Blog 3-- Ashlynn

this blog is going to be about my first job. this summer i started working at farmers market in lake city. i’m not gonna lie it’s one of the worst things ever. but it is slowly getting better. i started in july and the first thing i figured out is that i’m totally not gonna be a working type of person. i’m a cashier and i just help around the store with whatever they need. one thing that makes working bearable is making so much money. i like not having to depend on my parents whenever i need money or i want something. if i want something now i can buy it whenever i want and that’s the best feeling ever. one thing that’s bad about me is i know how to blow my money like it’s nothing. anytime i buy anything it will be more than likely food. i have to learn how to budget my money haha. i’m learning about all the people that come to the store and it’s rlly fun. there’s the crazy people, weird people, rude people, nice or sweet people. me working is also making me more of a sociable person. i’m learning social skills and how to be less awk around people i don’t know. here’s a funny story ab what happened when i was working. this older guy and his daughter came into the store and they bought some yahoos and after i got done scanning the little girls yahoo she told me she loved me. the dad was like i love you too but then she said no i was talking to her. i didn’t know what to do so i just laughed awkwardly. you might not think it’s that funny but it was better in person. it was honestly super cute. there’s also times when people i don’t like come into the store but i have to be nice to them or i’ll get fired lol. so the point in this blog was how my first job is a great learning experience for me. y’all should come visit me while i’m working sometime!!

  1. I wish i had the time to have a job because I would love having extra money to spend. I’ve gotten to the age were my parent are constantly harassing me about getting a job because of gas money or needing money to go out and buy things. If i had a job I would suck at keeping control of my spendings because I’m an impulse buyer. If it’s something i want but don’t really need, leaving me with zero money. Another thing that would be hard about having a job is dealing a with customers. I’m like you, very awkward around people I don’t know. Peace out.
