2% commission?! From a main-street shop, that's...a bunch. Is it not? I mean, if I got a weekly 2% from my work, I'd be getting an extra £200 a week or something...

I'm not officially A. manager, as in paper work wise, but I do have the full time hours now.
It's more stressful. But I' garanteed Sundays off and I get a 2% commision from total sales.

Ok, touche. All I get to do is dress up like a robot with cardboard boxes. Our wrapping-paper-roll-sword-fighting skills have been commended by several customers, though.
So, you're now the assistant manager, right? What's that like? More importantly, what's the pay like?

No. But we have our own ways of playing with the stock.
When we're bored we'll just randomly walk around and put button pins on our nametags [we have "Welcome to Ardene" with lanyards], we'll throw on a scarf or pick stuff up for ourselves. When we get new stock though, that's when all hell breaks loose. We'll rummage through the boxes and try on the the shirts, squeal at the new knee highs that have piano keyes on them, and try the purple hair streaks [which look great on me XD].

I forgot to say - while I was travelling I met a Canadian girl from Edmonton, said she knew the shop you worked at...
The various sightseeing sounds like great fun - I'm expecting some damn good photos, mind you. Preferably tasteful ones, that is.
Alas, we're too far away from any coffee places to get such luxuries...instead, we pile up heaps of kitchen towels andpacks of toilet rolls and jump on them when the day's dragging. It passes the time. Bet you can't do THAT with your fancy fashion, can you?

Well, we're going to check out the Fringe Theatre, some shopping, a nice dinner, taking some photographs, West Edmonton Mall [second largest mall in the world], the movies, sleeping in [lol!] and anything else we can think of.
Oh, good thing you were able to find some work. I'm switching over to full time now. Woo-Hoo, money! I love our store, we're such cool people. On Friday there was four of us working [Jing, Vanessa, Kim and I] and we were pretty bored. We decided that we'd all have coffee and ice cream and sent out a couple people to get everything. It's always so much fun working with them, we're always laughing.
I hope they don't think Josh is a creeper when he comes around the store. XD He'll be at City Centre a bit before my shift is over, so he's going to have to wait for me. I told him he should get something from Purdy's and just chill in one of the comfy chairs they have outside. lol

Cool - sounds like fun What kind of stuff do you have planned?
Well, I have my oh-so-badly-needed job...exactly where I was before. If I didn't know I was going to Uni in two months, I'd be worried I wasn't going anywhere...still, 38 hours of work in the first week is probably a good (if painful) start...

I guess I shouldn't be complaining. I haven't been on much either. I've mostly been talking to Josh, planning stuff for when he's here. Woo-Hoo, only one more week left! I'm so excited! XD

I know, I know, sorry...I've just been tirelessly (but eventually tiringly) working my arse off trying to get a job to pay back the bank before Uni in less than 2 month's time, or they'll have my kneecaps...and you'd be amazed how many people A) will pay enough to save £800 in two months, or will even employ me for such a short space of time...so, you'll have to excuse me if I haven't been able to find a huge amount of time for anything, you know, fun.
