Does he have any friends that might be able to visit and make a habit of spending some time with him off and on? That or he needs a good aid that can get to playing card games or something with him... something to distract him and make him chill out for a bit, and help the rest of you resist committing yourselves to an asylum.

Plus I banged my shin when I tripped over a bun pallet some idiot left sitting too far out in the doorway between the kitchen area and tbe storeroom. F***ers. Break meal didn't sit well either.

Gosh, Duckie, well that sounds like a great day. Hope things are better and the bruises aren't too big.

Stomach issues at work are so fun... I've learned to keep some chewable Pepto in my purse.



Glad to be on the other side of the nonsense I had, though now it's that fun part where you'll still clogged up with the leftover crud for a while. Back to work... tired, but didn't make me ill this time, and luckily being an early weekday shift literally everyone left me alone (like I'd hoped), both customers and co-workers, just to do my thing quietly working on hunting out a ton of the clearance stuff in the bras and undies department; something my manager mentioned on Monday but I never got to after going home after just two hours. Hope tomorrow I can just pick up where I left off and continue not to be bothered much.

Somehow I have a feeling having a post-sickness cough helps customers choose to be a bit more independent in their shopping unless they truly need the assistance with something. lol If it discourages those who mostly just want their hand unnecessarily held, figuratively speaking, fine by me.
