Bad days

I have had a dreadful day. It started when my supervisor didn't turn up for work. It's his job to open the store, and as the only contactable keyholder for today, we were kinda stuck. He eventually turned up at 10.30am, after a lot of running around by me and Joan, and ringing of various people to try and contact him and/or get some keys. The manager got involved, and was on his way. Aaron, the supervisor didn't stay long. He drove up, handed Joan the keys, mummbled something about hospital and drove off again, giving no real explaination as to why he was one and a half hours late, and not staying. we eventually got the shop open and running, but because we were so late, the cashin up from the night before hadn't been done, so we were short of change for most of the morning. The Boss turned up to see what was happening at about 11am, not a happy bunny, because he was supposed to be having a day out with his family in North Wales. He had to stay all day because Aaron had gone off. As well as that, it has been horrendously busy all day what with people getting beer and food for the football, people getting barbecue stuff because of the weather, and lots of just general shoppers because the Kwik Save down the road is shut for refurbishment. I was late out too. I hope to God I never have a day like that again, but I don't suppose it will be as bad as the day Aaron is going to have when the Boss gets hold of him! I wouldn't be surprised if he was jobless by tomorrow unless he can come up with a really good excuse...

Things to be grateful for:

1. The fact it wasn't raining when we were sat outside the co op for one and a half hours.
2. My dad picking me up from work
3. fruit cocktail trifles.
