so yesterday was my first OFFICIAL day of being a PIC. it was quite exciting. i got to close the store up, not by myself, but with Cindy (who is pretty much Co-Owner...) she was just doing random stuff, and i hardly saw her. i hadn't even started working and she came up to me and said "Carina, there are some things you need to address to one of the Checkers. he can't have pop in the checkstand, he needs to take his earing out and he doesn't have a nametag!" well, my stomache pretty much dropped. i knew i wouldn't be able to go up to this guy...who used to be "equal" to me, and now boss him around. and i had no idea what to say, so i ran up to the manager Bon and told him what cindy had told me. he was really nice and said "lets both go up to the office and we'll both talk to him." so we did, and bob did all of the talking, i just kind of sat there looking retarded. oh well. you can only learn by experience. after that it was all really easy. i got the nerve up later that night, to ask the courtesy to mop up this gross collection of dirt that had been at the end of aisle 8 for quite a while. and i couldn't figure out how to balance the safe so Cindy did that while i counted out the lottery and my till. it was all quite exciting. and when it came time for me to put my code to lock the store up, the code that bob gave me didn't work, and cindy didn't have one, and bob didn't answer his phone...so we just left it unlocked. this doesn't mean you can go and break into thriftway. that problem has been fixed lol :)

so anyways. last night some girl, who i still have yet to meet, slept in our room. she was here to see the school and stay on campus. and by the time i got off of work, she was asleep. and she left before i got up. sortof like what Me and Hannah do hahaha. last night i set my alarm to get up at 7ish, so i could make it to my dreded English Comp class, and i forgot to make it 7am! so...i woke up at 7:59 and my class was at 8...so i laid there for a few minutes dazed and wondering what i should do and i just fell back to sleep. hannah woke me up half an hour later and said "hey, you have class in half an hour..." and i mumbled..."i had class half an hour ago...." thus began my day today. i'm sortof glad i missed that class. i wasn't prepared. and none of my classmates in that class asked me where i was in my pentateuch class. it must not have been to tramatic not having me there...

well, my day will consist of a little homwork, and then i will go see alissa and get some laundry done at home. man, i love the weekends.

Great job at work, Carina! Soon you'll own the whole Thriftway chain, even though it's not what you want.
When's your next day off?
