Because of the unusual and merciless badgering/harassment of my good friend/enemy canned tuma (in spring water), Chicken of the Sea(cret Place), I will put this post up, even though I’m not into it right now. Being a criminal mastermind has its drawbacks. There’s zoning issues and lawyers, henchman that are always getting into trouble, dangerous guard-gribbles to contend with, and of course, most folks know my identity. However, I must rant about what my next week at my day-job looks like. I am transitioning to a new store. The exiting manager of that store will be leaving this week. I will not be taking over for 2 weeks, when a new entering manager, who doesn’t live here yet, will be taking over my store. In the meantime, I’m training 2 new people, as well as 2 new supervisors, ensuring that my current ASM is ready for a store by the end of November (turning 8 months of training into 8 WEEKS of training), teaching classes, changing my entire cash handling system, and getting ready for a new promotion. Confused yet? I am. I’ve practically forgotten the joy of being on vacation, but I will definitely record my thoughts in the near future. That’s the crazy thing about work, you know? You can get comfortable with everything going at a nice little click, and then suddenly, BAM. Your day becomes, well, like this..  P.S.  If you want to hear a little bit about my New Mexico trip to hold you over, you can check out my post on the Tuma blog HERE.
