^BUMP ... so I guess I am just gonna be an agent for tomorrow.. I am not even really supposed to work, but I figure that I better work since the idea was mine :) I still might change my mind and go with the neo kung fu look with a robelike outfit. Customers are going to be confused as hell and I dont plan on doing any work tomorrow at all :p

I am really looking forward to shutting off the staples music that has been playing EVERY DAY for the past 3 years. Last week they felt like turning it up for no reason. One of the cashiers like to turn her phone system to the max and listen to it all day :( My manager is going to find the secret control box in the back and shut that crap off, and let us play whatever matrix inspired music we want :p

Staples != hot chicks.
At my staples, the girls that work in the evenings are hot hot hot. Then again, this town seems to have more than its average of hot women, which is going to make it hard to go back to Toledo.

desert day?

Thrusday is just the day that staples provides desserts for this event. They are going to have like green mint ice cream, grasshopper pie, black cake with green icing etc...

So you mean dessert and not desert :) Gotcha, just making sure.. :)

lol, unless they're going for a Dune theme.

I worked 10-6. and it went suprisingly well. The store was decked out in green and black, and the break room played the trilogy all day. They brought in a crap load of ice cream and we all basically sat around all day, and did no work. We even shot a short video on how to sell printers in the matrix. Myself and my two managers would try and sell a printer to neo (josh) and he flipped us off, so the agents roughed him up for not buying anything :p I have some pictures but I gotta to upload them to pics.bbzzdd, overall it could have been a lot worse, but my managers and co-workers came through. Pics will be right up.

If this is the same Josh that I'm thinking of (worked at 154 Hyannis) then he deserved to be rushed :)

I'm glad you took pics. My lazy bum of a friend lives 5 minutes from your store but didn't feel like going down to take pics.

Bring on the pics!
