel guilty about buying stuff, he gives me a kinda "you shouldn't really be buying that" look. But oh well I buy some soon. Maybe not till payday though which really is only 2 weeks away so thats ok.

    Oh but I did buy some trousers though so :P to him.

    Erm came home. I tidied my room and watched tv. Which is just fucking odd. I haven't really watched tv for ages, ok so I wasn't like really watching watching it but yeah.

    I helped mum cook tea. I got to chop stuf. Whoo.

    Erm, that's probably about it really. I think.

    Things are bcak to semi normalityu tomorrow coz I've got work again. Whoo. But it's only 3-8 so that cool. Then I have two more days off. Weirdness.

    Hamster

    Not a drunken fool says:
    i want a hamster

    Trapped Inside The Cage Of My Soul. says:
    buy one then

    Not a drunken fool says:
    no i cant

    Trapped Inside The Cage Of My Soul. says:

    Not a drunken fool says:
    because i have nowhere to put it

    Not a drunken fool says:

    Trapped Inside The Cage Of My Soul. says:

    Trapped Inside The Cage Of My Soul. says:

    Trapped Inside The Cage Of My Soul. says:
    pet hamster


    Lol. That had to have been the funniest thing thats happened tpday. I knoooooooow you put them in a cage Jo I may be silly but I'm not that silly. Well most of the time.

    I do want a hamster though. Or a fish. Lol.

    Tomorrow

    What shall I do tomorrow? I don't know. I mean unless I get called in and asked to work I have nothing to do. But then I could always do what I did yesterday and stay in bed half the day and watch a film or something. I dunno. But then I can hardly decide what to do today let alone tomorrow. But then saying that tomorrow is already here.

    What am I doing? Where am I going? I don't know and that's the problem. I don't know.

    I'm lost.

    I'm just kind of floating at the moment. I'm not going anywhere not moveing on. You can't go back, I know that much. Sometime I wish I could, even if it was just a few months. At leats then I had some idea what was going on in my life. I had something certain. Now nothing is.

    I'm didfferent now to what I was then. I've lost something.

    I'm babbling and have no idea what I'm talking about.

    I just let the dog out in the garden. There aren't many stars out tonight. Not that I can see anyways. I used to love just looking at the stars and stuff. I haven;t done that in ages. I've been too busy, too tired, too blah.

    Yes I'm going to shut up now.

    Monday, September 12, 2005

    Not again

    So yeah I was in ASDA earlier, we were stood up by the deli and Brian walked up to me and goes "I hear you were sick over Mr Church's shoes" and walk's off again.

    First of all I was like wtf? Who's mr Church? Moreover when was I sick on his shoes?

    And then it dawned on me. Pete is Mr Church. I was sick on his shoes. I'm a complete idiot. Yes?

    But what's bugging me now is- who told him. I don't know. I'm thinking Pete may have had something to do with it, I mean he told everyone last Monday morning so.......... Plus he told Brian that we were going out drinking in the first place so he should be on his guard, you know just in case we decided to pop in again.

    So not amused.

    I am soo never going to live it down.

    Ever.

    Sugar Rush

    I stayed in bed till like 12 today. How amazing is that? I mean I haven't done that for like months. I haven't been able to, there's always been something to do, or somewhere to go or something but yeah.

    I went down stairs and there was a package on the chair. Sugar Rush. Yes. I ordered it the other day. So I've spent most of the day watching that. I loooove it. I think my dad's under the impression that it's some sort of lesbian porn or something. Lol, He was in a stress because I didn't tell him I was odering it and stuff and so I was in abt of a stress too and he was like "what's it about?" "It's about lesbians" Ooops. Oh well he'll get over it.

    Ummm went into town. Brought three tops. Erm yeah, wasn't going to spend any money but mum was kinda in a "just buy it" mood so yeah I spent £30 in New Look.



    Oh and now I'm paying rent. We sat down and were discussing it and I was like I'll pay for this and this and that and stuff and they were like no £25 a week. Plus I still have to pay my half of the phone bill still. Blah, Plus I'm sure theres other stuff that I'll end up paying for and stuff so blah.

    Oh and my parents are being gay. Apparently I can't marry Pete coz my name won't sound right. wtf? Where has that come from? Why are they even thinking that? Omg. I know they're joking around but still, just no.

