blackicebobaSo, the temperature dropped from like in the mid-70's - 80's (farenheit) down to like. . .50's - 60's yesterday. So, when I walked to work, it was like 75 degrees and I didn't need a jacket. By the time I left last night, it was like 30 something degrees.
My coworker was like "you're going to freeze. Call (manager) and see if you can get one of the company jackets" (They have like. . .uniform style jackets for the people who do the carts/trash/etc). So I called the manager's phone, but didn't get an answer. So I was like "it'll be fine."
I went to the restroom/cleaned up from where my shift was over and went to get my lunch box. Didn't think much about it. I got into the breakroom to see my manager and the girl who was helping him run the shift coming out of the back room.
My manager went "Hey (jilly) what size jacket do you wear?" and I told him and he was like "will a size bigger be okay?" and handed me the one in his hand.
I thanked them and got to go home a little warmer than I would have been. When I got back up front, apparently he and the girl (hannah) had called my station and the service desk trying to find me.
When I got up there, my coworker who had suggested it was like "He called just after you left and I was like SHE'S GOING TO FREEZE IF SHE WALKS HOME." So I guess they were scrambling to catch me before I left.
My shift lead came over like "Did Hannah find you? Cause she called and was like 'I don't know what size she wears! We're just going to guess!'." And around that time I guess I came through the door.
It struck me as. . .maybe I'm so used to like. . .expecting to be treated like crap, but I was surprised at the effort they put in just to make sure I have a jacket.
And now I have a jacket I can wear when I'm up by the front doors and it's cold.
Then I came home, watched the new Josh Johnson set and fell asleep. it's still very cold.
I have to work today but i'm going to TRY my damnedest to work on fic on breaks and tonight. Cause like. . .I at least want to finish this 07-Ghost fic before next week. I tried to do it on Monday but I got distracted by people messaging about something and then like. . .I'm at the point where IDK where it goes after this. (I wrote a really GOOD bit and had to roll around in how proud I was of it, though.)
I also forgot the corporate office is going to be in today. Not that it MATTERS since I do my job but it's still irritating cause everyone's going to be shitty about it.
