I see your point.

When I was younger, if I had an inset day and my mam was working, i'd have to go along to my nanas for the day. Then when I got a bit older, I was allowed to stay at home by myself, and go along to my nanas for my dinner. Now I find myself alone at home most weekends, and I get along just fine (as long as there's food in the cupboards)  ;)

You could turn into a situation comedy.


It's a definate possibility. As well as the wierdos we get in the shop, the staff could make for some interesting television. The main character would be a young male who hates customers, hates his hours and basically hates his job but needs the money. No idea who that'd be based on, though  ::)

Yeah, but there isn't an annoying gay works at our shop. Let's see, we have:

A 2 faced bitch of a boss
The boss's little 'sidekick' - doesn't do much
One who stands around doing nothing but gets away with it because everyone's frightened to tell her
An enthusiastic but loud worker who sometimes disappears without telling you where the hell she's going
A good honest worker who keeps themselves to themself, but gets annoyed easily by customers
A big, scary news manager who you don't wanna be on the wrong side of
A party animal who has sometimes come to work with a bad hangover
the young blonde who isn't too bright
The reliable friendly worker who's great to work with and minds her own business

A bit of an odd mix, but these are the folks I work with on an almost-daily basis

Is there a chance to work at other branches?

Yeah. One time, a branch near ours was desperately short-staffed, so after working a 5 hour shift at my shop, I had to take a taxi straight there at the end of my shift and do another 4 1/2 hours at their shop. I was knackered by the end of the night  :P

10 hours is the longest shift i've done. It was hard...

(1pm-11pm on a Saturday of all days). In fact, it was just after one of the colleagues was suspended, so I had to work her evening shifts for about 6 weeks  :(
