Lets start with some awkward moments of the day. Like when I had to record a message three times because 1. If I moved at all during it the signal would warble even though I was outside in an alley-like area behind the store. 2. I was somehow completely inept at speaking and not flubbing sentences "...calling about my hiring...situation...thing...shit" (press 3 to cancel and rerecord).
Or when I noticed one of my co-workers who is still fairly new (or at least new enough and on the other side of the store so there is minimal interaction with him) wearing a Rangers baseball cap and I did this geeky gun fingers with a shrill stretched out "Ni-ce Ha-at!". I mean, there was a certain measure of purposeful geekiness but his luke-warm reaction made said intention seem to just be plain awkward and therefore simultaneously hilarious to me...just not in the way I meant it to.
Then there was Kristie being fairly short about the bills we all should be worried about taking care of since her boyfriend said he would do it but then has not said another word about it. No surprise there. So she tells me "If you are worried about it you should contact Brie because I have too many things going on and I know I should but I don't care about them". Spoken like a true adult. And when the electricity and water goes out I hope she can manage a care then. Then when Sandra was frightened by the couple lurking in the dark on their way up the stairs she made fun of me making fun of her because I am "...the one who insists on locking the door because you think someone will murder us". Umm...that or steal shit but lets all be reckless for reckless sakes, shall we?
