Best job yet.
It's really nice to go to work and genuinely smile the majority of the time I'm there. To genuinely enjoy the company of my co-workers. It's nice that the shifts don't drag unbearably and that the thought of work doesn't make me wonder if suicide would be a better option. It's nice that the customers have jobs and showers and don't abuse me because they brought their movies back late and got fees. It's nice that the whole computer system is really efficient and consistently works properly. It's nice that there's a store manager who isn't the owner and who works there full time as opposed to popping in once a week or so. It's nice that we can order the intelligent or foreign language or arthouse films because people in this area can actually comprehend them. It's nice that there's a really good sushi place just down from the store as opposed to McDonald's. It's nice that we do stocktake every quarter instead of once in four years (which only happened after we, the staff, harrassed the owner into organising it). It's nice to have a boss who has both a normal, functional brain and a sense of basic employee rights. It's nice that we don't have unpaid breaks that we can't even take. It's nice that we get proper public holiday rates. I never thought that a job in the EXACT SAME INDUSTRY could be so unbelievably better. It's just so nice :)
