Yesterday I got a job the local branch of a national retail store. Today, I went in to fill out the paperwork. After filling it out, they asked if I wanted to start immediately. I had nothing better to do, so I said yes. Then they asked if I wanted to work tomorrow, Saturday, and Sunday. Not thinking, I again said yes. Then I remembered the Patriots don't play on Monday every night (although they should). I'll end up missing their game as well as the Bills game (I'm still a Bledsoe fan after all). The only complete game I'll see (if I'm not asleep by that point) will be the Steelers|Oakland match. I hope the Steelers lose.
Anyway, even thought starting a new job is a little nerve-racking, meeting the people is always fun. I happen to be an on call support staffer, meaning I unload freight from the trucks and move it onto the floor for sales associates to put away. I met one guy today who was showing me around the store and he said "if you go this way, you can look at all the young girls working cosmetics". I smiled and nodded. I'd already noticed that, as well as the fact that most of them weren't young. Oh well.
