Inventory is finally over. From what I’ve been told it has been a much smoother process than in years past. I have no idea because this is my first time doing inventory here. I have done inventory for over 10 years in retail but this was a much different beast. The best part of it was that unlike retail we didn’t have the inventory crew coming in counting. If you work in retail you know the “crew”. These are the people that look like they are ex carnies and Mc Donald’s third shift wasn’t hiring. Luckily here our own people counted and then as accounting folk we put the numbers into the computer. Did I mention the overtime involved with this? In the past two weeks I have gotten over 25 hours of overtime which is pretty sweet. Friday I pulled a 5am to 6:15pm shift without a lunch which was pretty long for a day of work, but I will be singing the praises when I get my pay stub.
Well I’ve noticed that I haven’t blogged much this month either, although I did blog more than I did in August. I’ve been looking into reasons to blame this on and I seriously think that since I no longer work in retail that I don’t have much to say anymore. I used to be on here bitching about customers and my job like Al Bundy bitches about fat women in his shoe store. I seriously didn’t realize that Halloween was so close until I was in the store and saw all the shit for sale. I thought, damn, here it is almost October and I am just seeing Halloween stuff for the first time. Speaking of my blog, I’ve been looking into what I could do to increase my posts and I think I’m going to have to bring back the short post. I went through a bunch of my old blogs and I use to make short posts and a little more frequently so I think I will attempt to do that. I don’t know when I got the idea in my head that I needed to make my posts huge but that was kind of dumb. One more idea I’ve gotten is that since I don’t work retail anymore I haven’t had any good customer sucks stuff and I am going to do a compilation of all my greatest complaints about customers from my blog. As I was going through some of the past stuff I realized that I bitched a lot about customers almost everyday so I will compile that info and release it unto the world soon.
