touching base

Well I'm not on pooter much right now since I'm avoiding the office :) and am working a lot at a certain retail emporium and the library computers are often full. So whatever.

Work is fine - at worst pretty benign and at best... well pretty benign... altho I do like it when I'm scheduled in books and Ellen leaves me projects to do. The register is a different story since they're training practices consist chiefly of negative reinforcement. I should say their practices with me because actually two trainees since me I have noticed are getting a much better low-down on things than I ever did. Whatever. The weird thing is that it doesn't bother me too much. I guess if I were full time it would but I'm feeling pleasantly apathetic most of the time (there is the occasional frustration of course) and just do my job the best I can and if I don't know how to do something I keep bugging people til I get help. Also I ignore the tone which is most often delved out with the ever-present "Well you shouldn't be doing it that way."

Yeah I remember when I was in that self-important retail manager zone myself in an establishment and with a staff both of which were in general much more worthy of self-importance... but whatever. On my worst day here I still mostly kick ass so the 25-yr-old zygote managers with the verbal eyerolls can go ahead and think they're as hot shit as ever and that's fine.

Huge apologies to all blog buddies - I promise I'll make it to the office soon where I can spend more time reading and responding.
