This week I got to do something new. We have these special bags of dog food called "Redford". Redford dog food is only sold at Pet Supplies Plus so it really is our food. Some people are put on Redford to sell it. I found out that I was put on Redford but first I had to do all this paperwork to learn about it and what makes it so great. After I did all of that, I had to try and get people to switch their food and buy Redford. After ten minutes, I sold two bags of Redford to two different people and let me tell you, I felt so accomplished. At six o' clock that night, my manager told me to go do aisles so I only had about 15 minutes left at that point. Within those fifteen minutes, I sold another three bags of Redford which is really hard to do because honestly no one wants to switch their dog food. Then I went to aisles, which I love doing because I honestly still struggle with where things are. It was a great experience to do and next week I get to be on Redford twice!
Also this week, I had an evaluation with my manager and she told me things I am good at and things I can do better for the company and for life overall actually. Let me tell you right now, I know of a million and ten things I can do better. I'm going to be honest with you, I had a really bad attitude problem-not towards the customers of course. When I get stressed out though or I don't feel good, it gets bad. My manager honestly told me I need to work on my attitude and it will make life and working so much easier. She also told me not to stress because MOST (but not all) customers will understand so that everything is done right. I have been told not to stress a lot but it really helps to hear it from my manager for me to just take my time.

This is Shelby. She is the assistant manager at the store I work at. Let me tell you, she may deny it, but she is one of the biggest sweethearts you will ever meet. I never have a dull day working with her. Shelby is the absolute greatest.
