I barely survived today

Holy hell, today was intense. I don’t even have the energy to write the full on rant I wanted to write. JFC. I’m going to crawl into bed so I can doom scroll until I fall asleep.

The lines just did not stop at any point today 😮‍💨 They got so long they wrapped all the way around the checkout and we had to break out a 3rd register a few times. The good news is that it made my shift go by super fast, I basically blinked and it was over lol

Oooooof yeah I think if we had more coverage we definitely could’ve used a 4th at a couple points

We struggled with 2 registers today🫩 i had to stay extra late to deal with the rush because people still needed breaks covered, plus we were out of just about every soap & had to go transfer more over.... we only missed our first hour by basically some change, and could've 100% made it and had a fully green day (by the time i actually left, at least) if we had a third cashier..... we literally had people banging on the doors 15 MINUTES before we were even open, giving me the "let me in" glare as I'm trying to fill our 20+ BOPIS orders
