What comes around, goes around...

..So my Spirit store is open. A lot is different than before. But a lot is coming back to me. The whole being the manager part is not coming back as quickly as I expected. Maybe it's because my assistant was the manager last year at this location. And my other assistant doesn't seem that enthused to actually work. To be fair, they both have other jobs. And so does the person I want to make the third assistant. Nineteen years ago, when I last managed Spirit, people didn't need two and three jobs to survive. Oh how things have changed.
My only complaints so far is that the zone manager seems to want the impossible. Reset all the sections to planogram. Ok, then what do I do with the ten tons of product that we were sent that is NOT in the planogram? Can't store it because we have minimal storage space. Oh, and she wants that cleared out. But I have no where to put it because she wants all the sections to planogram, like WTF. Oh and we got a metric shitton of clearance merchandise, but my store has NO clearance section.
Basically its been a bit of a shitshow. But you know what? Still better than working at Fred Meyer. Just saying.

It's times like this I wish I could talk to my sister...

 I mean, I could talk to Annie. Maybe I could even hear her, or at least hear what she might have said. But it's not the same. By times ...
