I just finished my first day of being an actual co-manager at Kroger's. The classroom stuff is all done and now it's really time to go out there and make a difference. The store I'm in is somewhat small and has lots of challenges but I'm looking forward to rolling up my sleeves and getting to work.
The rest of the management staff seems quite nice and willing to help this "newb". My schedule for the next month has been made and I have to say...it rocks! Yeah...several 10pm closing shifts but that's not such a big deal. Toss in every other weekend off and some 7-4 shifts and I'm a happy guy!
And YES! I still collect casino chips and have been able to pick up a few recently. Increased income never sucks. The Derby releases were kinda sad this year...only the Palms, Hard Rock, and Caesars Indiana had chips and the Hard Rock pulled the same crap as last year by requiring you to place bets to get their chips...argh!
I'm in the process of re-cataloguing my Derby chips with the help of a new binder that will will hold them all, so that means new scans and posts...hell, I might even update my website!
As we say in World of Warcraft when something good happens...wOOt!!
