Ok, no not really. But the Grape will not be around as often.

As most of you know, I work for Gamestop, and just recently (like yesterday) My manager, Marco, and I were transferred to a bigger store. Appearntly this store just had an inventory, and their previous manager took about 10k worth of stuff, so since my previous manager took half that before Marco came, and Marco did such a great job of fixing our store, he's been moved to fixed this one.And since Marco and I are a "team" he's taking me with him. So I'm moving from a store that is like 5 minutes away, to a store that is 30-45 minutes away. Not only that, but my new store is about 4 times bigger and they have longer hours.
Old Store Hours
Monday - Saturday 10am - 9pm
Sunday - 11am - 6pm
New Store Hours
Monday - Saturday 9am - 11pm
Sunday 10am - 10pm

And I am going from 30 hours a week to 40, plus the hour to hour and a half of driving time. So the next few weeks are a transition period, where I will most likely be very super tired, at least until I get myself on a new sleeping schedule.

Now, I will still come around as much as I can, it just won't be that often. I have two days off a week, so I'll try to get on then if I'm not sleeping.

I love you guys though. <3

Crew! If you guys could pleasse take over the birthday thread for me? I just don't want anyone to get left out when their birthday comes. I'll see if I cn still do the contest for the Mule, but if not I'll let you know.

One last thing, if you guys ever *need* me, just send me PM, I get a notice on my phone, and I can try to check it when I get home from work.

You made me panic when I saw the thread title. razz

But aw, you'll be missed regardless! I really hope you'll be as happy at the new store as you were in the old one. Transition periods are tough but I'm sure you'll make it. Just don't get overwhelmed!

As for the birthday thread, Fyrae and I will definitely keep an eye on it. No worries. 3nodding

Good luck! heart

Ok, My first day totally rocked. I am super tire though. Let;s see, it started with one of the other managers coming to show me where everything was to open, and all that stuff and he's really nice and said "We know you are Marco's second hand, and we're cool with that. We just want you to feel comfortable at this store,' and I was like aww! And then all day, both of the other managers kept calling and texting, making sure I was ok (I had to work alone)

Then 15 minutes after I open a lady comes in saying she's gettin a wii, and I tell her we don't have any. She says "Oh, I know! I'm just going to go get a book and then sit up here and wait for UPS. But here! I brought you donuts!" Coolest thing ever! xD

I'm going to try to be on a little tonight, but I'm super tired, so forgive me if I pass out. xP

Glad your first day rocked! Sorry that you will probably be really tired soon, but I do hope that you adjust quickly. Gonna miss seeing you around a lot, though, Grape1 Feel free to pass out.

A random text message conversation between my boss and I.

Marco: "Did you go to the bank last night?"
Me: "Yes, why?"
Marco: "Did you go to the right one?!"
Me: "Yes. Why? Was I not suppose to?"
Marco: "Angel and I were talking and it came up."
Me: "Oh, sorry."
Marco: "I was telling him about the twins."
Me: "What twins?"
Marco: "THE TWINS"
Me: "Oh! lol!! Why were you telling him about that!"
Marco: "Naw, Just joking. I keep images of those to myself lol"
Me: "lol good! They aren't twin-worthy yet!"
Marco: "Am I not worthy cause I haven't seen them yet either"
Me: "Hmm. I dunno."
Marco: "But its-a-me MARCO woo hoo!"
Me: "LMAO"

Good luck with everything love! I might be transferring to a different city here soon. Personally, since I love my job at Game Stop, I would adore moving to a store that's open longer... and where I would get more hours. haha
