Just Another Day at Work **Every day is different. It's full of surprises and unexpected things. It's waiting to unfold.** Happy Tuesday! I started my day with a cup of coffee, a biscuit and paracetamol. My migraine started yesterday again and until now I can't get rid of it. It's the right eye especially the socket feels terrible so I was hoping this morning after taking paracetamol that I will get better.

My two bosses came to the shop early in the morning just to bring me some more rugs to sort and display. They bought me Ibuprofen from the chemist after knowing about my migraine. They told me that's better than paracetamol. They told me I could just ring them and let them know so I could just rest if I'm not well. But I want to work. Also, they ask if I eat and to be honest I didn't have time to eat in the morning that's why I brought my cup with me and a box of biscuits because I can't take medicine on my empty stomach. They left after that and to my surprise, my other boss comes back with a sandwich. He told me to eat it and go.

I'm really lucky to have such nice bosses. They treated me well from the beginning and they looked after me too. That's why it's just right that I do my job well. I love doing what I'm doing. And I love dealing with customers. Spending a Penny It wasn't busy the first couple of hours but I catch up. Then a man in his 40s on his mobility scooter comes into the shop and I greeted him with a big smile and help him get sorted with the rug he needs. He wants a 6×4 for his living room and we have one on offer at £25 which is great. After some selection, he finally got what he wanted. ***And while his handling the cash I saw the pee starting to drip from his seat down to the floor.*** He made a trail to the carpet and right outside he must be able to release it all. He made a yellow puddle outside. I didn't say anything because I know there must be something wrong with him.

So I send my boss this photo to ask how can I clean it or is there anything at the back that I can clean it with and if not they can bring something when they come. I'm more concerned about the pee outside as some shoppers might slip or slide into it especially kids that running about. The cleaner is not about at that time. So I'm keeping an eye outside and finally, when I see the very nice lady cleaner, I told her about it and she clean up the ones outside the shop. She even gave me a can of carpet cleaner for the inside and she provided me with a mop. She wants to do it but I insist to do it because it's just outside the shop her job really. She even came back and gave me an air freshener because she can smell the pee still. She's very nice and helpful. I successfully clean it but it marks just waiting to dry up and surely my boss will sort it out for me. And today even what had happened I still bought and was able to hit my target.

If I get mad and take the man peeing in the shop and me cleaning after it negatively then I couldn't probably hit my target. There are things I cannot control so I can only control how I respond to them. I can't blame the man because he didn't mean to do it for sure. He must have felt bad himself. And also because of my bosses kindness to me that morning, I was able to pass it on. **So at the end of the day, it was a Great Tuesday for me! How about you? How's your day?** Thank you for reading.
