On Fire by Spiritualised
So, last night Miss C was actually...nice. Now, I have yet to
figure out if she was being genuinely nice, or whether it was fake
nicety, since she did come out with the quote that Shoe is probably two
faced since “The nicest people are two faced, that's how they get away
with it in the first place.” Very interesting. I'm always
interested in what people say, because nine times out of ten, they will
let slip something really deep and hidden.
Apart from that it was a really dull shift. One of those that my
herbs and spices kept me going through. Them and my MP3 player on
the my Nokia N800. Ok, so, we had two drive offs, but neither of
them were while I was around, and since I'm not in charge anymore, I
don't really care. We get the money back one way or another, and
if it goes to court we get more, so, meh.
Since Miss C was on the tills, I didn't even get any interesting
customers to serve. This said, because it was a Thursday, I did
have to appear big and scary to some of our more...light fingered
customers. Worryingly, I actually enjoy this part of the
job. And I don't know when it happened. It has certainly
become a part of me over the last year or so. I guess it's
because I know the odds are in my favour. Strange as that may
sound! But...I have had people come up to me with bottles and
knives, and they've never used them. You find most people are all
talk and no substance. I suppose it does help that I'm 6 foot
tall and have no problem staring someone right in the eyes.
There is one very satisfying thing about not being a supervisor
anymore. I no longer have to worry about whether or not I am
going to get a phone call from Pedro. I know I won't, because I
am not in charge in any capacity. If anything goes pear shaped,
the other person I am with will get the blame. Nice. I do
so love it when other people carry the can for things in the bigger
picture. And the thing is, whilst what I am doing at work might
not be hugely important (stacking shelves) I am working with computers,
as I always wanted via this blog, which in turn is due to my “real”
job, and I get to do creative stuff due to the colleague circle!
So, I think that's pretty much it. Tonight, depending on whether
the weather holds out, I may be having a BBQ at mine with friends, or
it may be a pizza in front of the TV with friends, watching the first
eviction from Big Brother and then the Isle Of Wight festival! |
