On Working At the Cleveland Museum Of Art Store

     Page Two Hundred Eighty-Seven.
     I still can't completely wrap my head around the fact that I work at the museum. Granted, I don't have enough hours and the pay isn't great, however, I am networking and that's exactly what I'm supposed to be doing right now. But also, the fact that I work in their store is amazing. It's kinda fancy and expensive. Please don't break anything.
     Last Sunday, our sales goal was an unrealistic $6600.00 while $4500.00 would have been much more attainable for a typical Sunday. As it was, we ended selling $10,100.00. Afterwards, we realized it was Labor Day weekend and it's the last week of a special exhibit on Yoga Art. So there you go. It's a modest-sized store, perhaps 1/2 the size of a Walgreen or CVS, but it can generate over $10,000 worth of sales in one day. And it's not even December yet, Lord help us. I'll bet you anything that we'll have 15 or even 20 thousand days in a couple of months. I sometimes feel like I work in Tiffany's.
