Status: offline 		          I haven't been working since May 2006, shortly before my Master passed away then afterwards, I just didn't care or have the enthusiasm to get up and do much of anything. I went yesterday and took my drug test for my new job, it's just cashier/ clerk in a grocery store but they are trying to find a position in stock for me because I have experience. I look at it this way, it's not alot of money but it's money and it will get me out of this house, help my self-esteem some- get around people instead of staying away from everyone like I have been doing. I don't know when I start, I have orientation next week but hey, it's a good start....maybe things this year will go better for me

wayy cool!!  I worked with the public for several yrs. Here is my advice. Always show manners.  expect 1 out of 100 to be jerks- try not to let the one jerk of the day bring you down.

next- comfy shoes- possibly cushoned socks. when i did construction, i used these special socks made for standing on feet all day. it was worth the extra $2.

it always boils down to your WRITTEN JOB description.  when politics or personal life is prodded, try to stay out of any pre games that already go on.  A simple senence such as " I am here to serve teh public/customers" --- can do wonders at nipping in the bug workplace inuendos. be polite but professional.

ive seen your posts over time. i have no doubt you will succeed.  [with inflation figure 3 jerks out of 100] you are a very sensitive lady. if you need to vent- we can talk via phone...


anyhow  good going.
im happy for u!
Roger

Getting out of the house is very important for the mourning process. Interacting with people is also a positive thing. You're heading in the right direction.

Status: offline 		thankyou. i just got up one morning and said to myself either i do something positive in my life and make some changes something that would have made my late Master proud or I sit here day after day doing nothing, becoming nothing. It is definately a step in the right direction- no doubt- a Dom friend of mine told me if I fail my drug test I will meet his whip lol...

Congratulations!!!
Even if it is a 'simple' cashier job (wich is not that simple), it is a job anyway!!

I work as a cashier in a grocery store too, some pieces of advice: Like Pahunkboy said, always take confortable shoes (sneakers  are the bests); keep your quiet even when you met "son of a gun type" of clients.always preparing you working space, just before taking services,....
I know it sounds a bit silly but i can assure you that it will help feeling better at work.

What kind of grocery store would you be working in? Walmart or a "local" store?

I hope you will enjoy it.

Status: offline 		I so much understand what you mean.  When I went through losing someone close to me a couple of years ago, I went through the same thing.  I finally got so depressed, I wouldn't even go out of the house. 

I have now enrolled in school and I start classes next week.  It is doing me a world of good just getting back out there and being around others again.  I know it's still going to be hard sometimes, but one step at a time will take us back into it all again.

Good luck, hun...
