So my PSP battery thing that I ordered the other day got here yesterday (I think? Maybe the day before that). It worked totally fine for the first hour, but now it randomly turns itself on and off. So I reset my trusty little handheld in an attempt to solve the issue. Haven't tried using the battery again yet, because I'm afraid it'll explode for some stupid reason. And I would really prefer for my only working portable game system to NOT burst in to flames.
Apparently a video of Miley Cyrus smoking salvia found it's way on to the internet. All I have to say on that subject is GO HANNAH MONTANNA GO. Seriously, she's my new role model. Next time someone asks me who I look up to, I'm going to say Miley Cyrus. Who knew Disney's little corporate whore would actually make me proud. SMOKE IT UP BOB MILEY.
Yesterday, Cody and I were supposed to hang out, but he dipped out on me in favor of John and Michael. Of course, nobody mentioned shit to me, so I had no idea what was going on until I was already asleep (I don't hold it against them, considering I'M the one who passed out :p). Apparently Cody called me at like 9:45ish (presumably to hang out) but I didn't answer cuz I was catching some serious Z's (I have a sinus infection, let me sleep it off guys). And apparently John called me at like 11:45ish (presumably to talk about random shit for an hour). Once again, not really important, but worth mentioning I suppose.
So I had orientation for TJMaxx yesterday (apparently they abbreviate it TJX). In my head, orientation was a group of 7 or 8 people, sitting in a small classroom type setting, watching training videos and filling out paperwork. All I have to say is it was nothing like that. AT ALL. I was supposed to be there at 1:00, but my Manager (1 of many) wasn't even ready for me until like 1:20. So I sat around for 20 minutes just wasting time (paid time might I add, so I can't really complain). While I was sitting at the front of the store, watching customers browse purses (so exciting, I know) I experienced an act of God. I was staring at this big display thingy, that was basically a 3-tier table thing, stacked with handbags, when suddenly this pink one decides to make a break for the door. It goes flying off the shelf (by itself) and lands like 10 feet away. Unfortunately, nobody else saw it, so I picked it up and set it back on the shelf, half expecting it to swan-dive off again. It didn't.
Anyway, so finally my manager comes and gets me, and I go back to his office and fill out a shitton of paperwork (employment forms, tax forms, form forms, the usual signing-your-life-away stuff). And after that, he walked me around the store. And by "walked me around the store", I mean he took me into a creepy janitor's closet and locked the door behind us. Needless to say, I was more than a bit uncomfortable about this. Closed spaces + creepy manager + nobody to hear me scream + cleaning chemicals = Me having a mini seizure in a supply closet. But seriously though, he just showed me where the "Big Book of Cleaning Supplies Information" was. And then he made me sign a waiver saying that he showed me where it was so that I couldn't claim he didn't later.
Then he took me to the break room, plopped me down in a chair, and set out 10 brainwashing videos for me to watch. Then he left. I seriously sat in there for like 3 hours, texting people and half-watching the training videos (only one of which actually told me ANYTHING about what I would be doing). So yeah, I learned next-to-nothing. The funny thing is, before I even finished watching them, my manger LEFT. Just flat out clocked-out, and left. So I waited 5 minutes before doing the same. Overall, I'd say it was a VERY productive day. Didn't even get my schedule. All I know is that I'm supposed to be in for work at 7 on Monday. I can tell I'm going to like this job.
So yeah, that's what's up in my life right now. Pretty boring huh?
