I'm Becoming Part of the Store
Each time I clean the dust from Hardcover Shop or ETG, I feel it coating my lungs and changing my mind.
I dream in Nee-Doh's and bumper boxes. I can see a customer rush minutes before it'll happen, and call for backup at Cashwrap before it can ever get out of hand. I look at a shipment truck, and I know instantly from the way it goes over the potholes in our parking lot if it has Pokémon cards or not. I can tell from a customer's gait whether or not there's a Rewards/Premium Card in their wallet. Pyramids, Endcaps and Gift displays resort themselves with a thought, customers know where to locate books with a word. My coworkers keep tally of all the V-Carts I've emptied, and wonder at how fast I manage to do it.
Me headed into the store for my shift today
