             It would seem that I’m more aggravated with my retail job than usual. It’s possibly from putting in so much work for my wish to work from home and write and edit all the time. I feel like I’m on the brink of something great and it makes me impatient to be out of…

  • Retail Ugh

  • Retail Life Episode 31

    It’s been a minute since I posted a retail story, so how about we talk about that today? I hope the gap doesn’t suggest I have had no one get on my nerves, because that sure is a daily occurrence, ha. But I’ve worked at this store for almost eleven (ELEVEN) years now, so I’m…

They come in the store and yell at us for things that are completely out of our control. It gets worse during the holidays because there is more stress going around in general. But that…

  • Retail Life 28

                The last month or so of my retail job hasn’t been too awful. There’s the normal “I can’t believe your bathroom’s broken” still happening and the “When are you gonna get more lysol/clorox wipes/rubbing alcohol/paper towels” every few days. But it’s become bearable. The overall rage people expressed through the first few months of…
