I actually realized today how much I missed work. Yesterday I got really tired/bored since it was an 8-hour day and we're just doing mark ups ALL WEEK. Yesterday I was like, "Man, I can't do this for a living." I did the same thing all day long. It was just really monotonous & I got really bored
But today (a 7-hour shift. OMG, thank goodness) I realized how much I missed the store :( Got to work with Mel, Sam & Nicole for the first time in Classic Designs history (well technically I got yesterday, haha) I'm actually pretty sad. I missed going to work and interacting with people my age Vs. now when I just interact with younger kids. I missed my coworkers even though I'm not close to all of them & my "new favorites" are gone. I missed singing at work & being a gangster even though I wear Disney stuff. I missed sticking paper on people's backs and wheeling around the store in chairs. I missed taking breaks longer than supposed to, and being allowed to go out & get food and have it not counted towards our breaks. I missed people my age. I missed talking about stupid stuff. Man, I'm going to miss all this when this week ends, even though they're "grown up" 8-hour days. 37 scheduled hours this week. That's almost a full time job. I want to be scheduled for the 31st too, just so I can get the feel for a full time job, even if it's just a week.
I'm really going to miss the store after this week :( Least I was able to work for a week during Winter though. Usually they don't need the help. & I'm going to miss how chill it's been. I mean.. during the summer it's chill in the beginning, but there's always new employees and it's awkward in the beginning. And everyone has 50 different jobs and there's not much socializing. This week, everyone is working on pretty much the same project and the actual store is closed so there's no customers to worry about. & we don't even have to wear our work polos. It's just so chill. We're all in the front and the boombox is out & we're all singing along and laughing (Even though "loud laughing will not be tolerated"). Man, I'm going to miss this.

  1. I feel like you completely captured everything I'm going to miss about this entire week. I wish the school year were more like this. But you forgot to mention how much you're going to miss our themed days ;)
