Great Day at Work!


I really do work with a very nice group of people. Sure we have our ups and downs but overall it is a good work environment. Today seemed like I was more accepted for some reason?

Don't know if yesterday had anything to do with it. I approached the store owner with an idea. It is not my idea. It was something that sold well at Bi-Lo, Puppy cupcakes. I told him about it and he asked to see what it looks like. I whipped one up and we are now selling Puppy cupcakes.

At first, I felt like I was overstepping my bounds again. I felt a tension or resentment for having the nerve to talk to the owner. Heck, sales ideas are copied all the time. If it sells it keeps us working. I'm all for sales no matter where I work. (whipped up 8 Puppy cupcakes to start with at $1.99)

When the first Puppy sold this morning the tension eased. Then the second sold about 1/2 hour later as the cashier saw it while checking out the customer. Next one sold hour later. Soon came "we better make some more" as I'm off this weekend. We made 12 more. It was fun. Just being part of a team is a great feeling.

I really do like working here. Like I said, a great bunch of girls/women all working together. Sure we have different speeds and talents which really do compliment each other. I also now know the ONE that is super organized and the keeper of the freezer. Rotation is not a problem. I feel so much better. Too quick to judge again. Shame on me.
