Yeah, here isn't quite at black Friday levels of busy, but we're still busier than normal and frequently understaffed.

we're finally not all that understaffed - i think we still are friday afternoons though. yeesh. i mean, i know there's a "retail formula" that tells you based on what you made during this week last year, how much your forecast is for this year, and based on that forecast here's now many hours you get for cashiering, and the floor, and framing.... and then the manager has to divide that up throughout the week and the employees, and then we end up with four people (manager, 2 cashiers, framer) in the middle of a friday afternoon and we get a ton of customers.
oh, and it's not always adjusted for the same weeks either. i believe Week 1 is like the first full week in march or something like that. so that if easter one year was early (say, end of march - Week 4) and then late one year (say, mid April - Week 7) they're now comparing Week 4 where there was no sales on that sunday to a day that's open. and in Week 7, you're expected to do $1000 worth of business, but you don't make forecast because you're closed on Easter... yeah. it's messy. in other book news - i requested a book be purchased last month (pretty sure it was last month), but then i ended up getting a copy of the book....and the library still ordered it. and now it's ready for me to pick it up, so i guess i ought to go "check it out" and then drop it outside in the book drop for them to check back in in another three days XD

Finished another book! Only 2 more to go, but now by brain is doing the "but I don't wanna read those books! I wanna read something new!" thing. But I am trying to resist.
Also, dug through my bookshelf the other day and pulled out a bunch of books that I liked when I was younger but don't really care for as much now or that I bought but probably won't re-read and am gonna slowly work on taking them over to a little free library that I always walk by on my way to work. But I legit pulled out probably 20-30 books, so it's gonna take some time...what with the whole not having a car thing... | ||||

Lol true.
Though tbh, I feel like I'd need to at least make him the iconic (stereotypical) hat and mayne a broomstick. | ||||

Still need to add a stripe of ribbon on the hat and attempt to make a little broom. But I'm pretty pleased with how the hat turned out!
