Our furnace broke tuesday, ya know because being sick wasn't enough! So anyways to pay for that $700 repair (and the $340 dryer that broke the week before) Jeremy will be doing stock at either AE or aerie saturday mornings until we can get that paid off. Me picking up a weekend shift at aerie would have serously hurt my sanity level because i don't get to see my kids enough as it is right now, so Jeremy took one for the team and said he would work in the stock room. He will be in aerie's stockroom until the middle of Januray, and then after that i may have to see what i can arrange with AE because hopefully by then our full time stock peoson won't be coughing a lung and half on her deathbed!
In other news i'm still on the fence about aerie this week.....i LOVE it there, and i LOVE most the people, but i'm wondering if i'm too old for it (OMG did i JUST say that!!!). Serously though everyone i work with is in their early 20's.....and i'm getting way too close to 30 for my comfort level! Part of working with teens and 20somethings is that they act like teens and 20somethings......and i just don't know how much of it i am gonna be able to handle long term. I forgot that not everyone goes to their job, does their job to the best of their ability and then went home.......NOPE not like that inthe retail world, people play favorites, they listen and don't listen, and then there comes the whole working with ALL girls......girls will be girls and let me tell you i'm waiting for the day it gets UGLY! We also have a high turn around and it's frustrating to see the same people you trained last week quit in a month because they don't like it!!! So it will be interesting to see where i find a nitch within the AE company as a whole.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MILES!!!! I'm off to find a bag to put his present in.....because i'm all out of boy wrapping paper!
