First Day.

My first day at Timmy's was rather odd. I was given no training, which was fine because I was only running drinks and that has been ingrained in my skull even after a year. Still, it seemed odd just to walk out to the counter and start making coffee. Also, we don't time the coffee. At home after 20 minutes we had to dump the coffee, here we use our discretion. However it goes fast enough, I doubt we're breaking our "always fresh" policy. Everything else is laid back too, standing and chatting while it's dead wasn't a big deal apparently (not that it happened often, and if it did it lasted for a minute) and we could have drinks up front as long as we weren't drinking while taking an order or something. Speaking of drinks, we are allowed to have as many as we want! As long as they are not bottled or iced capps, they are essentially free! For $1.70 a shift, I can have whatever food or drink I want. Good deal. It really was weird though, knowing how to make everything and not having to be followed around by a trainer, but I guess it was nice. :)

On a completely different note, here is my Christmas wish list so far:

--DVDs-seen them, or not, movies are the best study break in the world.
--Money (Cash or watcard)
--Large Puma bag. However they're pretty pricey and I might just get it myself.
--EARRINGS! I'm losing mine..
--Mascara (seriously, it's expensive and I don't want to buy it myself)
--Love-The Beatle's
--Case for glasses. A nice one. One that is big. The one my glasses came in doesn't close when the cloth and glasses are in it at the same time. I can't leave the glasses out and the cloth gets dirty if it is elsewhere.
--a post secret book!

That's all..for now, I will keep this updated.


Leave a comment if you actually read this. I don't know if anyone does. I enjoy doing it anyways.

Love always,
