    Text - Got a second free starbucks drink. This one was a pumpkin pie one that wasn't even on the menu. I like this barista man. Gave dozens of children stickers. Several of them squealed when they got them. This is the best part of my job. -Sold an old man $200 of furniture and got him to sign up for a Target credit card. Before he finished the last step, he turned and walked away with his cart without a word. He still hadn't paid. I called him back and he apologized, saying "sorry, sometimes my

    Text - -Met a woman referred to only as The Cat Lady. She asked if I wanted her to buy me a keychain from Ross. I told her I had no keys. She nodded solemnly and walked away, whispering their exact location inside Ross, just in case. Got called into the HR Head's office at the end of my shift. I was expecting to be yelled at for some reason. She and another lead showered me in compliments for ten minutes straight, saying a lot of managers had been saying great things about me all day. Not what I

    Text - kimpossibooty Day Three -Two children came through the line. They were chanting to their mom through heavy streams of tears. "WE WANT STICKERS MOMMY. There were no stickers at any of the registers. They continued crying. I failed my people. An old woman bought five bottles of wine and a large bottle of vodka.

    Text - kimpossibooty Day Four: -The store is having a 10% off your entire purchase sale. I have a coupon to scan if anyone asks for it. I scan it if people don't ask for it if they're nice to me. I don't scan it if they're rude. Power is a new sensation. Power is a good sensation - Because of the sale, we have been flooded with guests itching for a bargain. When I need to go on my break, the manager has to stand in front of the line and tell people to go somewhere else. As the line died down, I

It is too early for these images. -A small girl helped me put her parents bags into their cart. Every time I hand her a bag, she digs through it, announcing which things are hers and which are her parents, and putting her parents' items in the cart without the bag. They did not earn the bag and she treats them accordingly. -A group of old people came on a fi
