This The Norm and I am Not Used to it?

Who earns more per year - a full-time MS IC, or a WNBA player?

I have mixed feeling about watching and supporting WNBA games, which are becoming more prevalent on network TV. I’m not liking what I’m seeing with the bullying of Caitlin Clark in the form of cheap, intentional, physical fouls, mimicking, ganging up on her, etc. When will the grudge... Continue Reading

Hate to Jinx It but I’m Having a Great Year

Not sure if it’s just that I’ve gotten “better” at it; that this is now a “must do” instead of a sideline hobby as it was in the past; or that the cosmic tumblers have aligned but I’m doing very well in shopping/merchandising this year. I’m sure you pros... Continue Reading

Rargirl and the Terrible Horrible Very Bad (Awful) no Good Shopping Day

Today I took on a little too much on my “day off” from my primary job and had some embarrassing mishaps. I booked myself very heavily in two suburbs 30 minutes away in opposite directions. First, I merchandised at 9 C stores and 4 G stores. I had a lunch time... Continue Reading

Customer Impact — Help, please!

I accepted a nicely bonused plush toy restocking. However, when I got to the store (“M”), they refused because my LOA was from a different chain (store “C”). While I don’t much mind not getting paid (they would not allow me to count), I had a 2nd assignment to do.... Continue Reading

Vape Sticker Merchandising
