I don't want Liz to crash

That's why I'm so worried about her. It's easy to fall asleep while driving, especially if you haven't gotten any sleep in the past 24 hours. I'm glad she got home safe today, but I'm sill worried.

Iīve found that itīs much easier for me to fall asleep when I drive my
motorcycle!

Crazy, but itīs true! When Iīm just cruising along on a straight road, the wind is warm... Itīs so easy to close my eyes then and just let the
bike ride with
me.
Much more dangerous than if Iīm in my car, donīt know why this is but it has happened. Well, I havenīt fallen asleep while riding, but Iīve rested my eyes and when I opened them Iīve ridden almost 100 meters! Alot can happen in a 100 meters.

That's WAY more dangerous than falling asleep in a car

Must be a nice feeling to fall asleep on a motorcycle without crashing though.
I've crashed a few times on my motorcycle, but never from falling asleep

Thatīs just the thing. Itīs so nice to close my eyes and tilt my head down just a bit and just listen to the engine and feel the road underneath. But oh, too dangerous to do often and I donīt allow myself to do it much. Maybe once a year and only under perfect circumstances and if I feel like it. And I barely do it even then because I canīt stop thinking about what could happen...

Me too. When I had just gotten the one I have now I fell over when I stopped on a small hill because I wasnīt yet used to the suspension.

It's a really bad idea to fall asleep on a motorcycle. As relaxing as it is, I wouldn't do it anyway. Anything could happen, things can go wrong, even when it seems perfect...

I remember once I crashed into a mailbox. Another time I fell trying to turn on a curve. My motorcycle also randomly turned off at one point while I was riding and I fell. Luckily I've never been seriously injured

But if itīs the battery it shouldnīt turn itself off when you drive it. I spoke to my mechanic about that and he said that even if the battery crashes the vehicle doesnīt stop when itīs running. It must be something else.

That sounds like the alternator. It is what charges up your battery when the engine is running. The electronics on your bike run off the battery, and if the alternator is not keeping it charged, it will eventually die, and your engine with it. If the battery was dead after the engine died, that is definitely the problem.

Out of seventy planograms? Eight. Chemicals is FILTHY, ironically. When they cleared the shelves for us, they spilled so much on the floor that we kept sliding around, even after we wiped it up. We're not allowed to use any of the cleaner to clean it up, either. The shelves were coated in sticky and slimy substances, people threw food in the back of the shelves, and we had to clean every bit of it up. I had to replace like five shelves because they were rusted. Bleach was everywhere, and a ton of bottles busted.

Short on time. A lot of work goes into maintaining a store. We have to switch things up and set things just so at the whim of the bigwigs up at corporate.
Who, by the way, apparently have to idea what the sizes of their products are. How am I supposed to fit a three and a half foot broom onto a peg with six inches of leeway to let it hang?! we have to rearrange things in order to make them fit, and that takes even longer. Sometimes I wonder if they just slap some numbers and squares together and go "Yeah, that looks good. Let's go home."

Bosses usually don't do too much as the employees. They're buy trying to keep the store successful and making sure everything is in order. But they should at least know thier own inventory!

There's a lot of mental work that goes into being a boss, but if your specific job is to design a display that looks good and can entice customers into buying your product, you kind of need to make sure things aren't bunched up in one area.
