Second Day

Second Day April 21, 2014
Monday was my second day working with my mentor. My first priority when I got there was to figure out where everything went and remember the layout of everything. I needed to know this because thats what made things a little harder the last time I was there. I asked my mentor if I could look around a little bit and she said yes. When I was done and I thought I pretty much knew where most of the things went I went back to my mentor and asked what i needed to do and told me to make sure we had things in stock. She gave me a list of some of the things in the store and told me to check if we had it out on the floor and to see how much of it we had in the back. It was pretty easy to do because I knew where most of the things were on the floor and in the back. After I was finished with that I cleaned up some of the things in the back because it was a little messy. It wasn't really messy but it was in the way when I moved around back there. After I asked my what else she wanted me to do and told me to monitor the floor and help customers that needed help and at the same time make sure everything looked good and clean. I was kind of nervous that I had to help customers and answer their questions because i'm usually the customer and getting help from an employee and I have never been on the other side helping people. It felt a little weird at first but it was pretty easy because it wasn't complicated questions or anything it was simple like where was something and if it there was a sale. I was scared I wasn't going to be able to answer their question and I would have to ask my mentor and I would feel bad for asking for help to answer a question. For the rest of my time with my mentor I monitored the floor and was pretty cool and easy. I think the next time I come back I might ask if I could monitor the floor again to help with my shyness.
