After working at Jb Hi-Fi Cannington today (so Damo could train one of the cannington guys at carousel for the day), I've found that I have become attached to the people I work with at Carousel. It happened slowly, but I missed them after spending the day at Cannington.. Also, that place really was in a terrible state. Very different to Carousel's state. In all fairness, we are a new store... But still...

I'm deaf after going to my brother's performance last night. Proud of him, but deaf. I can't hear in my right ear... Working alone in games today, a Saturday of all days. I hope I don't lose it.

JB Hi-Fi Carousel, Games Section.

#1 in Australia.

1) Got Quannie a job at JB Hi-Fi!
2) Wrath of the Lich King rocks!
2a) Queues for waiting to get on suck... Bought NFS: Undercover for PSP to alleviate the boredom.
3) Playing keyboard is a lot more complicated than I expected
4) As I was alone on the floor for pretty much 98% of last week at work, I pretty much soloed a new record for JB Hi-Fi Carousel Games section. Obviously I can't really take all the credit though.. It WAS the week we mass-sold guitar heroes, and Damo was always there for help if I ever needed any... So I'd probably put it closer to a 50/50 effort :P. Jumped to 4th highest sales, Australia-wide.

Quan just told me Erin plays WoW. WTF!? Why didn't I know this? :P

Also, my manager, teh great Damo, has rewarded my hard work with some string-pulling to nab me a collector's edition of Wrath of the Lich King expansion! :D I'm STOKED!!!

Finally, something I can look forward to :P

5 Warranties sold in 4 hours. Bang!

Basically warranties are our biggest moneymakers and I managed to convince customers to put down warranties on the consoles they bought. Sure, you may think it's scamming, but it really is for their own good..If anything breaks, we'll replace it. I don't see why you shouldn't get it tbqh >.>

In comparison...
Week 1: 5 warranties
Week 2: 2 warranties
Week 3: 8 warranties
Week 4: (This week starting), 5 warranties already :P Still got the rest of the week to go! Wahaha... I hope I do well :3



E secc ran...

Hectic! Only person on in games, I think I handled it pretty well. There was at least one request every 5 minutes for a games advisor.. At one point, I was juggling 3 of them simultaneously ~_~ lol. It was alright though, having something to do. More happened at work, but my little poem in the post below this pretty much dictates what happened.

This may sound a little gay, but I'm really glad to have Damo as my superior. He is definitely the most reliable and helpful person I've ever met in a work environment. Also great to chat with. He generally makes my life at JB a lot better than it could be. I kinda feel bad always calling him for help when he isn't in the store... I know he has a life outside of it, but the fact that he won't even give a second thought to helping me out just shows what a great guy he is. So big kudos to him x]

Anyway. I think I'm gonna get myself a piano/keyboard teacher. It's hard to teach myself without knowing 90% of the stuff I'm meant to know and understand =.=..


I'm thinking of moving out of home soon. First home buyers' grant will get me started easily... Things at home are getting too tense. I know it's expensive to live alone, but I think it would be a fair trade off to escape and be able to do things as I want to. Worst comes to worst, I'll move out as soon as I finish at University...

The Ignorant Hak Guai

by Alex Hanssen

The ignorant hak guai messes up a lot
The ignorant hak guai cannot page properly
The ignorant hak guai has a poor idea of fashion (not saying that mine's any better, though x])
The ignorant hak guai cannot do their own job properly
The ignorant hak guai can't find a single piece of paper within a 5 metre radius of herself
The ignorant hak guai blamed me for not finding said piece of paper for her
The ignorant hak guai had the nerve to say that I did nothing while I was working
The ignorant hak guai was ignorant of the fact that I was running around like a headless chook, being the only person on in games for the night after 6pm, with so many calls for a games advisor. All of which I handled well and completed to the best of my ability.

I hope you enjoyed my poem :]

There really isn't anything exceptional happening in my life lately. Very plain. Work, eat, sleep. That's pretty much my day.

We get a guy that comes in almsot every day and plays guitar hero. We have labelled him 'THE Guitar Hero'.

Also, there's various words for browsing, apparently. My list:

Browsing
Havin' a squizz
Brown-nosing
Guzzing
Gozzing
Stickybeaking
Sniffing

Sigh @ aussies and their slang... lol. Til next time, readers.