    I went all day without being rung up by work. Whoo. And I went in. Was that an achievement or what? I hope I can do the same tomorrow.

    Oh and looking I'm not as far behind Jo as I thought. This is post 272. Now I just have to do 28 more to have the same amount. So never going to happen.

    Sunday, September 11, 2005

    Will it never end?

    So yeah today I was at work (obviously) and I kept getting asked if I was ok, or if I was planning to stay all day this week. Then I got the re-telling of the story. I mean I think everyone pretty much knows about what happened last week and all that jazz. I mean with me, my mum and Pete telling people first off and then people talking about it amoung themselves. It's probably around the store. One customer told me that it'd be ok and that they'd all be talking about something else soon, but yeah I'm not taking that as comfort because it'll probably end up being about me so yeah that's gonna help. I'm the drunken shining star. Oh and you can still see a patch where I was sick up Canal Road : /

    It'll die down soon. Maybe.

    Meaningless

    Double P.S... We love you (Aww thank you, I'd say I love you but you're a complete stranger and all that jazz)...but not in a gross way (Erm..............). I'm sorry your life is so meanless, (So am I, so am I), but put some meaning in it with our group! (Erm no that's ok thanks, I think I'll pass.)

    Threesome

    So today not alot happened of any importance.

    Went in this morning and I was showing Katie the pictures from last week down stairs. And Lydia came along saw one of me.
    Lydia- "you look totally wasted"
    me- "it wasn't my fault"
    Lydia- "whose was it then?"
    Katie- "Petes"
    (thank you Katie, you really shouldn't have said that to her)
    Lydia- "So did you two go on a date then?"
    Me- "Er no"
    Lydia- "You so did. I knew it."
    Me- "No Maria was there too" (shows picture of Maria)
    Lydia- "Ooo a threesome. I didn't know you were into that sort of stuff"
    Me- "Erm what?"
    Lydia- "Awww your so in love"
    Me- "Err no"

    Then when we were upstairs Kat goes to her "Are you with that guy yet?" but Lydia thought she was talking to me and was like "yeah they went on a date" Just no. Kat was like "What?" and so Lydia told her me and Pete had been on a date. Kat believed her. Sooooo not amused. And no I didn't tell Lydia that Pete was buying me drinks, That would just be bad.

    So yeah Anita put Katie in the kiosk which meant that we were separated all day : ( which is just mean seeing as she could be leaving soon. I was sat with new girl Mandy. She is odd. I mean, I know most of us are around there but she's odder. Kinda.

    Erm Yeah it was like busy but quiet. A kinda oddish day. Weird. Oh and there was a pigeon flying around the store. It was quite scary.

    I have tomorrow off. The paln is to stay in bed for most of it and watch dvd's and stuff. I'm not going to go in if they ring me. I doubt they will. Well they probably will and if they do I'll say yes coz I'm stupid and stuff but yeah. I should take some time off really. I mean I haven't had two day's off in a row since like July, So I think I need it really.

    Not amused

    So yeah I am so tired right now. I just haven't really had enough sleep over the last week. But anyways I can't be bothered to write a proper entry so heres some bullet points instead.

    • I only had two breaks today. Sooooo not amused. I mean every other time I've done 10-8 I've hed three. But whoever did the break list last night decided that I only diserved two. Not fair.
    • I was in kiosk. From like 1:30 when I came back from lunch. I had to shut down and stuff and it was lottery night (plus I wrote the wrong till number on the bag at the end of the night)
    • I was with Nichole in kisok til like 5:30 which was cool. We were just there chatting which we haven't really done before. I had some woman ask if I was feeling ok now after sunday (omg) and so I had to go through the whole story. And then she got Amanda like thoughts in her head. Not amused by that.
    • I went and watched the carnival. Oooo funness. Sue was waiting for her daughter who was on a float and she was there with us dressed in her uniform and dancing and shouting to the people on the floats and stuff. It was quite funny though. Annnd I fell off the wall where I was sat. And I hit my head, and Sue and my mum were laughing :( not nice.
    • That's about it really. I'm going to go to bed coz I am like dead on my feet. But I thought I'd blog first.

    Night.

