So I think when you stopped shopping I started. it's like when someone breaks a leg and is in a lot of pain so the friends get sympathy pain (Or like in in certain "Perfect" friend of ours world, where she gets super quick barely there periods and I get mine twice a month, so I can bleed for the both of us. Too much?) Anyway. Back to what I was saying, My name is Ashley and I am a shopaholic. (And a wino at the moment) Yup. I need to go ahead and kick that one in the booty. If I can give up meat and cheese I can give up shopping. I may need to take up knitting or something though.
I did download the songs you told me to. I'm listening to them now. And I really love Meiko.
ADHD, I'm all over the place tonight. So here's a little story you're going to (hopefully) love.
So I go to my first official store-wide meeting. All of the girls from my store carpool up to the other store. We get there, mingle, (kind-of) eat pizza (Yes I ate cheese, and I am now regretting it) Do a cheesy little mixer, and then get down to "business" Where the owner proceeds to go down a list of things that she is pissed about or has noticed. But instead of telling the people who it's an actual issue with, she bitches at all of us, this includes two new girls who haven't even started yet. Ummm... super professional. Then she goes through some long speech on how to be a great salesperson. Which is fine (although I'm remembering that, although I may have retail talents, selling to people is not one of them) So anyways, she's going through this whole thing, and she gets towards the end and is telling us we need to really step up our customer service "because of the- I don't believe it and hate the word- recession." (Insert dumbfounded, baffled, bewildered look here) YOU DON'T BELIEVE IN THE RECESSION!? You better believe that if I hadn't had carpooled and if my car wasn't 45 minutes away, my (now skinnier) ass would have walked itself right out of there and not looked back. I mean you've got to be kidding me, although this is the same woman who just took a private jet to Palm Springs last weekend, and because it was so nice decided to stay a few extra days. Must be nice, since there's not recession and all. I'm still livid. How do I attract these people, why do I keep working for small businesses. So I'm applying for new jobs as we speak. (Or as I type)
I just needed a little vent. Sorry I let it out on you darhling.
Love you and Miss you!! Can't wait to see you soon!
