The BIGGEST thing I miss from doing retail/customer service was not having to take your work home, even if you work hard, long hours, everything ends when you go home.

Everyone in the office takes their blackberrys every-freakin-where. It's insane. People are checking email at 1 in the morning. It's just sick. Maybe that's Silicon Valley mentality. I never want to own a BB. Never.

Oh, well, I guess you got me there. Still, I had to work 2 long shifts this week again and I've had enough notebooks, bookbags, pencils, highlighters, (and a thousand other things) to last me forever.

These people are pouring into the store, and many of them have this gigantic long list of things they need to get their kids for school...and guess what? I practically have to tell them where EVERYTHING ON THEIR LIST is, and take them their holding their hands. You wouldn't believe how many retards don't know what a "3-ring binder" is.

Plus, the school supplies area every day looks like it's had missiles launched at it. I spend hours straightening it, and the next day...POOF! It's chaos again.

Blackberrys make good pie, but that's about it.

(Sorry...my hick side is showing).
