Another Day, Another... Lack of Anything Special.

One thing I'm going to have to get the hang of making my post titles relevant to what I have to say. Then again, that implies knowing what I'm going to say beforehand! :) (I suppose I could title them after I write them...)
Anyway! Today was kind of average, aside from the ridiculous weather we've been getting lately. It's been blowing snow off and on (I know, it's April. It's been kind of stupid.) and then melting. Then sitting at a coldish temperature overnight, rinse, and repeat.
So, as it was cold this morning, I took some extra time after my alarm woke me up to just sit there, half covered by my blanket, trying to ease myself into the day. Thank goodness I woke up 15 minutes earlier than the typical half-hour before my shift starts, otherwise I'd have been very late! When I did finally get up, I (obviously) got dresses in my work uniform and when I put my left sock on, a huge hole broke in the heel. I then went to work for 6 hours.
I think this is the time at which I will add what I'd like to say. To everyone who shops at a grocery store (in other words, everyone in the world), please don't get angry with your typical part-time clerk if we don't carry a product you like. There is absolutely nothing I can do about this. I point this out because I'd imagine it works the same way in all grocery stores. The power to bring in new products belongs to the managers/company. Getting angry about it doesn't get you your product, and it has the potential to ruin this clerk's day. I think I'll tack on that it's the same way with the arrangement of the store.
Aside from a little issue with that, there were a couple unusual things today. First, there were a lot of clerks in for a while. I asked around about why and didn't get a straight answer, but it appears that some of the higher-ups from the company were coming in for some reason and the managers wanted the stock out quickly and the store looking nice. The second was that I got to do something new, though not particularly exciting. I was assigned the task of cleaning the old, dried milk that gathers on the shelving and in collector plates underneath. It's not a very enjoyable task. But it does kill that last bit of time on your shift rather quickly!
Nothing really happened aside from the typical schoolwork and chilling on the internet after work. So, I really have nothing more to talk about. So I'll end it here. :J
