Daisalana 33 Posted December 21, 2007 We only had x-mas day off, but since 99% of our customers are closed on Monday, they decided we're closed Monday & Tuesday. But in reality all our customers are closed today too. So I decided we're leaving here at 3, 2 hours early.. but IT IS SO SLOW!!! I've had 2 phone calls, from an employee that was lost on a backroad, and a customer wanting a turn time. That's it. I'm so bored I can't take it. Normally I am swamped with work and the days go by, so on top of anticipating a 4-day weekend, I just can't make this day go by. 2 more hours.. of.. nothing. I brought a book I'm reading to work, but only have 15 pages left... Anyone else bored as hell at work?! :faint: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mariposa Bella 3 Posted December 21, 2007 Yes, it is dead here too. I am heading out and gone until January 2, 2008.. Yeah, I can't wait. I am bummed that I'm not going to Texas and Mexico, but I'm going to make the most of it. Well, wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Take care.

Marimaru 7 Posted December 21, 2007 Yeah, I'm bored. Our boss (who happens also to be my mom) has said she's going to let us go around 1 or 2. The whole week has been slow-ish for me because I've been relatively caught up at work anyway... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Daisalana 33 Posted December 21, 2007 Ouch losing.. you win. I thought my bosses were scrooges not giving us monday off (initially).. Then again, my dad is making me go to the mall with him, and there's all those poor people that are working there.. I sympathize kind of.. I worked at Hobby Lobby during the holidays when I was younger.. Hobby Lobby with their antique cash registers where you have to key everything in, and refunds have to be written out on paper.. and the elderly women who are returning $.01 items by the handfuls during the Christmas sale.. I digress. Maybe this hour won't be too bad LOL! (55 minutes!) I am going to go check out pogo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

steph_co 9 Posted December 22, 2007 The benefits of working in a tourist town...I am very busy. LOL Tons of people here for Christmas. No - I'm not bored. Kind of wish I was. All these out-of-towners need to go home. BAD drivers and people who think the whole town is a pedestrian mall. I'll trade ya. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
