Ow...

My god, I'm sore. I think I need to start doing stretches before working eight-hour-shifts on the weekends and senior citizen discount days. I'm having trouble moving my hands and everything aches, and this wasn't even as horrendously busy as it was on Monday.

At least this is the last day this week that I work, due to a quick round of complicated worker shuffling, and on Saturday I leave for Chicago, so this will provide much nice relaxing for the rest of the five or six weeks before I formally leave the world of Big Blue Grocery. It's not a bad job, but the monotony seems to suck a bit of soul out of you and use it to fuel the infernal engines of the meat slicing machines.

Wait. So when they said employees are some of their most valuable resources...oh my god! I must tell the media!

*hugs* I got hand cramp the other day writing up obs at my work... RSI can be a KILLER. :(

And go you on getting out. I think four years in retail has contributed to my misanthropy. :)

There's people there who've been working in the deli for twenty years. For me four months will be bad enough. Mom says it's my 'reminder of why I'm getting a higher degree'.

Arrrrgh I haaaaated the Senior citizen discounts/days when I was a waitress. I hated everything about them.

See, I don't mind, but that's because I love to keep busy. Being slow just bugs me.
