The Ohio Random Thread... aka We Should Probably Be Working

[03zoomzoom]

I'm soooo thankful I have a 8am-4:30pm Mon-Fri job that doesn't really flucuate too much through the year. My hat's off to all the retail sales people. You ALL deserve cookies indeed.

i work at a grocery store...i hate the holidays...but my work treats us good...we had free lunch all week and yesterday i hooked up my cashiers with free muffins and coffee for breakfast

i've been manning the customer service desk all week...it has been hell...phones have been nuts
i'm back at it again today...hopefully i don't get crazy complaints

Dealerships are crazy especially around the holidays. That's why I got the xbox and COD MW2 to take out my frustrations after a long day. I still consider myself sorta in the "retail market" even though I work m-f and every other saturday.

Nate do you get hazard pay? People are f'in crazy, running over people to grab stuff, insane....

i wish, We had some crazy people in this morning. the checkout line was an hour and ahalf wait when i got in at 3 (Old Navy didn't do any door buster sales, it's the same sale all day) People were trying to use expired coupons and two ladys that were shopping together got $400 worth of stuff, decided they didn't want to pay that and were made we wouldn't discount anymore. They spent the next 40 minutes at the registar deciding what to keep and get rid of to make there total just over $100

which one do you work at? the one on 161/sawmill by my work was open yesterday and we felt bad for them because they were open until 8pm (we closed at 4)...i think one of my cashiers brought them cookies

I'm at the Easton Location. They had some food but i only got a 15 min break so all i could do was grab a drink

I'm soooo thankful I have a 8am-4:30pm Mon-Fri job that doesn't really flucuate too much through the year. My hat's off to all the retail sales people. You ALL deserve cookies indeed.

I'm only doing it for x-mas present money but i had to remind myself that alot today.

Chanel works at the Forever 21 over there and had to be there by 4am to start work. She still isn't home yet so I can't imagine what's going on over there. I am glad that even though I will work some long days, weekends, and so forth, that my stress level is never as high as retail. My dealings with insane people are limited to 1 or 2 people in a day depending on the owner or manager of the restaurant.

While everyone else had fun shopping today I had fun making chocolate milkshakes in a KL!

Mmmm, that's where you put the milkshake in

Then it looks like this..

And finally, the intake ports! <font color="magenta">You could eat off of those puppies!</font>

@ the stealership having my wheel bearings checked....

The Front or Rear? I just did mine in the back. You have to replace the whole hub. The front you can tear apart and re press back in. Only got 35k out of them.

happy peppie. usa top gear anyone seen?

It's not that bad. I enjoyed it. The bearded dude is quite funny actually. They do need to be more comfortable with each other when they interact on the set and with their guests. But overall, i was entertained. The blind dude driving should be good next week.

except the service lady working on fri didn't know who i was ... Mrs MARLON SUMLIN!! i thought everyone knew marlon, i guess she was out of the loop. had to take her to the dealership manager who explained to her who we are and what we do ... then all was well. she said when i left "i guess everyone in sales knows your husband" ... used to be everyone at the dealership knew him, until all the turnover ... but i got my oil change done and all ended well.

the blonde one right? cuz the other one knows us, haven't seen her in a while though. I've had to mention the club the last few times so I can get my discount, even little Mike is gone. Now I don't have someone to let me browse their manuals

Hmm, I didn't know about that. Probably would have helped a few years ago when I had my t-belt done there..

I've never been hunting. Not against it by any means, just never had the interest to go do it. The only thing I typically hunt are paper targets. Damn them pesky paper targets.
