Our District Manager, Darren, our Area Manager Daniel and 2 MTs came to visit the store on Thursday. I was so excited because Darren was going to finally get to meet our wonderful kiddos and see everything I had been doing around the store- and then we had to run into trouble. The babysitter we set up to watch the boys turned out to be a WITCH and there was no other way for me to get the store prepared and work our usual schedule. Not only was I merchandising but doing freight as well since our girl is on vacation. After the babysitter made me feel like a horrible mother, I called my mom and she said well why don't you call Kathy and see if she can watch the kids until Saturday and then I will bring them to you on Saturday afternoon. So Josh called Kathy and on Wednesday (the day before Darren came) I met Kathy and Jim in Atlanta. I got back to work at 2 and got to work. We worked all day Wednesday and at 3:00 on Thursday Darren got here! I LOVE Darren- he is amazing and we get along so well, so I was really looking forward to this visit. Although I was a little worried if he would like the way I do things, he loved it. He said I do an amazing job and said our store was the best in the Atlanta Region, well a tie with one of the other stores. While we were having one of our talks, I asked for his complete honest opinion of what I needed to work on because I love doing this job and want to make sure I am doing the best. He said he was very proud of me and that I was doing a great job. He even said, "I wish that you were more in Atlanta so you could travel to all the stores and be in charge of all their merchandising." I was like oh my gosh I would LOVE that, but he said he doesn't want us out of Augusta quite yet. So I told him if he ever needed me to go to any stores I could. That put an idea in his head, and so now I am going to the Mall of Georgia Monday and Tuesday to work in that store! Bad news is I don't get my babies back until Tuesday afternoon; good news my District manager is proud of me and thinks I am good enough to help other stores! I am so super excited!