    I wanna

    I wanna buy someing really random. I don't know what but I want to. I mean. It's me I've got money and so I can spend money.

    But what can I buy?

    Workies

    Work wasn't too bad. I was abit blah and stuff in parts but yeah it was ok.

    It was Lizzies last day today. She's off to uni. At the end of my shift she was like "oh don't go, stay on abit more, do another break" "oh I dunno....." "Pleeeeeeeeease it's my last day" "ok then" So i did what I thought was supposed to be a fifteen munute break but the person didn't come back for like 25 minutes. When she came back I was like "I am going this time" Lizzie was like "yes you can. Bye scary lady" *hugs* So yeah

    Lorraines going on holiday for two weeks and she was like "who are you going to get to be mean to you?" I'm sure I can find someone. *looks around* Oo there's someone and another somone. I mean everyone is pretty much mean to me. Lorraine said that she was suprised that I hadn't developed a complex, becuase whenever I walk into somewhere they all go "oh no" It's a good job I know that they're joking around.

    Louisa has sent us all these letter things to like introduce herself and stuff. It's like "hi all, I'm Lou." Then it goes on about something (I didn't read that bit) and then its got three questions with bullet points. Erm but I lost mine so......... I dunno I think I left it on a checkout. But yeah I'm no good at that sort of thing so blah.

    I'm quite worried because Amanda hasn't been in all week. Well not that I've seen. I wanna know where she's gone. I don't trust it. On the plus side she'#s missed the whole drunken me stuff so that's good. Because I just know what she would have made of that story.

    I have like this funny rash thing on my neck and shoulder. It doesn't hurt or anything and I don't I would have noticed it if mum hadn't of said about it but there you go. It's annoying me now.

    Workies in 12 hours. Funness.

    Tired

    I am sooooooooo tired. Seriously I mean I need sleep. Lots of sleep. But I've got wokr at 10 tomorrow. Blah.

    Wooorking

    Work was ok.

    I went down on the bus I was down there early. I had to get changed and buy some water and stuff so yeah. I went in to buy the water and I got cornered by Caroline to give some money for the collecting for Lizzie and to sign the card.

    Got changed. Was about to go up when I hear some one call my name. Twas Pete. He then poked me. : ( People keep poking me. Soooooo not funny. Only I'm allowed to poke people. Oh and he wants to see the pictures from Saturday. Lol

    Went up. Got overtime. Katie comes up to me and whispers "I might be leaving" I was like omg, and Caroline was like "whats going on?" We told her and she was like "Oh I thought she might be pregnant and that's why you were whispering. I was getting all excited" Lol.

    Stood around for ages. Mum and Dad came in and Mum was like "do some work you" Then I offered to do and assisted shop with them but Caroline wouldn't let me : (

    Went on a till. Had a break. Went back on a till. Anita shut me down and I went on another break, even though I was only supposed to have one, but Caroline let me have two coz I went in earlier. Came back and went in kiosk. Came out of kiosk. Went on a different till. Messed around for the last hour and a half.

    Anita was going along and tidying up all the tills and taking all the loose bags off them. And then giving them to me. Thanks. At one point I had a mountain of them. So not funny. Peoples shopping kept getting lost. And I was like chatting to people.

    And I got caught up in yet another "the younger ones are unreliable" discussion. I mean they always seem to have them when I'm around. And it's always "the younger ones are less reliable that the older ones, and more likely to phone in sick or not turn up etc...." And then they trun to me and go 2well not all of them, there are a select few who are" Yeah. But then there are only a few younger ones left really. But then tbf that's becuase they've quit or just stopped turning up. But yeah always when I'm around.

    I should go to bed really. I mean I have to get up like uber early to go to work. Blah.

    At the moment....

    So I have my overtime for the next two weeks. This is what I'm doing at the moment:

    • Friday (9th): 8-3
    • Saturday: til 8 (obviously)
    • Wednesday (14th): 3-8
    • Saturday (17th): til 8 (again)
    • Monday (19th): 10-5
    • Tuesday (20th): 12-5
    • Wednesday (21st): 2-8
    • Friday (23rd): 6-10

    Really that's not too bad. I mean I have most of next week off. At the moment. But then you know what'll happen. They'll ring and I'll work. I'd be ver suprised if it doesn't.
