My first day back at work after my vacation was today, and it sucked. Work in general sucks. I don't understand why one of you won't keep me in the manner to which I think I should be accustomed, expecting nothing in return but the occasional thank you note. Come to think of it, you all suck. Selfish bastards, keeping your money for yourselves. That's the problem with Republicans. Keeping their money away from people like me who want to do nothing in return.
I'm kidding. Mostly.
Work wasn't too bad, but I was disappointed to see that the major project that was supposed to happen when I was gone has not happened. So I'll get to help with it. Bleh. It's not a fun project, because if it was, I'd be all about it. It's a crappy moving heavy things around project, directed by people with very little design sense.
I'm not the Queen of Retail, but I can tell you when a product comes in whether it will sell or not with pretty good accuracy. I can also tell you that two gold sweatshirts next to each other does not a balanced display make. (And that a casual button-down shirt that costs $70 will never sell until it hits the 50% off rack, but that's a post for another day.)
In summary, I'm not lazy and I wouldn't mind rearranging the store if it was going to look better. But I don't think it will. That's why I wish it was done while I was gone.
And as a bonus, I will tell you that white kids clothes are really cute, but they won't sell to anyone who has kids. They're white. On kids. White. On kids.
