I&#8217;ve been doing the cashier job now for 2 weeks.  Mostly I like it.  I don&#8217;t have to do any of the back breaking work anymore, or do all the walking (anywhere from 4 to 12 miles a day), or get blamed for things that aren&#8217;t my fault and yelled at about stupid stuff.  No more stress.  I got to keep the best part, which is seeing all the people.  I get home at a decent time now and I get to watch evening TV shows with my old man.  Some days I do absolutely nothing but stand there, which is kind of like a vacation for me.  Other days I&#8217;m pretty busy, but the time does go by.  One of these days I&#8217;ll be able to retire, but until then, I won&#8217;t have to work so hard.  I actually sleep better at night too.  I&#8217;m really enjoying NOT being in that so-called UPPER ESCHELON.  Yeah, they just don&#8217;t know how much that will hurt them by NOT promoting me when they had the chance!  4 times trying for it was enough for me.  One of the gals there told me that it&#8217;s all about how hard they ride you there.  Well, I was starting to feel like I was &#8220;rode hard and put away wet&#8221; every day.  I took it and took it and took it for 5 years, and after working 25 days in a row, I had enough!  A lot of people have quit there to go to places with better pay and better hours.  Well, I got better hours, but a little less pay when I changed over to cashier.  I didn&#8217;t want to quit and go someplace else and lose all my benefits, 4 weeks vacation, profit sharing, and insurance.  So &#8220;stepping down&#8221; from being a manager was definately worth the small cut in pay (and the BIG cut in the stress level).  I look at the people they have over there now, and I just have to laugh!  One of them knows some about the area, and the other one is a drama queen who doesn&#8217;t know anything about the area and hates it there.  I keep hearing little things, and every time I do I just have to smile and think how much happier I am now that I don&#8217;t have to deal with all that.  OK, now that I got all that off my chest, maybe I&#8217;ll write more often!  If anyone reads this, just leave a comment ok?  Bye for now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well, it&#8217;s October 18th. I&#8217;ve been doing the cashier job now for 2 weeks. Mostly I like it.
