Double shift of doom!

[go_team]

So I've been home from work for just over an hour, and I've taken a shower, but I just got the call I was dreading when I left --- the 5 PM guy is sick and hasn't been able to find anyone to replace him. So I'll be going back in to work shortly, perhaps with a stop in between to get a haircut. Yee-haw. Maybe I'll learn to close some more (as far as I can tell so far, this just involves a lot of cleaning and putting lids on stuff and remembering to turn off all the appliances that don't need to run overnight). Chances are they'll let me go as soon as possible, though, since I'm working at 7 AM tomorrow, and it would be really shitty to not be done until 11 PM, which is usually when the closers finish up. On the other hand, sticking around might be good practice for next week: Spearhead is in town on Thursday, and I'm thinking of going despite the fact that I have to work at 7 the next day. Depending on how today goes, it'll probably decide whether or not I go with that plan. Whee! Ok, better get going now.

I hope you had a good second shift. They better have let you go home early, 'cause, damn, otherwise you might as well just throw a mat on the floor and never leave ;) Did you get that raise you asked for a bit ago? You certainly deserve it.

I did have a good second shift (it's really slow at night), and I got out a little after 9, so by 9:30 I was home and showering. I should get enough sleep tonight to survive tomorrow just fine =) Also, I should be getting my raise very soon, yes, perhaps not for the pay period ending tomorrow but almost certainly for the one that begins on Saturday. So that's good. It turns out that the 5 PM guy cut himself really badly at his A.M. job, and that's why he couldn't come in. It looks like he's covered for tomorrow, which is good, since I don't want to pull doubles two days in a row, no sirree.
