Exhaustion...

next time dan and lis take a day off... remind me to call in sick... i don't have any interesting quotes from today... it was way to busy!!

In honor of the blog address.

There was a rather long line at the registers at one point today, so I had to open a 4th register. Now because classes have not started yet, we only have three registers with cash in them... Will I asked "A" to jump on a register....

Me: "A will you please jump on that (pointing to a certain) register? You can do any transactions except for cash, there isn't any in the drawer."

Student: "WHAT!?! YOU DON'T TAKE CASH?!?!"

Me: "Whaaat?"

Student: "You just said you don't take cash??"

Me: (not able to help myself) "What's cash?"

Student: ... ... ... (look of concern crosses his face)

Me: (DUH!) "I'm kidding, we do take cash. Just don't go to that register.




I never thought I would be so happy to move... I have Friday through Monday off!!! Thank you Labor Day and Moving Day!!

A Spazm Of People...

So...no severely dumb people today. At least none I've encountered. (Seriously, I think "encounter" is THE word!!! ...okay, yeah.)

But once meaghan punched out for break, a WHOLE crap load of people decided to come in and use financial aid! So, there was me and Annette - didn't know where Tina was (probably visiting the llamas...), pretty much all of them had SFA, and pretty much ALL of them were new students!! So they weren't in the system. Putting people into the system (without screwing up) takes time - or extreme concentration. but when you're dealing with a lot, A LOT, A LOT of people...it gets a little hard.

Luckly, Most of them were deaf, so the people that took up space were the translators. (That sounded so mean, but I meant it in the nicest way.)

Which reminds me, How come all of the deaf customers are SUPER nice, and all of the other customers are SUPER dumb, or mean...?

[yeah..i'm just venting a little. Don't take it personal...]

What?!

So the last post was really by Dan.. We are still figuring out how that one happened.. haha! Today this lady walked up to me and wanted her books. I finished finding them and then she asked if that was it. I said yes and then she asked another question that blew my mind!
"Isn't there a math book also?"
I just looked at her and said, "umm nooo... you aren't taking a math class..."
OH MY GOSH!!! I'm on break right now.. I have to go back soon. I wanted to put that one up before I forgot it.

boss lady's encounter

So, this lady wanted to purchase a bag pack with her financial aid... and then RETURN IT (?!?!) for CASH BACK!!! wtf?!!

Really?? Seriously??

"Can I pay for that here" no mind you, they are asking me this at Textbook information where there is OBVIOUSLY no register....

my answer... "No... you pay for it at the register..." (THE ONES YOU WALKED PAST ON THE WAY IN!!!!)


Oh and a good one, after I have given them their books... "Ok, thanks. So I can just leave now... Riiiight???"

me... "WHAT? NoOoOo you need to go through the register (pointing to the location, so they don't ask where it is)"

My "Favorite" Quotes

"I'd like used, please."

"I ordered a used one."

"When wil you be getting more used in?"

"How many used do you have of ...?"

"It's your fault I got the wrong book!!"

"No one told me there was a deadline!"

"What does that mean..?"

"I order my books online with my financial aid..."

"I don't have an ID..." "Oh..! You mean a liscence?!"

"..Don't you mean student ID?" "Well, can't I just give you that instead?"

"Hi! I'm looking for a book...?"

"Is this the bookstore?"

"Are you guys Open?"

"What do you mean I don't have a dollar amount? They said I was in the system. They told me to come here, and that I was all set!"
