3rd day at my new job.
Day 1 - Saturday - 5 minutes of training on how to find items on in the back. Spent the rest of the day restocking shelves during one of the busiest days of the week, understaffed, under stocked. Ended up working an extra hour past my shift making a total of 9 1/2 hours, all on an empty stomach.
Day 2 - Sunday - No training what so ever. Twice as busy as the day before. The product report wasn't printed. Spent the first half of the day looking around the store trying to find out what needed to be restocked, while not knowing what was sold out. The second half of the day I spent trying to help customers find items they were looking for (while not knowing where anything in the store was). Management wanted me to work over, but my ride home showed up so they told me to go ahead and leave.
Day 3 - Today - Spent part of the day restocking the shelves. about 15 minutes of training on the register before being left to pretty much fend for myself. If I wasn't working the register, I was restocking the shelves, helping customers find items, helping load the heavier items into the customers vehicles, or helping customers pick the right tools they need. Worked 3 hours past my shift, a total of 8 hours. Not as busy as the previous 2 days, but still extremely busy. After getting home, management called and asked me to work later tomorrow as well.
I haven't worked this hard in a very, very long time and I must say... I absolutely LOVE my new job.
