No.
I am officially free from folding duties!! Today was my last day at the store and boy did it creep by. It might have had something do to with our upcoming vacation to California to spend a week with grandma and my sister and brother-in-law... And my mood must have had something to do with spending the previous three consecutive days in a musty, dirty basement counting and counting and counting. I'd go to bed at the end of the day and when I closed my eyes, all I could see was myself bending over boxes counting, bundling clothes in fives, recounting them, and entering the data into my hand-held machine. Ugh. I've never experienced such a difficult, tedious, and exhausting task. Worse than taking college exams and worse than grading students finals. Today, all I could think about was getting OUT. I spent the last part of my day reflecting and counting (believe it) all the items I was responsible for in the men's department, which is one of the biggest. (I also worked in other departments)
Here's what I calculated (since I'm so good at math now):
-490 sweatpants and shorts hung
-260 misc. items hung (tees, sweatshirts, long sleeves)
-864 tee-shirts folded
-1304 sweatshirts folded
Total: 750 items hung (psshhh! piece of cake)
Total: 2168 items folded (!!)
Lesson: Be a gentle shopper.

So glad you're done and can relax! Have FUN in CA and if you ever have the urge to fold and sort, come clean my closets!!! Love you, Mom
ReplyDeleteRemember last summer when you helped me fold and organize the kids' clothes for the coming year? :o)
ReplyDeleteWhenever I look at something in a store and unfold it, I always try to refold it but can never (ever) get it back the way I found it. I always end up with a weird triangle. I'm pretty sure I can't help it.
