[01:56:17] <AzumaHazuki> welp...am capable of a 12 hour shift even with anemia. that's a good sign
[01:59:16] <Bytram> That's called an "Unknown known"... I had little doubt you would make it through okay. cf: http://www.cs.uni.edu
[01:59:17] <upstart> ^ 03Knowing and Doing: August 2019 Archives ( http://www.cs.uni.edu )
[02:02:26] <TheMightyBuzzard> yup, anemia's basically like adding an extra helping of monday but it's doable if you're not building fence or clearing brush. working with a cold is harder on me.
[02:03:18] <AzumaHazuki> damn near 300 prescriptions today and no prizes for guessing who filled most of them
[02:03:51] <AzumaHazuki> that's on top of all the phone calls, drive thru, register work, and somehow i even got in an hour of PTCE prep training
[02:04:53] <TheMightyBuzzard> see, i would appreciate that. ten minutes of nothing to do and i'd have been asleep.
[02:05:16] <AzumaHazuki> i like continuously working too. it lets me forget the painful things, at least for a little while
[02:05:20] <TheMightyBuzzard> slow days drag on painfully
[02:06:40] <TheMightyBuzzard> in retrospect, i probably should never have taken a graveyard shift at a convenience store job back in my 20s. worst job i ever had, including plumber.
[02:07:34] <chromas> Did you ever get held up?
[02:08:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> in a town of ~3k? you can't hold up a convenience store when everyone knows who you are even in a ski mask.
[02:08:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> i bumped the alarm necklace thing against something once and got an exciting evening full of cops though.
[02:09:18] <TheMightyBuzzard> the entire force showed up. all three of them.
[02:09:28] <chromas> works for Ed Wuncler III
[02:10:00] <chromas> They must've been pretty bored
[02:11:34] <TheMightyBuzzard> only thing there is to do there back then was take booze from teenagers and pull over speeders.
[02:12:27] <TheMightyBuzzard> was coming in to town with my cousin in his cutlass once from a dirt road and he got pulled over for speeding.
[02:12:47] <TheMightyBuzzard> cop: what in the hell did you think you were doing coming in to town at 138 miles per hour?
[02:12:53] <TheMightyBuzzard> cousin: slowing down
[02:13:09] <TheMightyBuzzard> troo
[02:13:26] <Sulla> wait, 300 a day?
[02:13:29] <Sulla> thats not much
[02:13:55] <AzumaHazuki> for the size of this place and how few are working it, it is
[02:14:42] <Sulla> wife's pharm has two techs and one pharmacist and do 1k/day
[02:14:46] <AzumaHazuki> i would guess I did well over 200 of those, maybe closer to 250. Mina's 62 and outright says she's trying to get fired, May is out on disability until late October...
[02:15:17] <Sulla> sabatuers are jerks
[02:15:47] <AzumaHazuki> oh, Mina's no saboteur, she's just ready to retire and can't move too quickly
[02:16:56] <AzumaHazuki> a sort of informal division of labor is appearing. she mostly handles the register and drive-thru and all that messy socializing stuff. i mostly fill and do data entry and take phone calls
[02:17:30] <chromas> Sounds like you got the better deal
[02:17:40] <chromas> except for the phone part
[02:17:42] <AzumaHazuki> oh hell yes. i hate the register and the window
[02:18:17] <AzumaHazuki> basically i hate people :v like, shuddap and let me whiz around grabbing bottles and filling orders
[02:18:44] <AzumaHazuki> don't care about your kid's broken nose, don't care about the new cat, sure as hell don't care about who beat who at sportsball..
[02:18:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> s'the only bad part of being a service consultant. you have customers.
[02:19:51] <TheMightyBuzzard> thankfully i've hung around enough old fishermen to be able to amiably shoot the bull for hours at a time.
[02:20:15] <TheMightyBuzzard> even if i want to shoot myself in the head to make it stop
[02:20:34] <AzumaHazuki> bleh, i hate people and i hate "socializing" with most of them. especially the self destructive idiots who come pick up their insulin with a bunch of soda ><
[02:21:01] <TheMightyBuzzard> yeah, i didn't say i enjoy it. i just let my mouth go on autopilot.
[02:26:08] <TheMightyBuzzard> right, feels like time for one more dose of nicotine then some serious pillow time
