End of day offload part 2:
1. Forgot to add the other receipt to my end of day till count because the chick was like “It’s Xmas, and I wanna go home.” So, I was like look I’d like to stay open until 3, you have the key… and so basically, I’ll try my best to meet you halfway and go early. But I was in such a rush that I made that error. The most critical task of the day (after no. 1 priority – the customer). Next time I am just going to say, “Look, I’m doing this and this is really important. I’ll try my best to get it done on time but I wanna make sure it is done right and not rushed. Although I am aiming to get it done at said time.” And to top it all off, I forgot my tips AND my something else. Jesus H. Christ.
2. I went to get smokes and the person on other end was like “ID?” Joked about age, showed ID. And then he was “Confirmation?”, “I wanna see it twice”, then he was like “You have to wait 5 minutes.” Dude, wtf? I was rightfully in the queue. He was obvs joking, but inevitably, I’ve had a long day. Why am I going to waste my time arguing with a petrol service assistant. I’ll just go to another shop. Same but minor issue with the other shop too. Facepalm. Under the rug, it’s not critical enough to bring up.
3. Classic FM is great background music. Great to study to, great to listen. You know a time and a place for it. But what might be a better choice is cafe jazz bossa nova musaac. Similarly chill, perhaps less painful to most, and a little bit more modern. Just a suggestion. And the same time if people want a quieter atmosphere they can go to the other room, and there is plenty of space downstairs. There are other coffee shops as well too but I’d rather make you one here because it’s the best place.
4. Not a fan of astrology as science is my alter (Cause and affect, no special or symbolic meaning – the world is as it is) but just on a more light hearted topic just had a great convo with two LEO customers. Leo the Lion, Leo’s are just the best cause they ARE.
5. I want my hours for next week. I don’t have hours!
6. Probably another week and I will be up to date with my training and taking solo reins (I could probably have a convo and get the orders right but forgive myself right now bc I am still training, although why don’t I have a trainer? Better question is though am I the type of individual that requires one? Probably not. I’m hardworking and bright enough to pick it up at lightning speed, give or take in a certain timeframe to smooth over). I keep getting better in confidence, comfortable-ness, and general approach. Swell.
Did I say how glad I am to be back at work? YES.
