windlionI am mostly inspired to post because I have a new icon to show off, courtesy of ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ghostneko. ^^ And I am commissioning her for more art! FEAR! But as I am posting, I might as well update with what's up in life. . .
Since I am fail at applying for internships properly or in the right quantity to get one, I'm back in retail full time- in order to earn money so that I can apply for some /more/ internships, or, y'know, get some transport. This means 40 hours a week of playing bitch for the masses. There are some pros and cons here. . .
Pros:
Cons:
As to which way that goes in the end, that's debateable. ^^;; Right, I need to figure out how to sign up for media fire or something, as I'd like to maul you all with music uploads. Expect that in the future, as I am feeling oddly more inclined to blog lately. I shall have to recount our exploits at the Potter party tomorrow, since I'm thinking about dressing up for the occasion. ^_^ Anyone else going to Potter parties?

Pros:
- I get paid.
I am actually not sitting on my ass, doing nothing.
I may actually get some nice muscle out of the bargain.
People like me there.
I like making people happy.
I'm in one department finally, and I know my shit. Srsly.
Cons:
- The general public consists of morons and asshats.
Those morons and asshats breed, and like to bring their obnoxious children with them.
The store is vastly understaffed, so while I know my section, I'm frequently the only one in it.
My section really, really needs two people at all times.
There is no cover for the 20 minute breaks we're supposed to have.
Lots of people like calling and asking for things that are a bitch to find.
People especially like trashing the fitting rooms while I'm stuck on the register, my personal pet peeve. (People who make messes in public have NO CLASS.)
Apparently we're a great section to steal from.
And working 40 hours a week leaves me too dead tired crazy to do anything else.
