Work environments are funny that way I have worked in ssome great environment that made me feel sad when I had to leave etc, but know there are most likely other places that will give you that same feeling. Keep working and getting your expierence up and what not wether or not you like the other place as much as you did at toys r us that way when a position opens up at toys r us, they will have hard time saying no and not keeping you on full time....

i looked on their website. they are still hiring for permanent positions. that hurts even more. and i told them pretty much daily how much i enjoyed working there, they were well aware of that. i even told them that i was enjoying it so much, i would do it for free.

they are the only toy store here. the next one is an hour and a half away.

i really enjoyed working so closely with the customers. that's what i was doing all day. helping customer after customer after customer. sometimes i had two or three customers at a time. and always took care of all of them. while other team members told customers they were getting the item from the back and then never returned. and then i foudn those customers who had been waiting for 45 minutes, and had them taken care of in three minutes. i had a lot of extremely happy and grateful customers. and they let the supervisors and managers know too. but it all didn't matter. no good deed goes unpunished.

i don't think i want to go back to work. i think i'd rather go back to being a homemaker and take care of home and kids. my husband is not cut out for that anyway.

this was such a horrible experience.

thank you for your suggestions though.

Just beyond the door he'll find her
Taking her hand he softly says

For the first time you can open your eyes
And see the world without your sorrow
Where no one knows the pain you left behind
And all the peace you could never find
Is waiting there to hold and keep you
Welcome to the first day of your life

Just open up your eyes as I lay you down tonight
Safe on the other side
No more tears to cry
