In less than ten hours I can finally put an end to this shit-tastic holiday. The majority of the last minute Christmas shoppers have been just insufferable pricks in large numbers. So large in fact that we can’t get anything done. This could be dealt with if they had more than four cashiers scheduled downstairs and not calling other departments to fill in the gaps. This lead to me running literally the entire upstairs alone again. I kept my cool though and probably made some of the cashiers rage a bit though, everytime they needed help over the phone I was already helping a customer, then another customer, then another. Sometimes I had them waiting on the phone for up to 20 minutes. One finally said “Is there anyone else you can direct me to since you’re busy?” and I said “Yeah! They’re all checking!”. Oh that was such a small but excellent pleasure.
I should be going to bed right now, but there’s no way in hell I can instantly go from getting home to going straight to bed. I need to unwind first.
