jon_chaissonIt's been A Week. And it's only Thursday.
It all started on Saturday when we got a call from one of my coworkers that opens in the mornings saying they'd be out for the rest of the week for a family emergency. Then come Monday, one more coworker who said they'd be changing their hours that day ended up calling out, and a third who'd given her two weeks decided to just not come in for the rest of the week. So yeah, three people out and a lot of frantic shuffling to figure out who can fill in.
it all culminated yesterday with me doing a rather simple 6 -1:30 shift that usually isn't all that bad, but I spent almost the entire time at the registers BY MYSELF, with the occasional but not consistent help when we got more than a few people in line. I was so exhausted by the end of that I was actually dizzy, and I'm still feeling it today. I'm thinking it might be a tension headache from having such a busy week along with a few other personal things going on.
Suffice it to say I have nothing major planned today other than doing some laundry and a bit of writing. And relaxing.
