| So I, have recently, been working hours similar to Fajra. Only, I am not a beautiful, lovely beautician who is amazing and loves tinsel. I am, instead, a slave to Walmart who jumps between being a cashier, garden center employee (lots of heavy lifting), or a warehouse worker (even more heavy lifiting). Lately, I've been doing the later two in sixteen hour shifts... and will have done so, after tomorrow, four days in a row. I owe some posts to a few people... just bear with me through my sudden working spree.

| You don't give yourself enough credit... you're marginally attractive. 
And I feel your pain, man, having worked grocery for years.

| You need to be really good at being a cashier and a garden center employee and then just suck balls at the warehouse so they don't put you there again. That's how I remained a cashier for so long at my old job. "Can you mop that up for us?" "You got it, boss! But what's a mop?" "Nevermind, just stay on the checkstand." "You got it, boss!"

| Awww thanks Jacey ;).
At least Thursday is my last day, and then I can focus on moving. It's true though, about being bad at something so you don't get 'stuck' with it. I open and close. Because I'm willing to work ungodly hrs, and bc they 'need' me to do everything. I'm kind of sad though. I just started on the floor, taking clients, the grunt work was almost over. My Salon has it's own training program, designed by John Dellaria (NY). Or else, I prob would of been on the floor sooner, right after Cosmetology School. Tennessee requires 500 more hours, and their State Board might require me to go back to school. I can't afford that. Even with my parents paying. I have rent, bills etc and I just bought a 2012 Toyota Prius. I suppose I could go to school and find a graveyard shift to work, but I owe it to myself to live a little. Because right now. I'm tired. Exhausted. I'm barely making it through my 15 hour shifts. Maybe I will just be a Makeup Artist. As much as I enjoy hair, and my obsession with tinsel lol.
Hey Jace, ever consider Whole Foods? I know someone who works there, and the benefits are great, especially long term.

| Being a security guard was torture on my sleep schedule. Especially for a guy like me who always want's to hang with his friends.
