Welcome

I'm still so lost on this new blog look. Not really on here enough to take the time and figure out what's different. Work has been crazy this past week! But I've actually enjoyed myself. Monday I worked my usual shift 6:30 am and was only scheduled til 1 but stayed til around 2:15. The last 3 days were my 4 am shifts. We have been remodeling this week so one of the area supervisor's and one other employee were the overnighters and they took everything OFF the shelves. Then me and another employee went in at 4 to put everything back. That may sound simple but let me tell you, it is very time consuming. Having to move shelves after the guys that came to put them together already had them set up, and following the map as to where which merchandise goes where. Not to mention, everything is completely different from where it was before so we had to learn the flow of the store all over again. The reason me and the other guy that I work with were the ones chosen to do these lovely early shifts is because he is the former full time hardlines (aka home depsrtment) associate and so he had to train me as I will be getting his old position, because he's going to another location. So I'm excited about that! After all my hard work and a long 4 years (almost 5!) I'm finally getting what I know I very well deserve. I will also be back up mod (manager on duty) and once an area supervisor position opens up it's mine :) I'm so thankful for the hours I've put in this week. All full shifts and even some overtime! Which is perfect timing because that gives Josh and I more money towards our Oregon trip as well as bills. So Tuesday was the start of my early days 4-1ish, Wednesday 4-12, and today 4-1. Tomorrow I'm 10am-6pm. With the weekend off (sleep sleep sleep!). That only adds up to about 40 hours but recently they changed some things withe the company. 24 hour rule. So for example, since I worked at 6 am on Monday and had to be back the next morning less than 24 hours hours from my Monday shift, it counts as 2 hours overtime. That only applies if it's a full shift. So had I only worked say 6-10 and then my shift Tuesday was 4-8 then it wouldn't be overtime. I hate that rule and I know the managers do because it makes it so much more difficult to make the schedule. Well enough of my blabbing. Going to do a post on my beautiful nieces and handsome nephews.
