Monday, Monday

I'm being replaced. I knew it would happen, but to see it happen right in front of me, it kind of stings a little. I had to work at the store yesterday. I, of course, filled flip flops, fixing the displays to get more out on the floor and less in the backroom (isn't that the goal of retail, anyway?), filled sunglasses, yadda, yadda, yadda. There is not another person who does this chore, and if they do, the way they do it pisses me off and I just fix the mistakes later anyway. Whatever. Dee had put out some of the new collection in baby girl. And she had this new girl do the mannequin for it. I was in the backroom getting a ladder and I asked this girl if she was learning how to do mannequins, and she said yes. I said, so I'm being replaced. She apologized, Dee looked back at me and just did her sneaky little smile. Since I can't be there for the floorset next week, the mannequins are going to look like shit, that area of the backroom is going to be trashed, and I'm going to walk in on Tuesday morning completely disgusted with them. So what else is new, they can't even keep a section clean for two days! I got my new schedule with my new availability and surprisingly, Dee didn't try to screw me over. It might be because it is a floor set week. But hey, if she's cool with four days, then I'm cool with the hours she gives me. I guess it will all work itself out.

I go downtown today to fill out the one hundred tax forms for my new job. It would only be ninety-nine, but I still have to pay Kwame. Then I think I have to go shopping for dressy clothes. :-/ Maybe I can put it off until later in the week. Hahaha.

For fun, this is my ranking, give or take:
Det, Phil, Col, Bost, LA, Edm, Ott (but I soooooo HATE their goalie), Van, Mon, TO, Cal, Phx, NJ, SJ, Buff, NYR, Min, Dal, Pitts, Chic, StL, Ana, NYI, Car, Wash, Nash, CBJ, TB, FL, Atl.
Before the lockout, you would have seen Boston, Colorado, and Edmonton as my top three teams; Det would have come in at four.
