Cosmetic Night/The Bay Galla yesterday and my mom volunteered me to go help out (but my mom's taking a break from work so she wasn't there :[)... When I got to her counter, the Shisheido head manager person lady from Toronto was bitching at the Shisheido people about all sorts of stuff. I excused myself and got introduced to the "boss lady" (I forgot her name again) and yeah, she's scary. She sent me to go help out another lady, Joyce, at the front door. I think I did a crap job helping out though... anyways, after some ticket ripping and paper passing, I got sent to the centre stage where they were passing out gift baskets for customers who bought over $100. The nice girl Michelle and the semi-nice girl Jennifer (who once worked at the same counter with my mom) were there and only Michelle explained to me what was going on. I sorta became security person who watched for any reaching hands that tried to steal 'em baskets. Then we realized that I wasn't really needed there either so they sent me to work with a 9 year old kid at the beverages table. I was sooo surprised to see her there, firstly because she was only a kid and second she was pretty smart. But she did silly child things like pretend her grandma was calling on her cellphone (which was her aunt's) and talked in Italian. And then she'd tell me what she was talking about on her phone. The rest of my night I worked with the girl, Miranda (who wanted me to call her Mir and insisted that she call me Candy)... it was surprisingly hectic at the drinks table. The people came in giant WAVES and they would all just stand there and demand for drinks. Some would even walk up behind us and steal it from us, without asking. Then Mir would go and yell at them.. >_> But there was a good hour or so in between it all when Mir was sent somewhere else and I had to work alone. It was crazyy.. the people were crazy.. they were GREEDY FOR DRINKS. Goodness, take ONE bottle not TWO OR THREE for yourself. We made great big messes of water everwhere, ripped mad paper to dry the drinks, our hands were pruney by the end of the day and oh... I didn't get to say goodbye to her. My mom's fellow worker hurried me to leave as soon as they were done because she told me not to hang around after to clean up lol. Anyways, it was nice but I only got to take a bite out of one cream puff throughout the whole night. I wanted something from the fruit lady at least... but she and her plate disappeared as soon as I saw her.. ughh...
Anyways, the summer heat's back... it's hot.
