Just hanging out while the rest of the family are watching the first Kings game of the season. Or more like yelling at the TV screen for allowing the Blackhawks to score 3 times in the first period. Meanwhile I am trying to reason my argument as to the fact that there hasn't been any real play since we've been locked out for so long. So while my opinion is being tossed in the trash as unreasonable I am just sitting here chilling and craving greasy tacos from Taco Bell.
It's Saturday and I have to work at 17:30 this afternoon, I am sure that I am going to hear about the end result of this game.
On another note if I had knitting needles I would be trying to teach myself, which would be a great afternoon activity. A friend of mine sent home a skein of yarn for me.
Last night I was thinking how about a month ago everyone was going nuts trying to tie up loose ends of their Christmas shopping. The park just got extremely busy about this time. Now the park is slower with nuttier guests hanging around it. Literally. But with it being Martin Luther weekend, the NAMM convention going on and the Tinkerbell Half Marathon happening tomorrow I am willing to be we pick up in business this weekend without the coverage we'll need because its off-peak season. So I guess we'll see what the outcome will be.

Can't say I'm fine Tonight
I know it's been a while but it's been one of those nights when I just want to scream.
I got into it with a fellow lead over the fact that she let her store go to crap because she thinks she can. You know at Disneyland we're just the little guys, the peons you might say. And there's times when we have to do more than our share of the work because a runner didn't do theirs, but a lead who makes it clear that she won't run in areas, she won't close carts, she won't process merchandise to the floor should not even be put into this position to begin with. There are many a nights when I stay later making sure the stores are ready for business in the morning, even if that means I have to do OT because of it. Because that's what's expected of me. But when you have a fellow lead who gripes about every little darn thing and then gets mad when help is coming there is a problem.
Also at the end of the evening I usually have a list of some sort that a manager might give to me of items that need to get looked into. I had this list and she got irked because I wouldn't let her know what was on it. And she pretty much accused me of letting my helper runner know what was on this list, which I didn't. No one knows what was on it besides me and God. When Gloria my helper came down I had her work on the lollipop tree which she was happy to do. Also my pain-in-the-arse runner told me she was leaving because I asked someone to come down and help. Seriously?!!! Sometimes I really have to wonder about people. Anyway she did leave for about 20 minutes then came back. Tossed her radio on the table and was pretty irksome the rest of the night.
And this is someone older than me who was bragging about being more mature just a mere 7 hours before? Hmmm.
Of course I did fall into the trap of venting when I had no idea that she had walked back into the store. I'm sure I will be held
accountable for that.
