Happy Side of Winter
Last Sunday I had to trudge four blocks through a foot or more of un-shoveled snow to get to work at 5:30am. It was so not fun. All along the way I was talking to myself asking myself why I had to be so dumb as to work in a job that actually matters. (If no one gets to the cash registers at Target, who cares, but if old people don't get food, yeah, that just isn't ok. Someone has to be there, and since I live so close, I have no excuse for not going.) I was also saying that if one person complained about the food that day...
I was pooped by the time I got there. But whatever, I got through it. When it's your job you have to do it. Then, on yesterday, happy thing, everyone who worked Sat. night, and Sun. morning got a $25 gift certificate to Target in appreciation for us actually getting there! Woo-hoo! What a happy day!
(Oh, and did I mention that I was speaking to myself in British?)

yay for $25! isn't it nice to be appreciated?
you deserve more than $25. and the old people and their families appreciate you more than $25. and when did British become another language? :-)
it is - they say things like 'loo' and 'cue up' and stuff
and snogging :)
isn't it queue up?
see? i don't even know, cuz it's a different language.
