So, I always feel like I have interesting stories from work. Here they are.

(*Note that I live in a small town full of hicks. I work at a video/music/book store called Hastings.)

The blog name, firstly, comes from the greeting all employees are supposed to give every single customer as they walk in. "Hi, welcome to Hastings", or something along those lines.

Every time I go to work, something happens. For one thing, the computers (or rather, registers) are old. So, they don't always work well. This is awesome, especially when it freezes when you're ringing some one up. Or when it goes to the main menu when you're trying to give the total. Or when the CHECK SCANNERS WON'T WORK. Or when foreign people come in asking about things and you try to direct them as best you can... even though they speak in broken English. Or like today, when someone calls asking about a book based on the cover. This store is a 1/3 bookstore. Do you know how many books we have? At least she knew the category...
