Part-Time Job #1 down...
Aug. 15th, 2007 10:29 pm...I have put in my quit notice at the electronics store. I asked for part-time work; they give me 29 hours. Working almost 70 hours a week was not in the game plan...Sunday is my last day there; I'm applying at both Barnes & Noble and Borders next week. (Seriously, I was supposed to get off at 9 Monday night. Walked out the door at 10:30. At least I got out earlier tonight.)
I'm really starting to get the hang of the POS P.O.S., and I'd forgotten how much I actually like working retail. I know, I'm a freak. :-)
ArmadilloCon was excellent, sales-wise. It always cracks me up when other jewelers complain about their sales at SF shows. Let's see. I make interesting-but-still-wearable-to-work stuff out of fossils, minerals, and interesting stones, I change my inventory as I add new skills to my repertoire, and all my necklaces and bracelets are made to be worn by adults (20"-24" necklaces, 9" bracelets). Golly, I wonder why I sell well there?

SPN fans, see that tropical storm DEAN will become a hurricane soon and should head for the Texas coast? Did anyone else giggle?
