What Is That They Say About First Impressions?

I arrived promptly for the new job. When I went to open the door to the employee entrance, I triggered the alarm system. Turns out all the cars behind the store didn't belong to anyone in the store. At least an employee arrived before the cops. I was having visions of spending my morning at the station getting things sorted out and the company deciding I wasn't worth it.

Today's greeting, "Welcome, Karen. Here you had a rough start with the alarm."

As for my issues with having a master's and working in retail, there is someone who works in the department who has a PhD. Oh, and he's not the manager.

Overall, a good start to a new job.
