Life Scout - Inventory

Arg! So I'm late, again. Sorry, again.

This past Sunday was the first time I had every done inventory at any job.
Now you're all thinking Ashley, inventory is BORING.

But that's where you're wrong!

Where I work, we turn inventory into a party. Actually.
We get food, and supper and hanging out with people and in addition to getting paid, for every hour we work we get a $15 gift card to the store. HOW AWESOME IS THAT?!

So after a few hours of scanning stuff with our little scanny things, we took a break to eat some delicious food from the restaurant and then continue.
I also think that the people I hang out with at work actually like to hang out with me and aren't like, oh she happens to be the person that I'm working with for this shift, so I guess I'll talk to her since I have nothing better to do.
YAY FOR NEW FRIENDS!

So anyway, this bizarre and slightly cucumber like badge is my inventory badge.
I hope I'll have many more inventories at my job, because who DOESN'T love $60 gift cards just for being awesome?
HECK YEAH, MY JOB RULES!

Life Scout - YouTube Truth or Dare

(Yes I know it isn't Saturday night again. Sorry)

So this week it wasn't exactly a new experience that I necessarily WANTED to do, or would have thought about doing, but instead I let my subscribers come up with dares for me to complete for my video.

If you haven't watched the video yet and like to see me suffer, I do recommend it.

So I brushed my tongue with shampoo, experimented with being a dominatrix, put on a shirt and tie while talking about a haircut, slathered peanut butter all over my face and climbed a tree.
Oh the things I do for the internet.

So I earned the Truth or Dare YouTube badge. Because doing stupid stuff for the internet has become my hobby.

Life Scout - Ordering Books

I starting working in the children's section at a local bookstore over the summer, and adore my job. One of the cool things about how the store is organized is that each of the sections (fantasy, mystery, etc.) are divided up and become the responsibility of particular people.
This means that you are ordering in the books, restocking, and are more in charge or keeping the shelves organized than other people would be.

Because I have been working there now for over six months (crazy!) I was given two sections to be responsible for. Teen Series and Teen Mystery.

The Teen Mystery section is a rather small section that never gets a lot of action (poor Teen Mystery) but my first section I was given is actually one of the larger sections and it's amazing that it's mine! The Teen Series is usually filled with a lot of fluff (Gossip Girl, Pretty Little Liars, and the like, but there are some fun series in there such as Heist Society and The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants)
The primary responsibility of the being a section head is to just restock books that have sold out of your section, however one of the more fun parts of it is to bring in a new series.

I've had Teen Series for over a month now, and it has become my baby and I'm quite attached to it, however all I had been doing was organizing, reorganizing and restocking. Until this week.
This week I brought in a series that the store hadn't had before!

I know this doesn't sound all that exciting, but it is for me, because I'm taking on more responsibilities at work and feeling more and more comfortable there all the time and this was one of the final tasks I'd yet to do.

I really do love my job, and even when I complain about it from time to time, it is mostly because I am just stressed out and not because I am unhappy about where I am working.

So, I have earned the Book Buying Badge.
(Yes I know "buying" isn't what I meant, but c'mon, it's an alteration!)

Also, in case you didn't watch my vlog (and you really should -shameless self-promotion badge unlocked!) I'm looking for truth or dare ideas, so put those in the comments!
