It is snowing, and icy, here in Rehoboth.
The store was tres busy today - typical "Soon it's gonna rain" shopping, with everyone buying a lot more than they usually would on a Sunday. I was scheduled to monitor the self-scan registers, but spent at least a third of my time working a regular register. Lots of very full carts.
Even when I was on self-scan, we were hopping. The bill-dispensing mechanism on Register Four was acting up, and there was no time to reboot the contraption, so I was having to dash back and forth, getting customers change from my monitoring station. That wouldn't have been such a hassle, but there were quite a few customers who wanted extra cash back, something to make their pockets happier. People, it's gonna snow! You're not gonna be out and about this evening! Whaddaya need pocket money for???
And that's what it was like at work.
