rough time

sounds like a good day @Sans911
will chat more when you come back xox

Back now @outlander

Ok @Sans911

Whats your day looking like tomorrow?

Just my volunteer shift at the op shop tommorow @outlander

Depends @outlander. Sometimes the op shop can be really busy with either lots of donations or people. I generally don't sit around much. The last couple of weeks have been easy days. I'm working with the manager tomorrow. She's very nice. I've been learning to do the cash register and closing the shop as eventually that's what I'll be doing.

How's you tonight?

Your brave! You woudnt catch me near the cash register 😮 but sorting etc sounds ok. @Sans911

Im ok trying to wind down after quite abit of stress today esp with finances and studies. Still really jittery though so doing abit of crochet with a cup of tea.
Your welcome to join me if you like....?

The cash register is quite easy really. Everything is there in buttons, and it tells you how much change to give. Before I was a nurse I worked in retail, so it was like getting back on a bicycle.

Sorting is OK sometimes, but we often have to throw a lot of things away or for rags. Lots of donations aren't suitable for resale. Many people are either ignorant of what's suitable or just to lazy to throw stuff in the bin.

Crochet with a cup of tea sounds good @outlander 💜 💜

At least the machine tell you how much to give. Working in the canteens are hard cause you have think on the spot. Im ok at maths unless its pressurised like that situation.
Retail is good experience in many areas though. Its good for teens and people getting into the workforce. Did you learn lots of people skills in retail?

Hmm yes ive seen some things at my local op shops in the bins. Makes me wonder what people thinks acceptable. If i wouldnt wear it or give it to someone i know to wear it goes in the bin or i use them for rags myself.
@Sans911

My people skills came from retail before I was a nurse, but definitely learnt much, much more in my nursing positions.

I always wash clothes and fold them before giving to op shop and like you, I throw stuff away if it's not OK, or use as rags
