Crying at Work... I don't recommend it...

Well, yesterday I had a little incident with a co-worker. She was talking to someone she had earlier told me she "hated". So when "Jacob" and I had a line I called out to her and told her we needed help. She kinda turned around and then turned back to talk. So a little more authoritatively (or with attitude I guess you could say) I said that we had lines. So she stopped talking to them and helped finally. After the most of the customers were gone I leaned over to her register and started to say that I was sorry for coming across so bossy, and that I didn't mean it that way. However, before I could even explain she snapped, "NEVER DO THAT TO ME AGAIN!" I was boarder-lining tears at this point, and she was finishing up with a customer. So I didn't say anything to her. Then a little while later after all the customers were gone I tried to apologize even more and explain that I was trying to help her get away from the woman she didn't want to talk to in the first place. She still didn't really choose to accept my apology, and this all happened with about 20 minutes left in my shift. So it was the last thing that happened that day. Still trying not to cry I started collecting recovery. Then the guy I mentioned on Saturday that I think is cute (for the sake of this blog I will call him Jacob) came up to me with a little puppy toy. It instantly brought a smile to my face! For a couple reasons...

One reason was... Earlier that day at the beginning of my shift a little boy and his mom walked up to my register to check out. The little boy (Aprox. 5 years old) instantly started talking to me. He was telling me all about this little puppy toy that he was holding in his hand. He went on to explain to me that he couldn't have it right now, but he would be receiving it for his birthday. His mom said he couldn't have it, so I told him I would put it behind the counter. He handed it to me. And started telling me that he had named it George. He went on to tell me more about George. As I was finishing with his mom she looked at me and was like, "He can't have it right now. I have to be strong..." He was so cute, and he never complained or anything. As they were getting ready to walk away he told me to make sure I took good care of George. And if George got sick that I had to bring him back to health until his mom could come and get him. Awwww... I almost wanted to buy it for him... So when "Jacob" brought "George" up to me, it brought a smile to my face, and I told "Jacob" the story. He thought it was cute too.

So that was yesterday. Today went well. And GUESS WHAT!?!?!?!?!?!?!
