thoughts no. 001

i want to be boring and write about my boring life here. i dont want to clutter my tumblr with posts like these. i dont think my life is particularly eventful, though i feel compelled to share things about it as if it were

here, this is my boring work life:

  • my alarm goes off at 8:45 am every work day. i may sleep in past that, but it always goes off at that time. i get up, get ready, (hopefully) get everything i need, and leave
  • i start my shift at 11. i take a 15 minute break at 1, and i eat lunch at 3, give or take. sometimes these are earlier, sometimes theyre later
  • during my entire shift, i try not to lose my shit
  • if my friend is around, ill try to get him to come over to where i am at 5 or 6 pm. thats when our stores are the least busy
  • i leave around 6:30-7
  • rinse and repeat.
a terribly boring way to live. its one of the only things that can keep me from falling apart, though. i hate monotony yet i need it to live. at some point, the days start to blur into one another. i can only tell them apart by the little things, my register earned $726 in cash payments one day, how it earned $84 another, how i have to deal with technologically paranoid individuals who want me to "have a job" despite, well, having one, how i have to deal with people calling me weird pet names (seriously, i had a Very Grown man call me princess the other day. im not that young looking.), and far more that im sure i could think of if i was less tired. if it wasnt so common, im sure telling people where the card reader is would end up on the list of weird touches to my day. alas. everyone walks by the card reader and then acts bewildered when they have to pay with a card. have you considered using the giant self-checkout that you also didnt notice? its card only.
