I can’t believe that I’m up this early on sunday of all days.
I know....ten thirty isn’t that early, but when you work late the night before and only get into bed at like one thirty and actually fall asleep at around two thirty-three....ten is pretty early.
I awoke to the puppy jumping on my bed and licking my face until I got up. I tried to resist but she is one persistent dog. So I get up and go see my mum who is busy in the kitchen. And we do the usual chit chat.....have breakfast and now, here I am.
I do have a few things I need to do today, unfortunately it’s all things like laundry and cleaning, but it has to be done so....
Yesterday was so weird working at a different store. I worked at the “Granola Gap”. This Gap is near where all the “hippies” live. I put quotes around hippie cause really all they are is pot smoking dirty kids who like wearing hemp jewellery and beads....
So this Gap has a large amount of the hippies (granola’s). I don’t think I could stand working there full time. All them employees are really weird and frankly, a little smelly. They were either uber gay (like most male gap employees) or really dirty. And VERY Québécois.
I was working the back store and he stock boys were playing music. You should have hear this music. I was like techno whale sounds with voices saying stuff like “live for everyone” “life is just a game”....oh man, get me outta here. So I suffered with that for about three hours then, as there always is, there’s this “funny” guy./ You know that one. The guy who thinks he’s a real riot and talks really loud and feels it necessary to make comments on everything? Well, someone put on a U2 cd, and he thought it was necessary too sing along. But in french, translating all the words.
So “where the streets have no name” turned into: “ou les rues on pas do noms” and this went on for then ENTIRE album. Then when we listened to he cd AGAIN, he sang them all in english with his really heavy québécois accent “ where da treats hav no nam”.. HA ha ha this guy was a real riot....not.
Oh yes and then we had the pleasure of listening to Madonna. Which is fine with me, but this guy only had a single so there was like three songs on it and we listened to it no joke 6-7 times in a loop. And no one said anything. And when someone tried to change it, he threw a hissy fit and refused. So the music foe the evening consisted of
-Madonna single (x7)
-U2 (X3)
-Korn (x1)
-System of a down (x2)
All I could think about was finishing real fast and leaving early.
Which I did.
And to think I get to go there again this week...I’d better bring earplugs.
I don’t mind going to other stores to work, but it’s where to eat when I’m there. I hate eating with the people I’m training, I don;t really know them and usually don’t have much to say to them. I really prefer just eating alone, but I can’t really say “okay you go eat and I’m going to go somewhere else...see you in a n hour..” Well I could, but that would just be rude.
SO that was yesterday. On friday my mum and I went to the new Simon’s store in Laval. It’s freaking huge. It’s like 1.5 times bigger than the one downtown and they seem to have much more selection. I found a pair of jeans that could pass as Gap after I make a few alterations.....And we poked around the newly renovated mall for a while and then went out and got coffee and came back home. It was a real nice day with my mum.
And that’s my week-end I guess, nothing too exciting. And now I have to get busy on my laundry and cleaning.
Wheee!
