well any way it has long difficult battle but the local aquarium store has given me my first shift this saturday!:88)

it started with me asking the manager for an aplication form then him telling me to write CV!
then once i handed that in he asked for an avalability sheet. so things were going smothly untill i was told by the manager that my avlibility was no good to them!

then out o the blue i got a phone call from the manager asking me to come in on saturday!

That is great, congratulations.

In my area, Saturday is one of the busiest days (with Sunday) at the LFS. All people bring their kids (me included ) and the percentage of newbies is the highest all week (I only went on Saturdays when I started).

So stay patient and don’t get nervous or overexcited.

And one last thing, leave the mask at home

And if you thought bad LFS employees were bad, wait until you see what bad LFS customers are like!

We have some really bad ones around here, and I had to refuse to sell people fish on more than one occasion. Ughh... This one time last year this lady was demanding that I bag up a "Nemo" fish to put in her 2.5 gallon that already had two goldfish! No matter how many times I told her that it wouldn't work, she just couldn't get it through her head. It was seriously like talking to a brick wall.
