It is true, I work at Bowman's. Oh, it's a joy. I've been working there since August of 2008 and after perfecting the art of facing, I moved up to a checker in June. For those who don't know, facers are the fabulous people who pull everything to the edge of the shelf and make it look pretty. It's a glorified position. The flexible hours were nice, but the lack of hours...wasn't so nice. That's one good thing about checking, you get more hours, which means more money. However, I've realized something. Work is lame. I would so rather be hanging out with my friends than standing in a grocery store. And guess what? It turns out that all grown ups do is work. How is that even fun? I so don't want to be a grown up. I told that to my mom and she said "Hmmm...You shoulda thought of that before you decided to be born." Yeah, thanks, Buddy.
Things I don't like about my job...
---Long shifts with nowhere to sit
---I have to do math...in the middle of the summer...I can barely do it during school, how can I do it during the summer??
---I actually have to work...what is this?!
Things I like about my job...
---Money...not a bad thing to have
---I occasionally feel productive after I get home
---I get to see TONS of people! Sometimes my friends and family will come if they know I'm working, I'm getting to know people that I see all the time, and every once in a while I'll see someone I haven't seen in a long time and it just makes my day. It actually makes working worth it.
