so much for TPR ep#8!
so much for more talking with Andrew!!
so much for finally thinking I have a life outside of work!!!

One of the girls at work, Amy, who has been working every day for the past two weeks and truly deserves a break, called me at about 12:30 asking if I could do her shift tonight. Seeing as I didn't have anything "real" planned, and seeing as she has been working every day for the past two weeks, I said I'd do it.
think of the money... think of the money... think of the money...

edit: oh, and I feel really stupid about this, but... in case I didn't tell you, Andrew, my name is David ^-^; I noticed sometime last night after I signed out that I possibly hadn't told you, so... now you know.

=D

...and didn't she cover for your 12 hour shift last week too? But yeah, don't worry! More shopping trips for us!!

No. I do feel for you. I feel the same sometimes when I get called for work. I should be grateful, but eh... sometimes I want to sit down and enjoy the things I've worked hard for.

yeah, she did the first three hours and I did the last nine, both last thursday and yesterday. so... just pretend I wrote that bit in, too

Oh I so know the feeling.

lol

it doesn't make me feel better, but I no longer feel alone in my work-related aggravation

And I'm gonna be late anyways now - my uniform still isn't dry - I'm supposed to be there in 5 minutes

:(

Think of the money. It's always worth doing it over just doing it to be friendly. :p

I'm not only doing it for the money :P It's usually more that I have no spine, though in this cass Amy does deserve a day off.

It's just that that is what everyone tells me when I get a shift I don't want but am forced to take anyway. And it's what I tell other people as a kind of non-joke joke.

Aww, that was a really nice thing to do though, so even though the money is good, just the thought of being able to help someone (cause hopefully they'll do the same for you) should be pretty good too! :D

And yeah, I already knew your name from somewhere. I think you said it in one of my comments or something? :)

I know. Apparetnly she didn't do the shift because she'd gotten a bad report from head office or something...? She's been there almost as long as I have, she's better than me, and it was my shift she was doing when head office came by, so...

lol, oh good. I was kind of worried for a bit there, but still, I wish I'd introduced myself properly ^_^;
