Perhaps ya'll are wondering about the outcome from the other night....maybe not.  Here it is anyways!

Apparently, my brother in law did not go home the other night.  He went to McDonald's, got something to eat, came back, and fell immediately asleep.....in his car. By immediately, I mean that when I went to his car the next morning to wake him up and send him inside, his food had not been touched.

They did their oh I'm so sorrys, and they are currently in the living room watching tv.  Jack felt horrible about what happened, and he won't shut up about it.  We actually didn't go to the CMA Fest stuff on Saturday because he felt so guilty and I quote, "didn't deserve to go."  So we just hung out around the house.

Yesterday, I went to work even though it was my day off just to make sure everything was ready for inventory.  When I left there was maybe 3 things to do, but they still freaked out about doing it.  I don't understand why.  I said, "If you don't think you are going to get something finished, just call me and I will come back up here.  Not a big deal.  I just need to go to my mother-in-law's house to help her for a little while."  I of course got a message that they didn't think they were going to get everything finished.  I went up there to double check everything after the store closed.

Inventory is OVER!  YAY!  The person I speak of in the previous paragraph (don't wanna violate those "social networking" rules established by my employer -that also can't be named), told me today that she didn't ever want to have to do inventory prep again.  I almost said, "Remember that next year when I take you off of the schedule for a month" but I didn't.  Apparently she didn't catch that we have been prepping for inventory for the whole month, and she did barely any of it and just felt rushed yesterday.  All she really needed to do yesterday besides a box up was straighten.  I honestly don't even think that she finished the aisles that I assigned to her.  This is when I say I did most of the inventory prep.  I did the aisles that I had assigned to myself, and then did several other people's aisles to help them be where they needed to be.  What can I say?  The work of a manager goes unnoticed.  They probably think that I do nothing and leave it all to them.  Hahahaha  I just think that they are used to the store manager doing all of the inventory prep and leaving them out of the equation.  Not this one.  You won't see me staying the night before inventory until 4 in the morning to make sure everything is done.  It can be finished waaaaaaay before if everyone does their fucking job.  Ok...I think I am finished venting now.  That just really pissed me off.

Sooo it has been officially decided that I am going to Old Forge, NY with my mother-in-law the first week in August!  EEK!  I am so excited!  I think we have decided to drive.  We were originally planning on flying, but I researched taking an urn on board a plane.  The ashes have to be in a airline approved urn, so now Mo wants to drive because she doesn't want to have to deal with that.  I told her that we could take 2 days to get there that way if she needs to stop we can.  I think I am going to try to rent a car for this trip, so we are the most comfy.  If you know anybody who can hook me up, let me know.  The rental has to be an actual unlimited miles vehicle.  A lot of them say unlimited miles, but it is up to a certain mileage.  I am soooo excited!  Niagara Falls is finally in my future!  I just wish my hubby were going with me!
