Fun Filled Training :D

This evening, I had my first week of training at Lush. With normal jobs, it is the most boring part of getting the job, but lets face it- Lush isn't any other job!
We got to play with the Christmas stock and get shown how to demo products. This has to be one of the most fun jobs I have ever had, and I haven't even properly started yet! The rota is only one week in advance, so I won't have major problems with concerts etc, and as they have so many staff that can only work weekends, it means that I don't have to work Sundays. I can wear my crucifix, and as long as it's black, we have the freedom of wearing what we like, and adding colours to our outfits.
We are celebrated for being different, and having passions in our lives, which is such a nice change from my past jobs.
Another added bonus of working in Lush is that all the people are friendly and nice, as it is their job to be. Lush won't hire a grumpy type, making your job easier. Making friends is so much easier there, as frankly everyone is as bonkers as me, and all have their passions! There are so many people in the arts there as well, I feel that I can  identify with so many people :D
I cannot wait to have training next week, so I can go through all the main products, but also to see all the other 'newbies' again! We already have a Blackberry group going atm! Sad or what eh :P
We are getting our staff boxes soon, full of products that are new and/or upcoming, which is rather exciting, and get our 50% (yes, 50%) staff discount on the 25th of October, and also an evening where the newbies, plus some friends and family can have the shop to ourselves, and all get the 50% staff discount.

Let me know if you fancy coming along ;) x

<--- The store I will be working at- slightly different layout now :)
