Work = good, driving = EVIL
Nov. 7th, 2005 08:50 pm'Arcessitor' updated - 4001 words, with some small edits to the first part, so reread if you want but not if you don't. Only one part is a hint, and it's something you'll pick up on anyway. This next part follows on immediately from it without pause, so maybe remind yourself of the last sentence or so?Rainbow Number 7
So today was my first day working at WH Smiths, which was good. I was on the tills most of the day after my induction, which consisted of paperwork and two videos, one of which was 'sell to underage kids and you get prosecuted' and the other one was 'steal from us and you and your family are going DOWN'. It was kinda funny. Anyways, I had fun.
Except for the getting there and back. It was HELL. There are roadworks down Amersham Hill going into Wycombe which made me late even though I set off in good time, and then I had real trouble parking (as in both finding a space and then parking in it.) I was ten minutes late on my first day (but they were nice about it.) Then in the evening coming back, turns out I needed to have taken the ticket with me but had left it in the car on the NINTH FLOOR, went to get it, forgot the money I had but it wasn't enough anyway, tried my debit card but it wouldn't take it, so I had to go back to the bank to take £10 out to get out of the fricking car park. Then the car kept stalling on hills and stuff. I nearly had a fit. So I was home later than I should have been and ended up not going to that presentation on human body language etc I was going to because I was so tired -_- ...zzz
