For example...
- I don't like touching the bags of chicken because they always leak. Then there's chicken juice all over my belt. Gross.
- When I see the total on people's orders it makes me sick to the stomach. But I have good reason. I sit there thinking that I make $7.75/hour and they just spent like $100 on groceries. Then I calculate how long I'd have to work to pay that bill. And to think I failed math.
I suddenly understand why people have anxiety about grocery shopping. I have anxiety for the people buying the groceries. I see their totals and I'm saying to myself "Holy Crap! That's a lot of money."
I think I liked babysittng better, plus I could stop the kids from screaming. Yeah, plus my craziness wasn't seen as crazy...it was creativity. Okay no I didn't because little kids wake up at the crack of dawn. Anyone who knows me knows I'm very unattractive in the morning in all respects.
So I like my new job but I'm new so let's give it another week.

I could do a whole posting on all of my grocery store anxieties but I'm afraid to. I don't want to get another chest pain. You know I'm not kidding!
I found my podge bottle yesterday. Guess where it was. On the kitchen table, silly! Where else would it be?
Hang in there. All sucky jobs suck. We all gotta go through it. I'm old and I'll stop the pep talk now!
Chicken juice? Ewww!
Yep. grocery shopping is gross. I actually don't mind my job...yet. It's sucky but not extremely sucky.
chicken juice is basically toxic waste. You will shrivel if you get it on you.
be very careful!!!!!!!!
It's so gross. It makes me insane because then I want to clean the belts but more customers come and I never get to clean it. Then if you say "Excuse me, I need to clean the belt" people get pissy with you. It's the bad side of being a cashier.
Here are some links that I believe will be interested
Keep up the good work. thnx!
