Slept late...

and it was wonderful. Sorry I didn't write anything yesterday, but that's what happens when you go home and pass out from exhaustion. Eight hours shouldn't be exhausting, but it was. Although it might have something to do with the fact that I was cleaning and sending out strollers all morning. This means I was continuously bending over for about 3 hours. It didn't help that I was continuously getting pissed at the one full-timer who was supposed to be helping. He stood around talking while the IP (international program) and I had to work harder to get the strollers unstacked, cleaned and lined up (and everyone wanted a stroller - and most didn't need one!!) However, Victor (the IP from Brazil) got me to calm down right before I did something rash (like strangle the other guy) and then proceeded to push several strollers at him (aiming to hit...CONTACT!). I was then informed that it was wonderful to be able to speak Portuguese, to which I replied I wish I did. I was then taught a basic phrase (I won't remember it but it's the principle of the thing) which made me smile, and strollers a bit more bearable.
So while exhausting, yesterday was defiantly fun in it's own special way.


Tonight is the LATE (9:45pm-3:45am) shift. Wish me luck!!
