Busy, busy, busy.

My God it was busy in the shop today. Working never ceases to anger me. Especially when a certain someone tells you he will be doing fuck all but playing games all day with friends. Bastard! But yes anyway, the shop went mental today. We concluded this was because no one realised we were open at the weekend and therefore decided to bombard us on a bank holiday because no one else has to work...grr. There was a funny guy who came in early in the morning with a Halo game, the latest one. He was complaining to Kelv that he'd brought this game 3 weeks ago, he wrapped it up for xmas and there was no game disc in the box when his brother opened it. But he had no proof of purpose and was in a foul mood. Unless he could prove it was from here we couldn't do anything for him. So, instead of being reasonable and thinking of some sort of compromise he stormed out of the shop, throwing the game box across the room! I thought it was hilarious! How old was he?! 10? No, he was well into his fortys, probably older I'd say. Now, okay someone probably did make a mistake with not putting the disc in but it was still entirely the customers fault. One, if you're buying something for a present you usually keep the receipt in case it is wrong or not what they wanted or they already have it. Two, if it was the last one off the shelf would you not watch to see if the disc was put in the box or even CHECK before you wrap it?! Idiot.

We broke our record for sales today, 18k! Not bad for our small little high street shop. One customer I served wanted two TVs, one big one small, a computer monitor, a wii remote (which we'd sold out of), a mouse and an SD card. Phew that was one big sale for me! Graham, our area manager (I met him a week ago in his pressed suit and blackberry, eugh) still rang up to complain because we weren't doing enough HERO (i.e we weren't selling enough extra guarantees). We were rammed with people at the time and no one wants to buy anything extra at this point in time. They don't usually, let alone in a recession! Sigh. We had to use our discount in order to sell some.

We worked an extra half an hour until the shop was dead once again. We then left. None of us had had time to have a lunch break so me and Kelv were starving. So Kelv treated me to a McDonalds on the way home but I owe him a Costa coffee. Fair enough!
10 until 5:30 tomorrow...GROAN. I should stop complaining but meh. I blame the hormones and constantly feeling tired.
