First I got to work a little early because frieght manager was already at work. Seems that the night manager called in sick. Meaning the day manager was closing the store.
One cashier showed up.
That meant 3 people to run the store from 9-5.
The cashier did good alone till lunch. I priced the food stock and loaded it on the u boats, frieght manager stocked it.
At noon I was on register with the other associate for an hour, got busier so frieght manager got on a register.
The cashier went to lunch at 1 o'clock, the frieght manager went at 2 o'clock, I went at 2:30. We couldn't help but go later, it was steady flow of customers.
I finally got to clock out at 6 pm, an hour overtime.
We didn't get all the food stocked but it's down to one u boat.
I can't wait till work gets back to normal. With everyone back at work.
I can say that I'm extremely tired tonight.
How was your day?

You are killed with work but it must be a good store for so many customers to keep it busy Angie.
I hope you will be tip top shape soon, bet your water pipe fixed and feel better as well as your sister.
And I hope everyone comes back to work.

@andriaperry That's fine, it's totally ok to protect your privacy. I was just wondering if I had missed you saying.

You seem to enjoy your work. There is no better companion than work that one loves to do.

@andriaperry I was immediately back to "normal food". I like to keep the holidays "short".

It's hard to run a store with a short staff. My day was quiet and uneventful.

@andriaperry true, hopefully management sees it and recognizes those that put in the effort to be there.
