It is 8:30am and I am already at the shop as we are short-staffed today.
*sigh*
All the kids went for a lantern party last night and daddy also finally came home from Bintulu. Therefore, everyone went to bed rather late.
About last night:
Kid no.1 had a nose bleed.
Kid no.2 wet her bed.
Kid no.3 ran a mild fever.
Kid no.4 woke up for milk 3 times (as usual) and then decided he had had enough sleep at 5:30am!
I am therefore present with bloodshot eyes and must warn you that I get wonky when I go without my minimum requirement of 8 hours sleep.
Now, this is not a very good situation in my line of work.
Let's imagine I'm pushing a packet of pills towards a customer:
Me: Take these... These are gooooood...
*nods earnestly with bloodshot eyes and slightly-crazed grin*
Customer: Uh huh... erm... okay...
*nervous chuckle*
You know what? I think I'm actually feeling better already. So, uh, maybe I'll just, uh, mosey on home and take some vitamin C? Yeah, thanks anyway. Bye.
*quickly shuffles out the door*
Yup, not good for business at all...
