OK, WELL UH........MY NEW CO-WORKER IS NICE AND SWEET, BUT DAMN, SHE IS A LITTLE WEIRD!!! I FOUND OUT MANY THINGS THAT SHE DIDN'T NECESSARILY NEED TO VOLUNTEER. FOR EXAMPLE, I DIDN'T NEED TO KNOW THAT SOME OF HER FAMILY MEMBERS WERE ON THE JERRY SPRINGER SHOW, AND WHAT KIND OF DILDO/VIBRATOR HER HUSBAND PUTS UP HER TWAT, AND HOW SHE WOULD COLLECT JUGS OF WATER AT THE PARK WHILE HER KID WAS PLAYING TEEBALL JUST SO THAT THEY COULD "BATHE" IN THE WATER THAT THEY COLLECTED. YEAH, JAW-DROPPING FUN FOLKS, LET ME TELL YA.

WELL, MY GRAMMA'S COMPANION DIED LAST FRIDAY. SHE ACTUALLY WAS DOWN HERE TO VISIT WHEN SHE GOT THE CALL. SHE FELT BAD THAT THE ONLY DAY SHE EVER LEAVES HIM, IS THE DAY THAT HE DIES. BUMMER. WELL, AT LEAST HE IS NO LONGER SUFFERING. I TOLD HER TO MAKE SURE ALL OF HER LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT STUFF IS CURRENT AND UP TO DATE. I WAS REALLY BUSY THE LAST FEW WEEKS WHILE THE BOSS WAS AWAY. I MADE MY QUOTA! IT FEELS GREAT TO DO IT. I HAD A LOT OF FUN WITH CUSTOMERS. I DID A LOT OF BUSINESS. THE BOSS WAS GONE FOR 1 WEEK ON VACATION, THEN THE WEEK SHE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE BACK, SHE WAS VERY ILL, THEN SHE CAME BACK FOR A HALF DAY AND WENT HOME, THEN WAS GONE AGAIN FOR 2 DAYS TO THE SEATTLE MEETING.I HAD THE WEEKEND OFF WHILE SHE WAS ACTUALLY BACK. SO I REALLY DIDN'T GET TO SEE HER UNTIL LIKE MONDAY.

LET ME GO BACK TO THE OTHER VERSION OF "WEIRD" CO WORKER. TO CONTINUE THIS TRAIN WRECK, LAST FRIDAY, I CLOSED THE STORE WITH THE NEW COWORKER. AS I AM ON THE CELL PHONE AFTER HOURS AS WE ARE GOING DOWN THE BACK HALLWAY TO GO TO OUR CARS, SHE RANDOMLY BLURTS OUT "JUST TO HAVE YOU KNOW, THAT THE BOSS DID LEAVE SOMEONE IN CHARGE, JUST SO YOU KNEW THAT." UMMMM, YEAH. I SOOOO WANTED TO ASK "WHO?" HAHA. MY BOSS HAS TOLD ME THAT WHILE WE DIDN'T HAVE AN ASSISTANT MANAGER, THAT I WAS NEXT IN RANK FOR P.I.C. (PERSON IN CHARGE) AND I EVEN HAD TO GO TO AN OUT OF TOWN MANAGER MEETING FOR IT ETC. I HONESTLY DON'T WANT TO BE THE ASST. MGR AND I LIKE MY FREEDOM OF BEING THE LOWLY SALES PERSON. PLUS I DON'T HAVE TO HAVE THE WEIGHT OF RESPONSIBILITY. SO ANYHOO, I REALLY WANTED TO LIKE PUT HER IN CHECK SINCE BOSS HAS NEVER NOT ONCE SAID THAT SHE'D BE IN CHARGE. SHE DOESN'T EVEN KNOW HALF THE STUFF TO EVEN FOLLOW. I DON'T MIND ANSWERING ALL HER QUESTIONS ABOUT THINGS, BUT REALLY, DOES SHE KNOW WHAT POLICIES TO FOLLOW? OH WELL, I JUST THOUGHT THAT WAS RANDOMLY FUNNY. I JUST KINDA FINISHED MY CALL TO THE ALARM COMPANY AND IGNORED HER. HAHAHAHAHA.

I DO KNOW THAT NEW CO WORKER WILL BE THE NEW ASST. MGR IN TIME, AND I AM FINE WITH THAT. I ACTUALLY CAN'T WAIT UNTIL SHE CAN DO ALL THE THINGS THAT THE MANAGER AND I DO. I'D RATHER BE OUT ON THE FLOOR MAKING MONEY, NOT DOING PHONE CALLS AND PAPERWORK. THE PART TIMER PUT IN HER TWO WEEK NOTICE TODAY. I AM KINDA SAD. SHE IS A SPUNKY GAL AND I DON'T GET TO SEE HER VERY OFTEN, BUT IS A KICK TO WORK WITH. WE'VE HAD A LOT OF PEOPLE LEAVE LATELY. I'M NOT LOOKING FORWARD TO HELP TRAIN A NEW PART TIMER, SINCE THEY WILL BE SO PART TIME, THEY HAVE THE TENDENCY TO FORGET THINGS SINCE THEY'RE NOT ALWAYS IN THE STORE.

I HAVEN'T BEEN TO THE GYM IN LIKE TWO WEEKS. I FEEL CRAPPY ABOUT IT. I HAVE THIS WEEKEND OFF AGAIN, SO POSSIBLY THAT WILL BE THE TIME TO GET IT DONE. WE ARE STILL WAITING ON THE WORD OF MY HUBBY'S TRANSFER APPLICATION. THEY SENT A LETTER SAYING THAT HE WAS A QUALIFIED CANDIDATE. WE WENT TO GO LOOK AT SOME HOUSES IN SPOKANE. WOW, IT IS SO MUCH PRICIER!!! MY 6YR OLD SPACIOUS HOUSE WOULD GO EASILY UP THERE FOR ABOUT $220,00-$250,000. I KINDA WAS DISCOURAGED THAT THE HOUSES I LOOKED AT UP THERE ARE SO OLD COMPARED TO THE ONE WE BOUGHT NEWER FOR $157,000. IF WE DO SELL OURS, WE'LL AIM HIGH AND NEGOTIATE FROM THERE STARTING AT AROUND $183,000. A LOT OF CALIFORNIANS ARE MOVING UP THIS WAY. I'VE RUN INTO SOME OF MY OLD CUSTOMERS FROM WHEN I WORKED IN SAN JOSE! SMALL WORLD.

WELL I'D BETTER GO TO BED SOON. BYE FOR NOW!
