Have I mentioned lately how much I love Ani? Because I do. Damn. It's actually impossible to listen to "Angry Anymore" and "Everest" and not feel good. Go ahead, try it. I dare ya!
Man, the weather is like not fuckin' around, now. It is COLD outside. Not cold, mind you, but COLD. Sweater, winter jacket and gloves, cold. Brr. Lots of parents took their kids inside the mall tonight, because the stores give out candy to trick or treaters. I bet they chose to do that, because it was so freezing outside. There weren't many people actually shopping, but the mall was full of kids in their costumes. McDonalds was like insane, when I went there on my lunch. All these little kids, dressed up, on total sugar highs, chasing each other around. Heh. It was cute. The kids were so adorable. All these toddlers and 5/6 yr olds, dressed up like witches and princesses. I was like (in my head) "Oh, for God's sake, would you look at that! How are you supposed to be in a bad mood, when there's a three year old in a Tigger costume standing in front of you?" I didn't even stand a chance, against that kind of cute!assault. Hee, tink, next time we have one of our Cute!Wars, I'm just going to be all "Four words, my friend: Little kid, tigger costume."
I got a migraine though, which kind of sucked hairy asshole. But it was all right. I'm thinking Frowny Face (the new girl, who made the jeans look beeyootiful yesterday. But, yeah, she's Frowny Face, because she's not a smiley person.) might end up quitting. Just a hunch. She seemed ripe for some rantin' tonight, because she found out Sears usually just gives half hour lunches, and two fifteen minute breaks, for people who are scheduled nine hours. She was all "In California, it's required by law that you take an hour lunch!" I was like "I have no idea if it's law here. I guess just ask a manager? But, yeah, we usually do half hour lunches. Although, I know Justin has taken an hour lunch before, so who knows." She was like "Sigh!" Heh. And later on, she brought up the whole "stay as late as it takes" thing, and was obviously not pleased over it. Like "At my other Sears, we always left by ten. If they want me to stay later, they should schedule me later. I've already worked nine hours at ten, and now they want me to work overtime?" I was just like "I know." She's not very friendly, at least off the bat (but I've known people who aren't friendly at first, but are once you get to know them, so perhaps she just seems grumpy), but I hope she doesn't quit. We could use someone who has worked for Sears before, and knows what they're doing, rather than another freaking new person who's clueless. See, this is exactly what I meant, when I said the other night that they're shooting themselves in the foot. They're pushing their employees so hard, trying to get everything done, that they're making employees not want to work there, so the turnover rate is all high, and nothing ends up getting done because we never have enough people. They don't get that, though. I'm sure that after the holidays, things will ease up a bit, though. But the next couple months are just going to be fucking insane. I'm looking forward to January like a motherfucker.
