REGULAR IS NOT A SIZE

All of this happens multiple times a day. It is not an exaggeration. Well, maybe less swearing.

I'm Mr. Manager!

After a twelve hour shift today I'm teetering on the precipice of 40 hours in just four days. The next three days are all overtime. Yeesh!

Things have been really hectic with last minute construction and register training. The store has brand new Micros registers, much like you'd use at any restaurant. Barnie's has officially entered the modern age at West Town. In addition to this we now have a dish washer which is going to cut down on close times, as well as other miscellaneous amenities that give the store an air of newness.

We open tomorrow, which marks my first day of real responsibility at work.

Wish me luck!

I'm Back!

Christ, what a weekend!

Thursday I moved into my new apartment. It was a long, exhausting day, even with help. I finished moving on Friday, and began settling in as much as possible.

Saturday I went to Graham and Lin's wedding in Gatlinburg. It was a very nice and moving ceremony, performed by Lin's father, followed by a reception. It was all held outside in a park, and the weather was fortunately pretty mild. It was great to see the whole Case family again.

The next morning I returned to Barnie's to help prepare the store for re-opening on Thursday. Most of you know this by now, but I've gotten a new job as assistant manager at Barnie's. Several people are returning that worked there before, which is great.

The amount of work going into opening both the West Town and East Town stores in such little time is overwhelming, but it's going smoothly. I've put in many hours this week (27 in three days), with many more to come. It's crazy right now, but I'm enjoying it. Still, I look forward to everything calming down after the initial opening.

That's pretty much my life right now. I'm trying to catch up on all of my interneting, now that I'm connected once more.
