The Holy Grail of retail work.

Good luck.


Damn right! Get bonuses for sales, but don't get in shit for not making sales which is pretty good!

But cheers! Hopefully the second interview goes well, I'd really like to get this job :D

Get monthly bonuses starting at £200 depending on Sales, so I guess that'd be commission. But also don't get penalized if I didn't make enough sales.

finally cashed in my change tin at one of those machines. it's been getting change thrown in it since about 2012ish, but figured it wouldn't be too much.

I now have 43 quid in actual money. Booyah.

I FINALLY SOLD THE GUITAR FOR THE ASKING PRICE :D All went back into savings, replenishing what was spent of it in Edinburgh.

Well, I did buy a Lego X-Wing. Yolo.

Got my holiday form back today with "see maggi!" Written on it, maggi is my manager so was a bit worried. Turned out she just wanted me to move a couple of days about which was fine, then got all my holidays confirmed including the week of bloodstock, so pretty happy. Probably the only time I've booked my full years holiday entitlement and got it all.

What a great evening. Kataklysm putting on a great show, then Danger Zone, then fried chicken.

Perhaps I didn't set my standards high...

The only downside apart from how messy it looks when you're walking down the street nomming greasy chicken is it's kind of gone against my 'diet'. Oh well!

Tuesday is approaching fast! :D This, and a classic mini I once had are the only cars I've been stupidly excited about having in my life.

Oh, and tomorrow is a small step in the right direction to sorting out a problem Dad and I live with everyday. :)
