Prompt: Write about a weird day in your workplace.
I actually just got a new job at Barnes and Noble (bookstore), so I hope I'll start to have many stories from there. As far as my older job, Walgreens, the entire place was weird - people and everything, so I'll pick the one that sticks out: the day I written up.
I came into work, normal day and nothing out of the ordinary. The previous night, I was at a friend's apartment with a few people - and, of course - alcohol and drunk texting was involved, but it wasn't particularly ME who was texting. It was my friend. To our manager.
Anyway, some things were said, some sexual in nature, and some nonsense in nature.
The next day, I was called in the office and was told a lot of things that I didn't know what was happening because I hadn't looked at my sent texts, and my friend deleted all the inbox texts. Even though we are all friends in the store (managers and employees), the manager apparently thought that it was wildly inappropriate (even though we all make sexual advances in the store together as jokes). Well, I was written up for something I wasn't conscious when it was happening, and to me, that was pretty darn weird.
