So I've been working in Retail for almost a year and a half and I LOVE it! But just like every job it has it's downfalls.
Honestly I HATE uniforms, I own more clothes then I can count and yet everyday I'm forced to wear Khaki pants. GROSS. I don't mind the jersey so much but Khakis?! Really? so unoriginal. It is hard to find cute khaki pants let alone a pair you don't have to iron every single time you wear them!!!!
Working at the mall is cool because you get discounts on food but mall food gets gross after a while I can only eat so much chow mien, or corn dogs, or even subway. And not to mention paying a dollar for every drink I buy I'm pretty sure i've spent over $200 on drinks over the past year. And trust me I don't get paid the big bucks. Commission can be great because on busy days you can sell over $1000 but the downfall is if someone returns something you've sold them that money gets taken out of your paycheck faster then it went in.
I never noticed before working in retail but there are so many little things we have to do to make our stores look the way they do. Such as facing all of the hangers the same way (yes that is a rule). or putting shirts in size order. and speaking of shirts I can't stand it when customers 'try' to fold shirts and put them back or even worse hide them!!! I get paid to fold shirts so let me do my job!!!
You've all heard the saying "The customer is always right!" But the actual saying is "The customer is always right, unless they're wrong, and if they cause a scene then they are right." It's shocking to me the lengths people go to just to get a discount on an item. And I don't make the prices so yelling at me won't get you anywhere. I also hate it when people treat me like an idiot, I work at a sports store so YES i do actually know about sports. When you buy a Brooklyn Dodgers hat thinking it's a red sox hat even AFTER I told you it wasn't. You look like the idiot coming back to return it. I understand I'm a girl so you wouldn't expect me to name off players but I can.
We are required to greet every customer as they walk in the store, and if you don't greet them there's a chance they could be a 'secret shopper' a secret shopper is a person that our company pays to come and shop in our stores and grade us on appearance of the store and customer service. The last secret shopper I had come in gave me a perfect score BUT they docked me points because I didn't smile very much...SMILE... um you've got to be kidding me. We have hundreds of stores and our cooperate people wouldn't know me if they saw me on the street but they know my name and my numbers and now they think i'm some awful person who never smiles...
Honestly I'm super OCD and a germaphob and it drives me nuts when people put their gross hands on our windows. I clean them every single shift I work.
Other things I hate are how i'm not allowed to sit at work. and our stupid vacuum we have the vacuums you put on your back, they look like something you'd see on Ghostbusters. When people steal things, so stupid... and when people come in at 8:59 and stay until 9:20 when I want to get home and sleep!
Pretty much I get paid to watch TV and it's very embarrassing that I can quote about every commercial out there!

PDA and other things people shouldn't do in public
Alright so i'm all for people being happy, world peace and all that shiz. But honestly some people need to understand that some things should not be happening in public. Hence the title of this post *see title of blog post*
That is great that you are in LOVE seriously! But I don't enjoy seeing too much of it going down in the middle of the hallway or at church....yes at church.
Anyways let me tell you guys a story
It all happened last semester I had scheduled a study room in the library. I had a health final coming up so I thought I'd get a little studying done. Little did I know I'd be getting a FULL ON health lesson. As I walked up to the study room I saw it.....well them...DOING IT!!!! *getting it on, getting down, horizontal dancing* You get it. they weren't studying. It was horrifying!!!!!!
So as you can see I am now and forever scarred for life.

Here are some pictures of a day i spent with Riley, we were at gardner village for 70's night. He was so sweet and sat there while I got a pedicure and even helped pick the color!

How my dad found out I had Mono.......
I haven't been feeling any good lately. Over Thanksgiving break was the worst, I started out with a cold, then i got the flu, and then a sore throat. Which I believed was Strep Throat. So I called my dad up and got him to take me to the doctors. We got there and I got weighted and they measured my height. I weight less then I thought I did which was a plus, but i'm shorter then I thought which is a negative. Then they took a swab of my throat and we waited....
The doctor came in and informed us that I tested negative for strep
"YAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!!" (inside my brain)
"Cool" ( this is really me talking)
"Instead you have a virus.......you have mono" Doctor
"OH CRAP!!!!!!" (both out loud and in my head)
"SHE DOES!!!!" (that would be my father)
Yep so now I have mono.......I've had it a month according to the doctor. This has now a huge joke in my family. I get to hear about it every chance my family gets an opportunity to bring it up.
But I also find it extremly funny. I kiss one guy (like really kiss) and I end up with Mono.....WTF
But i've been playing off my pain by saying things like "I'd give him mono!" when I see a good looking guy. Or asking random people to make out! haha oh geez.
Good thing I'm not a slut.....Thats all for now!
xoxoxoxo
WAIT I TAKE BACK THOSE KISSES I WOULDN'T WANT YA'LL TO GET MONO HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

This is who I am......
Lately I've been thinking a lot about the person I am. So much has been happening in my life, so much has changed my family is changing, my friends are more distant then ever, and I realized when you truly care about someone letting them go can sometimes be the only solution. I am so so grateful for the church, because with out it I would be nothing. This is who I am.....
I laugh at everything
The only people I can get mad at is my parents and brother
I'm scared of whats to come
I've been hurt a lot so it's hard for me to let new people into my life
I'm a quiet person and people may think it's because I'm stuck up but it's very much the opposite, I'm very self conscious
I can't cry, because I told myself at one point in my life that crying is a sign of weakness, but now I wish I could cry
I love to people watch and figure out why people act the way they do
I have multiple laughs
I am OCD about a lot of things
I'm a little bit of a germaphob but I'm getting better
I HATE drama and avoid it at all costs
You can push me around really easy
I daydream about 67% of the day
I love so easy
I've never had an actual enemy
I don't cut corners, I'm a very honest person
I'm very sarcastic
My face expressions show exactly how I'm feeling they are also often humorous to others
I'm very paranoid
I trust people way to easily
I'm very forgetful
I sing in the shower
I love little kid stuff
Orange is my favorite color
I can't swim
I'm always cold
I enjoy wearing extremely high heels
I bite my nails
I take long hot showers
I love taking pictures and won't admit it but love getting my picture taken
I am a wimp and scare so easy
I love eating out
I like to say Hi to strangers
I can't wait to be a mom one day
I'm addicted to diet coke and Facebook
I love getting phone calls
I hope someday a random (or not so random) guy will bring me flowers
I am a really deep sleeper
I'm a very touchy person I love holding hands, hugging, and cuddling
I hate when people wear black and brown solids together
I love babies
I wish i could relive moments
I automatically think everyone's my friend
I wish my life had a theme song, if it did it would probably be can't be tamed or whip your hair or something more classic like Dr.Love ;)
I think dirty jokes are funny
I love love love to tell stories
I meet the most random people
And that is pretty much me and my life!!!
