re: #497 Dark_Falcon

Don’t I know. Back in 2004 I once had to work 11 days running during December and one week of that month I had no days off at all. I worked an average of 52 hours a week that month and utterly crashed once it was over. I spend the majority of New Year’s Day asleep.

Yo know how at some jobs, you find that one thing, that one task, that no matter what you do, there is no way to make that task anything but unpleasant?

Well, that happen two times a week for me, it’s called closing. Two nights a week, I work closing, and it’s the furniture departments task to pull in any donations still left in the back, pull in the “donate” signs around the parking lot, sweep to WHOLE store and vacuum the rugs near the front door.

The bitchiest part is the cleaning up outside. You always have some large pieces that someone dropped off late, and you’re hauling a sofa or something big like that around all by yourself.
