Everybody’s lookin’ forward to the weekend, weekend Shawshank, March 21, 2025 It’s finally almost the weekend! All that stands between me and 48 hours off, is a simple 8 hour shift at work. Good morning everyone! Welcome to one of the best days of the week – Friyay! Work wasn’t too bad yesterday. I read that there were 3 people on the closing shift the day before, and saw that a coworker decided not to fill the propane. So yesterday, I told my coworker that I was going to fill them, not knowing how many were empty. I walk out to the propane cage, and notice that there are 6 empty tanks. Well, shit. So I haul them over to the filler , and started. I was working with a good guy yesterday, and he soloed the store while I was outside. So let me back up a little. The rink came with 3 tanks to fill and he was wandering around the store. I told him next time just come in, and tell us that you have tanks to fill, that way we can get started on them right away. His excuse: well you looked busy, I didn’t want to bother you. Sir. Sir, with all due respect, we always look like we’re busy. We work in retail. We can make folding a piece of paper look like that’s what we’re supposed to be doing at that moment. So I went out. Originally he was just going to get one tank filled, but hung out while I did all three. Then I started in on the 6 tanks. After that, it was just steady in the store for most of the afternoon. There was a hockey game that evening so me and the part timer were trying to figure out when the game started, and when we thought the game would be over. So we missed the post-game rush. Good times. But it’s a new day here the sun is shining, and looking at the weather app, we’ll be heading to SlightlyBiggerTown while it snows tomorrow. That means Crystal will have her head down and not looking. Hopefully the app is wrong. But if it isn’t, it is what it is. We need supplies. But first – coffee. Happy Friyay everyone! Life blogbloggercoffeejournalmorningsTinyTown
