My shift started at 11 AM. I took an early bus so that I would have some time before I had to start. However, I just arrived in time as I had to walk part of the way: There was a guy who ran in front of the bus ater getting off, because he wanted to get his bike. The problem was that he came from behind the bus so that the bus driver couldn't see him. As the bus driver wasn't happy about that kind of behaviour, he reproved that guy. Unfortunately, the guy with the bike felt like he was treated unfairly and started a scene. He put his bike in front of the bus and refused to leave. The bus driver felt harassed and called for backup. As this seemed to be taking a while and we were rather close to Downtown, I decided to walk, which took about 20 minutes.
The first part of my shift went by pretty fast, since we had a lot of restock to do and were also quite busy. Around noon, there was a lady who triggered our door alarm. Even though there were no more security tags on the clothes she had bought, her bag seemed to be the cause of that. We finally figured that she had some lamps with metallic wires in her bag, which must have caused this weird false alarm.
My break started at 2:45 PM. My shift wasn't supposed to start again until 6 PM though. Thus, I took a bus home. I spent my break eating leftovers - a really nice salad and pancakes - while watching two episodes of 'Supernatural'.
Nevertheless, my break was over way too fast and I was quite exhausted when I started the second part of my shift. At least this time, I arrived at work without any incidents. It was extremely busy this evening. When I wasn't at the till checking customers out, I folding and sorting T-shirts nonstop, since the store was a mess. It didn't look too bad anymore when I left, though.
Back at home, I had a small night snack before going to bed, where I still read a little bit.
