i died on the cross, as well...

i know, i know...my lack of blog action recently has been DISGUSTING.
however, as it's been easter week...it's been really busy and the shifts i've been doing recently have been going into double figures.
thursday night i did 10 hours, yesterday i did 16 hours...and in the few days inbetween i've done another 16 or so hours...so i am exhausted.
however, i have had loads to say...just no energy to say it!

things i will mention here now, though:

1. people registering their disgust yesterday and on good friday that we had no easter eggs left. well, don't you think that the day AFTER easter is leaving it a bit late?
2. the fact that easter is our busiest time of the year, even above christmas...isn't it lovely people want to come and celebrate the ressurection of jesus by shopping with us?
3. the cretin that wanted to buy friday's newspaper with a voucher for saturdays paper. NO. YOU CAN'T DO IT SO LEAVE ME ALONE!
4. people going so slow they almost stopped. they wouldn't move their bags so i could pack more on the counter/they were taking a whole ice age to get their money out of their pockets/they wouldn't leave after i'd given them change and their receipt which resulted in me having to literally sling their shopping at them before they bothered to even move. this wasn't just one customer it was about five or six. WHEN WILL PEOPLE UNDERSTAND I HAVE NO PATIENCE FOR DITHERING CRETINS!
5. some joker thinking it was funny to leave the taps on in the sink in the toilet and to wedge tissue paper where the plug should go.


i left at 2pm on Bad Friday...and went straight to bed to lay down in a dark room.
okay, thats a lie...i actually went SHOPPING!
i know, i'd finished at midnight the night before after ten hours in a shop, i then got up at 4am and arrived at work at 5.15 to do another eight hours in a shop...and then i go SHOPPING.
but, i needed to buy some alcohol and a small amount of comfort food (lol!) because i had a feeling over easter i was going to need it.
as it happens, my little adventure into yet another retail jungle was very interesting because all the customers were jolly and helpful and polite...

...so it's either OUR shop they hate...or just me.

(blog about yesterday will be up later, but now i must leave to go pay my electricity bill. joys.)

until next time...xxx
