Story Time Part 1

So first of all I feel the need to let out my second day working with glasses, the people that sell them, and that people that wear them.
It was nuts.
I started out just shadowing for the day. This was fine. Then around lunch time I think I actually became the lunch. I was fed to the sharks. And left to die.
Luckily, I remember a decent amount and did not feel badly about bugging the crap out of my fellow eyewear sellers. For some reason, I already have been given a commission amount that I am supposed to reach daily (even though I thought I was just supposed to be shadowing for the next week or so). How this makes sense, I haven't quite figured out. I go back in today, 11-7, and I'm not sure what to expect. I'm worried about falling short but at the same time, I feel like they can't blame me for it as they literally just threw me out there with little to no experience. I'm glad they have faith in my ability, but I certainly do not have the same enthusiasm that they do. Oh well. Perhaps today will be a little slower and they will go back to letting me shadow and train rather than do it all by myself. We'll see. It's a Tuesday so I can't imagine too many people coming in. But if I apply that same reasoning, then Monday shouldn't have been so dang busy either. Hmmm. I feel a long day coming on...
