Inventory
Oh, the joys of working in the retail industry. In about three hours, I’ll be heading to work to do my first overnight shift. It’s Inventory Time! I get to work from 9pm-6am tonight/tomorrow. And then tomorrow night/Saturday I work from 10pm-6am, or actually, to be specific, until we get what we have to get done, each night. It could be 3am, it could be 7am. I’m glad I’m getting lots of extra hours this week, AND holiday pay which I was totally under the impression that I wouldn’t get. I definitely am. My only concern is transportation. I might be waiting outside by myself for a couple hours until my ride can come. But I’m hoping if it gets to that point, someone will be nice enough to bring me home. I don’t really care to sit outside our store, in the cold, and in the middle of the night, alone. But we’ll see. Tonight will be a learning experience. I know I’m going to be tired. I kept trying to figure out how I should be prepare. Try to stay up all night and sleep all day, or just wing it. I guess I’m just winging it because I was asleep before 3 and slept until 11. I’m not stressing over it. I’ve pulled all nighters before. I can surely do it again!
I don’t mind working during the night because I enjoy working in the quiet when there aren’t any people in the store. People are the worst part of a retail job, haha. I hope you are able to get a ride home.
