| Hee! Today at my work, my boss Mary asked me to watch this customer (apparently she is a known thief), so I spent forty five minutes tailing her through the store. I followed her through home decorating, nursing, gardening, photography, antiques and collectibles, architecture, the art table, the sex section, the bargain table, and finally downstairs. It was sort of fun. Dimetri was sent up to help me and we had a whole made up conversation about how this particular section of the store was a mess and needed extra attention (it sounded actually very realistic, because Dimetri is nice but sort of weird, so for most of it, I actually thought he was serious when he said that it was a mess. It looked good to me, but maybe my standards are low?). Mwahaha, we're so clever. Since I was watching her, I actually went and organized all of those sections (there was no one in the store) so when closing time came around, I was done with my entire section! So all I had to do was move those big ass carts around... which sucked, but at least we got out at 11:30 and not midnight.
Oh, and apparently someone came up to our cashwrap, snagged a box of Godiva chocolates, and either ate all of the candy in the box, or dumped it in pockets or something, then wrapped the box back up nice and put it back. Man, Mary was pissed; whomever it was absconded with 50.00 worth of chocolates (yeah, overpriced but -very- good chocolate), she felt the thief was laughing at us. But whatever, I mean, I was praised for my vigilance (this lady apparently likes to order expensive books, then when they arrive, she never picks them up, but they mysteriously disappear. Then she'll come back weeks later with the book without a receipt and want a refund. Or she'll just walk out with books in her jacket). So yeah, what with the guy who was masturbating in the Bible section on Sunday, its been exciting times at Barnes and Noble.
Tomorrow is my day off, my plan is not do anything (except pay my phone bill)
