Well it's two days down and I already have 4 hot glue gun burns on my hands. Also in these two days I have finished 3 1/2 mums and 2 garters. Yep, that's 12 hours of work. Not to mention the fact that the mums I start with have already been started and had about 4 hours of work put into them. What I get to do is put on all the custom pieces that customers want. They can add extra ribbons, "toys and trinkets" (toys being key chains and such and trinkets being little plastic emblems). Then in the flower area they can also add a teddy bear, garland in the shape of hearts, really anything they can think of. They pick everything out and put it in a bag then the bag come back to the back where I am (along with 2 other girls). We get the bag and start hot gluing....and gluing....and gluing. Honestly, it really is a lot of fun and the other girls are both really cool so the day flies by. I feet and legs hurt from standing and my arms hurt from them being stretched out in front of me all day but I'm still mobile so I guess I'm doing ok. Today was an incredibly long day: work 12-6, make dinner, then I made some bread. I was given a starter mix for some Amish Friendship bread and today was the day I was supposed to be baked. Tomorrow is going to be insanely long as well because I am crazy and agreed to sub (for 4 -year-olds) in the morning before going to the mum job. So even though I am still mobile today; tomorrow could quite possibly be a different story. We plan to take pictures of the mums soon so I'll post some....stay tuned.
