Excitement abounded the last few days in Etown. Last night, I got the happy privilege of calling the boys in blue following an accident in the parking lot of the store. No injuries, thankfully. From what we could determine, once again, a young woman had been talking on (guess what) her cell phone and backed […]

We have recently become even more technologically advanced at work. We have just installed check readers. Instead of needing to completely fill out the check, all the customer has to do is sign their name. The check is then run through the reader for approval.

Don’t take your love away from me Don’t you leave me heart in misery. No, no nothing quite that emotional. I forgot to mention another shattering event at the workplace last weekend. Friday morning, I walked to the store to pick up my paycheck and saw a sign on the door: Please use other door.

This weekend, I learned two new duties at work. One, I was strongly advised to learn the other I took upon myself to try my hand at. I have watched others cut a whole steak before but have never tried it myself. Last night, a customer who I know asked if we could cut two
