HAPPY CAMP LAZLO DAY!!!!11
It's been 4 years... but like, the series ended. OH WELL.
Don't remember my dreammmmm. Woke up at 9:30AM and stayed in bed for a while. I went online and surfed a bit after reading Tiff's blog about her trip to the Pokémon Center and how they've got Pokémon Gold and Silver DS there. Omg, why are they remaking old games? STOP? Anyway, I watched an episode of The Sopranos before getting dressed into my uniform for work. I then had some raspeberry yoghurt and left my house at 12:33PM. When I arrived at Joann Fabrics, Ola said that I was late. WHAT? NOOO? She said I was scheduled for 12:30PM and I said that I checked and I was scheduled for 1PM! Heh heh. She was about to call me too... so yeah. Wow. They needed help up front and so I went to my locker and put my stuff away. I looked for my apron and someone stole it and put my name tag on a dirty one. Wow... thanks? I had to put my name tag into the apron holes (which was how Iimmediately knew someone stole my apron--they took my tag off and didn't put it where it's suppose to be) and then went and got my walkie-talkie. Mary and Ola where there and were telling me how late I was. Mary double-checked and I was right! HAHAHAHA! Heather ended up leaving an hour early... so that's what screwed us all up. I went to my cash register and helped out Sandra after punching in at 12:51PM. Yeah, I wasn't late--I was EARLY.
Leanna sent me a text message saying she would come visit me when I was putting my junk in my locker... so I was on the look out for her as I was helping a bunch of people today. So Ola went to lunch and came back to tell me that she needed to go over my file. Oh okay. Anyway, I got a lot of people to sign up to be on our mailing list! WAHOO! I rock! But yeah, during my so-called "down time" I read the training manual to refresh my memory. Ola came and told me to guard my file with my life. Heh okay. But yeah, after helping a ton of people and the line was practically empty, Ola opened up the folder and talked to me, asking to check all the boxes of cashier abilities I knew how to do. Those left unchecked, she went over after people finished being helped. But yeah... most of the training happened after my break though.
Fast fowarding, I went on break at 3:20PM and went into the break room to sit and respond to Leanna's text message that I'd be up front at 3:35PM. She was at Michaels thinking I was there. HAHAHAHA! But yeah, Stephen came in with In-N-Out and told me that I don't have training with him this week and that I might be able to be a framer soon! WOOOO! Mary came in and talked to us for a bit, saying that in 2 weeks... I'll have hours in the framing department! WOOOO! Corrine, the other cashier who's name I will now forever remember, came into the break room. I left to use the restroom and as soon as I was done, I arrived at my cash register at 3:36PM, just as Leanna was coming in to visit! OH HEY! She said that she liked my hair long and so yeah. Ola then came over and I asked her about this paper a guest had that had 40% stuff on it. Apparently that was only for online junk and that it was garbage and she ripped it up. I told Ola that Leanna was a friend of mine who supported me to getting a job here. Heh heh. Leanna had to go and told me that she'll be in Foothill this whole month so we could hang out and whatnot. Oh cool! We could hang out with Lindsey H then! LEanna left and I said bye.
Ola went over what needed to be gone over and even let me learn how to do returns. She talked to me about tax exempt stuff and then when I was helping a guest, oh hey! She got a tax exempt card and Corrine helped me out. Ola then came along and recognized the guest and yeah. We had a swell time learning how to work the tax exemptness! But anyway, as we went down the list of things, I got this one guest whom I had just finished ringing up, only to discover that one of the items she purchase was damaged and that we had to do a return for. Hmm... Ola helped me along the way and it was a long long transaction, but it was cool because our guest didn't mind waiting. Heh heh. But yeah, after that... I followed Ola to the cutting counter.
She went over the last of the cashier stuff, only to realize that there was a whole 'nother page of things to go over. She got over it and said that it was too much to learn in one day. Anyway, I had a LOCK DOWN TEST!!!!!1 It sounded hard, but it was actually another short training session. I needed to learn how to cut fabric. We learned how to do this on our training day (was it our third day?) and so like... it wasn't too hard... but yeah, there was a specific way of handling the fabric before cutting it and like... I had to practice. It didn't take too long though, because the training took about 20 minutes since like... ringing up remnant fabrics at the cash register was like making yellow cut slips there. Cool. But anyway, yeah... it was almost time for me to go and so at 4:45PM, I helped people at the front for a bit and then tried putting some "go backs" to their rightful places. I ended up putting some special order fabrics away and some lady asked me if I knew where the outdoor fabrics where. I called for help and told me to direct her to the cutting counter. And so I did and she got help. Excellent! When I arrived at my cash regsiter to punch out, I said hi to Dana, who was gonna take over the night shift I suppose. Cool.
I followed Ola to the office to let Dana get a walkie-talkie... and let me return my walkie-talkie. I signed out and Ola said that I was totally not late. Heh heh. I went to the break room and Corrine was talking to some chick I don't know and Stephen. I told them about how someone jacked my apron and how it was all dirty now (which I suppose was why they jacked mine--so they didn't have to wash their apron and I so I did). Heh. But yeah, I told Stephen I'd see him next week and checked my schedule. I then went home and arrived at 5:10PM. I left the tube on Everybody Loves Raymond while I prepared my laptop for my drawing for Camp Lazlo Day. I heated up some Santa Fe Progresso soup while watching The Sopranos on On Demand. After that, I started drawing on my laptop during The King of Queens. After that, I watched another episode of The Sopranos before calling Phoebe at 8PM. I got her answering machine and like... left a short "call me back, please" message before watching another episode of The Sopranos. I submitted my deviation and got almost immediate comments and whatnot. Wow... how shocking -_-.
At 9PM, my mom came home and like... I was preparing to go watch Top Chef Masters in my parents' room. My mom brought me some hot chicken Subway... and I actually thanked her (I kinda had to think about saying thank you too since we were still kinda... not close). I asked my mom if I could eat in [my parents'] room and she said yes. I ate half of my sandwich downstairs and then went upstairs to watch Top Chef Masters. On Twitter, Sailor Ember Phantom tweeted that my fangirl's new deviation was totally Camp Lazlo inspired with like... the same exact bean scout uniform and the same warm color scheme, cabin, yellow sky, and PA system as Camp Kidney from Camp Lazlo. It's like... how could she NOT know what Camp Lazlo is when she blatantly ripped off everything about Camp Lazlo into her drawing? Like... I've got evidence to prove she knows about the show, so like... stop pretending you aren't familiar with it! If you wanna play dumb, at least be GOOD AT IT! I replied to Sailor Ember Phantom's tweet about it.
Dominick called me back and I spoke to him for a bit. He was gonna pack tonight and left on a plane back to California at 3PM EST. He had watched a movie with Phoebe earlier today and so yeah. I was still picking him up tomorrow night at 11PM and like, he told me to find Continental Airlines from Cleveland in the arrivals place. Okay. I chatted a little with him and like, wanted to talk to Phoebe but she was a little busy. Whatever. Dominick wouldn't be able to talk to me until tomorrow night since Phoebe won't be chilling at the airport with him. Bummer. But yeah, I said bye and watched Top Chef Masters episode. That's pretty much it. Tomorrow I'm gonna wash my dad's SUV, go to the gym, and pick up Dominick at LAX.
Today was fine.
