Kissing Turkey Butt

Yesterday a coworker posted on facebook that he was getting ready to head into work.  He works as a cashier and in the office.  No office yesterday so he was cashier.  This is his first Thanksgiving working here.  He posted that it would probably be boring and that if he had 25 customers he'd kiss a turkeys butt.  Ive been there long enough to know what the sales are really like for Thanksgiving day.  Everyone forgets something and of course you get the procrastinators. I replied that he had better start puckering up because we usually get slammed.  We had over 600 transaction between 7 and 3 yesterday.  He didn't work today but he does tomorrow.  I'm going to buy him a chapstick and send him to the meat dept.>:)   I'm not the only one who saw that post.  We have it in writing and we're going to hold him to it.  If I get a pic Ill put it on here.

Im Still Here

OK. I give up.  I'll just write when I feel like it and I wont beat myself up when I don't.  If you follow me and read what I write then I really do appreciate it and I'm sorry I don't really have that interesting of a life.

I love Halloween and I really like Fall and Halloween decorations better than Christmas.  But anyone who works retail knows that once Halloweenhits its pretty much hell at work til January first.  The sales numbers are great but people are really at their worst and they treat people trying to help them like dirt.  I wonder if it makes them feel important and big to make some one else feel small. 

Here are two cakes I did for Halloween.  The one with the ghost and tree I do every year and Its my favorite.

The orange and black one is done with orange airbrush and then a Halloween place mat with cut outs used as a stencil and black airbrush.

Not much else going on right now.
