We had a trainee order our glasses and she kept on asking others all the freaking time. I have a complicated prescription due to childhood eye issues so my glasses are never are cheap.

Oh thats really really annoying :( Definitely go back!

I'm going to the optician tonight, the parking is cheaper from 5pm and I've managed to get a 5:20pm appointment. I've not been to this one before but my old one closed their branch up North and so only have London now (over 200 miles away).

The new one do free eye tests, whether you buy anything or not

In other words I have tesco coming this afternoon. Only 1 substitution and 0 unavailable items. Which is good because 2 items in my order are for my dad (father's day and his birthday are next month). The substitution is a pasta sauce which is acceptable.

That's good Beth that they do free eye tests.

Work is mental. Took me over 10 mins to park!
And even then had to park right over the other side of the car park D:
Not in the mood for this today

Fingers crossed you get no idiots today Beckie.

Afternoon everyone. Lots going on with you all!

I hope Boots can sort things out for you, Dawn.

Hope your eye test goes ok, Beth.

I hope work is manageable at least, Beckie.

Thanks Lindsay. I have had my tesco shopping order now. Vast majority are put away.

It's almost guaranteed there will be idiots XD
But no one has verbally abused me (yet)
Just the usual complaints about prices and general chaos!
Apparently i should have reported that guy yesterday because it counts as verbal abuse. We have an incident form for that.

Hope everyone is having a good day

Well done, Dawn.

Beckie, maybe I should let you borrow my t-shirt that says 'don't mess with me I will cry' then people might leave you alone!

That t shirt sounds amazing!

That t shirt does sound amazing!
I wonder if they'd let us change our uniform? XD

-Dont Mess with Us we will Cry- Ltd. Would be a good retail job name! Probably only way work will let you change the uniform is they change their name.

The brain fog has finally cleared! However I know if I get stuff done now, I'll sleep in and be in the same position tomorrow.

I did however go to a tile shop, and to my opticians appointment and also got some make up remover while I was out, and have cleaned the living room table.

Morning everyone

Morning Beckie :)

Morning! How are you?

I'm okay thank you, I've had a very lazy morning but I've just had a bath and cleaned the sink and vacuumed the living room.

How're you?

Doesn't sound lazy to me!

I'm tired! And at work again D:
But I'll be ok

I mean, there is no excuse for how messy my house is considering I've just had over a week off work. So seeing what I can power through today.

Hi everyone.

I have many, many cool t-shirts it's one of the things I'm known for. The t-shirt I'm wearing today has a little cereal bowl with letter cereal in it that says f*ck off.

I don't think a lot of people would want to choose housework to do on their time off, Beth. It's fine to do other things too and have some housework in between.

I hope work goes well, Beckie. When do you finish today?

Afternoon all. I haven't done much today. Just had a shower. Unfortunately my tshirt is not as interesting as Lindsay's today. Mine is a butterfly in various shades of blue and purple.

It's this one

Ooh thats nice Insig :)

I've managed to get a bit more done,
- bins taken out
- bedroom window ledge cleaned and windows cleaned
- Aldi (nothing exciting, cheese, bin bags and cat litter)
- Washed, dried and curled my hair.
- Washing up done
- 3 more things on Vinted, and 1 ready to post tonight (there's an inpost locker thing next the the pub where I'm doing the quiz tonight.

My t shirt is much more boring just a plain white t-shirt!

Having a chill day today and not doing much. Pain is a little better than yesterday but still being annoying. Most exciting part of day is my new V pillow arrived and it's helping me get comfier already, supporting my sore back/shoulders as I sit up.

Tomorrow I am going round to a friend's house to play board games.

I'm glad the pain is improving even slightly LR! Your new pillow sounds like magic :)

I don't have an exciting t shirt either! https://www.shein.co.uk/DAZY-Solid-C...-29507013.html

I did buy a jumper a few weeks ago that says "Too hot for trauma" which is a vibe!

I am working until 9pm today lindsay :(
Not been too bad so far though. Just hope it stays relatively calm!

I used a v pillow after my surgery. It was indeed magic!

Can't join in on the fun t shirt convo with my lovely whsmith polo shirt XD

I had a v pillow before but it had got all worn out and flat. Paid a bit more this new one and it's paying off! Pillow magic for the win!

I mean WHSmith could be the next guicci XD

Well done with all your tasks, Beth!

I'm glad you've found a way to ease your pain a bit, Jen. I hope you enjoy your board games tomorrow.

I bet someone would pay a lot of money for your WH Smith t-shirt, Beckie!

I still have my Blockbuster shirt. Maybe I should sell it!

Blockbuster ris old enough now that a staff shirt would probably count as a cool retro thing.

If someone was paying a lot of money for it, I would 100% 'lose' both of my shirts XD
I have been asked 4 times in the last 2 days whether I work there. While at work. In my uniform and lanyard....

Morning everyone!
Got a lovely lie in until 9:30am today!

Whereas I have been asked questions as if I work in marks and Spencer several times in past despite not being on any uniform (and never having worked on M&S)! You can't win with customers!

Afternoon all!

I am off out to my friends for board games shortly so just popping in!

Hi everyone.

Someone thought I worked in Sports Direct once because I was wearing an NHS lanyard??? They were following me around trying to get my attention and getting irritated because I didn't realise.

I'm glad you had a nice lie in, Beckie.

I hope you have a great time, Jen.

People are strange.

Afternoon all. I am having a lazy day as it's raining here so can't go out. Plus it's a bank holiday so the buses aren't running their usual time table.

Good afternoon all. I tried to get up at 10am but completely failed. Finally got up at half 1.

That's very odd jen and lindsay!

Work started off absolutely mental and parking was a nightmare.
But it has calmed down a lot.
Can only hope it stays like this now!
Then I'm off for 4 whole days!!!!

I hope you're having a nice relaxed day, Dawn.

Keep going, Beckie! Are you doing anything with your days off?

It's finally over!!!

Tomorrow we are going trampolining, then nail appointment. Wednesday is horse riding. Thursday hair appointment and Friday I'm seeing my nanny

And I thought I was busy!!!

I'm back at work (main job) tomorrow after being off since the 16th.

Also need to try and get a vet appointment for Pippin. He is making a sketchy noise :ermm:
Gonna call soon as they open tomorrow

How're you feeling about work?

What sort of noise?

I'm looking forward to being back and having some structure, but also know we're still people short so it'll be none stop.

Kind of a croaking noise? Hard to describe.

Yeah I get that. Hope it goes ok.

Morning everyone.
Unfortunately, my back is killing me so I've opted to not go to trampolining :'(
Actually gutted

Morning all

Morning everyone.

Oh no that's rubbish, Beckie. I hope your pain eases soon. Did you phone the vet about Pippin?

Hi Dawn, how are you today?

I am very tired Lindsay.

Thanks lindsay
I did. He has an appointment at 4:40pm

How are you?

A bit more awake now. Had appointment with cpn. It went ok.

I hope everything went well, Beckie.

I'm glad it went ok with your CPN, Dawn.

I'm having quite a difficult day.

I am sorry to hear that Lindsay.

Yes and no.
He's not unwell, but needs dental surgery next week.
Very worried.

Sorry to hear that lindsay
Whats up?
