This weekend I did a whole bunch of nothing. I did clean the house mostly due to the fact my family is coming in on Wednesday. Oh, an update on that...the part of my family (the brother and two teenage girls) actually cancelled. Which, I find pretty irresponsible. But, I really don't care. Now I don't have to entertain two teenage girls wearing next to nothing.

Drew started his job at the bike store last week. He seems to really enjoy it. I couldn't imagine going back to working retail. But, I think this situation is a little different because the management is super cool and this seems to be something Drew is extremely interested in. Lets see...now I want to make a list of all my retail jobs... First was Office Max, where I worked for 4 disfuctional years. On my first day there, the manager didn't know I was scheduled to work 8 hours and they refused to give me a lunch break. Luckily my friends Sam and Aaron brought me some food. Then I worked at an Office Supply store in Marietta. I'm not really sure why I stuck with the Office supply retail world. The only thing I remember about working there is their lack of technology and a man telling me if I stayed in Marietta for the full 4 years of college, I would greatly increase my chances of getting lung cancer. It honestly scared me. Once I moved to Dayton, I worked at Target a couple days a week stocking from 4am to 8am. Then, that summer I was employed by Pier 1 Imports. You would think working at Pier One would be easy, wouldn't ya? No, no, no my friend. Somehow, they suckered me into unloading a truck 3 days a week. I would go in at 6am and work generally till 2pm. The problem was, there was NO loading dock. And, I don't know if you have been in Pier One lately, but they have some big freaking furniture. Like 500 lb. armoires. Once we unloaded the truck, it's not like you can just stick it inside. You put it outside near the dumpster and unwrap the furniture. And, you better believe those things were tied up, bubble wrapped and generally horrible to open. Did I mention this was during the summer in Ohio? And, there was no shade? Once you were done getting disgustingly dirty, if your shift wasn't over, you would have to change and then work inside the store. I am sure the customers thought I was some kind of heathen.

So there's my retail world resume. I don't think I will be going back anytime soon unless I absolutely have to.
