I've Never Felt So Torn

This last week has been an absolute nightmare. Firstly I have to stay over at work because no one turns up for the nightshift. Yes, at least I wasn't on my own but my god it was irritating to the very nerves of my teeth that I was still in work. On a day that I had originally been called in for to cover 4 hours for one other colleauge who was off sick. That part I didn't mind but, having to do 6pm -6am with little to no notice was absolute bollocks. I don't unually swear in my blogs but, I had been awake since about 10am and stayed up until 6am the next. To top it off I got woke up no more than three hours later by a police officer who needed to give me the contact details of the guy who crashed into me a couple of months ago. I found out the other day that who should of took me off thought that she was on holiday. Still not happy. Our manager is off at the moment so nothing can be done about it properly, it really doesn't help that this was technically his fault. At least I have had an apology from her.

As I mentioned in my last post, work is just as stressful as it used to be. We had two drive offs yesterday and narrowly avoided the third. The first had false plates and the second we are told could have been an accident (which I don't believe). The third which we avoided just was a middle aged couple that again thought that they had paid. My friend Jo called them over the tannoy to let them know they haven't just before the drove off. They came in the store. It just annoys me that they didn't have the decency to come in and check when they were clearly unsure. When they came in the store the lady wasn't too happy. We knew we couldn't have taken any money from them otherwise it wouldn't be on our screens! Then all we could say was, "Well, if we have charged you twice or you have any problems just come back in the store and we will sort it out for you." I don't think they will come back. Hopefully they will still come back and shop but, I don't think they will be back for the above reason.. which is good :)

My 'New' Job

So, I've finally settled back into my new job. Its just as stressful as I remember when it was Esso, in terms of drive offs and the occasional persons coming inside after filling up their car with fuel before realising that they have no means to pay. Some are genuine but, some are gits - it has to be said. There's a lot of similarities I've noticed. Like having our managers phone number right next to our telephone by the window, just incase. Im probably sounding a little negative right now but, I am enjoying working for ASDA.

I am thinking about finally sorting out UCAS stuff for next year and yes, I still have my eye on one of those iPads. I have decided that I will treat myself to one with a larger hard drive later in the year because of how expensive they are. If I remember right, an iPad mini 3 with 128GB is about £475 at the moment... So very expensive!  As it's my day off today, I'm in the middle of sorting out my room. I'm hoping to get some recording done on Garageband today, even if it's only a little.

Work and Shopping.

Its nice to finally be back working in my normal location, Ilkeston. With the ASDA Petrol Station now officially open (and has been since the 29th July) I can finally get on with most other things in my life. I feel a lot more comfortable now I'm back working where I am though, still not fully as I have still got to get used to all of my new tasks, mostly being the work I have to do on the guns. I can remember most of the functions within the programs, just not quite all of them just yet. Plus, it doesn't even let me do everything I need to be able to which of course is very useful.

I've been spending a bit of money lately, mostly to treat myself after last weeks mad rush to fill the shop up with stock. I've ended up buying a new SuperDry gillet, a considerable amount of blu rays and my very first amiibo (I brought Ganon!). Ive been debating with myself whether or not to treat myself to an iPad. I've got along with my new phone so well that, I think I would probably get on with it a lot more than my tablet. I really am starting to gather quite the apple collection though!

ps. I want a track pad too!
