BTW I ran a photo lab back when people still actually used film. I made decent money managing it and became known as the place to take the "artsy" photos of your girlfriend/wife to be developed. Had this guy whose wife was a knock out redhead. He took extremely "artsy" pictures of her. It was like a Christmas bonus every time he came in.

1) awesome

2) how the #### do you become known as the place to take those photos to, especially pre internet? did you wear a badge that said, hi, i accept nude photos of your wives and girlfriends? was there some kind of underground club where people talk about where to get their nudies developed? or maybe you were hooked in with a bunch of swingers and just didnt know it?

Good question. Guy with the red head was my nude picture first customer. I know he recommended me to at least two other people. I assume they recommended and so on. I was always very circumspect with their pictures and for the most part they would only drop off if I was there. If I wasn't there they would request it be held until I was to develop it. Plus I put effort into the development. I just didn't let them auto process I did every frame by hand. Quality first after all.

Going for a degree in Accounting.

I have to ask, does this mean, at 22 years old, you are almost done? Or does this mean at 22 you are just starting college hoping to get a degree in Accounting?

Regardless, you are one of my favorite posters in the FFA. Keep up the good work, GB!

 

[TheIronSheik]

I'm no detective, but I bet you are some kind of student; an honor student, perhaps?

 

[St. Louis Bob]

I think your manager is up to something.

 

[TheIronSheik]

I would seriously watch a reality show based on this guy's life.

Have you thought about pitching it to a network? Like Lifetime? Or Bravo?

 

[timschochet]

Have you considered running for Congress?

 

[dickey moe]

Just for the record, this guy is actually an Honors Student. He was just pissed, but got some legit advice from you guys.

 

[Sarnoff]

I was Junior and Senior Class President in High School

I once worked with this frat-bro guy who, swear to god, put on his resume when he applied for the job that he was "Homecoming Prince". Seriously. He said it thought it would convey that he was well-liked, popular, and easy to get along with. All it ended up doing was getting him nicknamed "Your Majesty", as in, "Coffee pot's low, your majesty", "The toilet in the men's room is overflowing, your majesty, can you take care of it?"

That's hilarious.

This should be good.

Now that we have a new woz, can we get rid of the old one?

 

[Officer Pete Malloy]

Go across the street to CVS and see what they are offering. Then try Rite Aid. Go back to Walgreens to see if they can beat the best offer. Fire up a bidding war for your services and you'll be rolling in quarters by 2014.

See if there is an opening in the Butter Dept.

Did you include your fantasy football acumen on the resume? I am sure they would be impressed that you knew David Wilson would suck and that Leveon Bell would be a stud.

Any speculation your real talent may lie in being an NFL scout?

[GibbyGarcia]

You are clearly being wronged here. Let me get this straight, you've worked, what?, like 30 - 4 hour shifts already? I can't possibly understand why you aren't the general manager already! Your never going to make it to CEO by spring at this pace.

I worked at an OSCO at 20ish, it never even occured to me to ask or want a promotion because I had ZERO intentions of working there long term. If pay is the issue, you need to get out of retail and go find another job.

Nope. Felt like that would be a violation of their trust. But if I had you guys would definitely love them. The redhead in particular was stunning.

And I know you guys are making fun of me. But I have been working since 16. I am way more competent than the average bear.

The idea that I couldn't micromanage a Drugstore is a joke.

What do you think micromanage means?

Whatever he thinks it means, it means. This is a guy with boatloads of managerial experience, after all.

I, for one, embrace our new Eminence Overlord.

actually I see Eminence as the little boss from the Ford Fusion commercials

MY WAY, MY WAY, MY WAY

 

[bushdocda]

I think micromanaging the beverage aisle involves the little airplane bottles of liquor.

 

[Koya]

My guess is if there's anything micro about Eminence, it ain't his managing.

I think he may have mentioned somewhere in this thread that he was an honor student, as well.

 

[Mr. Know-It-All]

I am going to go out on a limb and say that micromanaging a retail emporium is not likely to allow you to retain an effective staff of rocket surgeons required to operate such a high stress endeavor. If your intent is to lead Walgreens to preeminent position in the Competitive Pharmacy industry you are going to need to incorporate a managerial style that will allow you to concurrently deliver diverse, high quality products to the consumer in a timely fashion while positioning Walgreen employment to be a highly desirable status for the next generation of students at all of the prestigious business schools.

 

[Cyclones]

How big a pay raise is the Shift leader position? How much more work is it? Would you get benefits?

Walgreens isn't exactly a career company, they underpay and overwork their employees from what I hear. Might be time to move on.

I'm guessing around $10.00 an hour. It's much, much less work. It requires you to tell goons like me what to do all day.

If you require someone to tell you what to do all day, the $8.25 an hour you make is way too much.

I still think Eminence desperately needs a life coach. I nominate Mr. Pickles.

 

[sbonomo]

this tread is quicly becoming gold....we just need a long rant from Evilgrin to make this complete.

 

[(HULK)]

And seriously kid, check your ego at the door. No one here cares that you're an accounting honor student a podunk community college. You come off as completely full of yourself and you really have very little to actually be proud of. Take it down a notch or we'll continue to take you down a notch.

You sir are fired for not thinking of us first....Other than that you seem like a good enough guy.

 

[Eminence]

Micromanagement is a management style whereby a manager closely observes or controls the work of subordinates or employees.

That is exactly how things go at my store. The person in charge makes a list of #### for you to do then comes by every 20 - 30 minutes to check up on you.

 

[Eminence]

Really though, my opportunity to comfortably move out of my parents house just flew out the window.

Annoying.

[TheIronSheik]

Thanks God, you're back. I was getting worried.

Have you discussed why you are not working as a bartender or as a construction worker? These jobs would seem to pay more and have better benefits than getting all the 35mm film you want developed for free.
