Yesterday would have actually been pretty quiet were it not for one very odd yet very stress inducing interaction. Important info: I was working yesterday at a different store than the one where I had the smelly feet interaction with the woman who harangued me and threatened to have me kicked out. All that said, I received a call from a manager at that store asking for me by name, asking for my boss's phone number and saying they're "sending someone over." They didn't specify who.

My first thought was that woman actually made good on her threat and this was to make it official. The next thought involved Walmart employees moonlighting as process servers and I'm the lucky guy getting sued. It was a extremely weird turn of events.

After talking with my boss, who talked with the manager in question, I learned that the "someone" (Actually, multiple someones.) that was sent over to me was a customer asking for me specifically. I helped them as they came and everything was kosher. The reason a manager was involved with the phone call and wanted my boss's number was to push for me to be somewhat exclusive to their particular store. So, they want me for their own, the store I just started covering wants me for their own and the store I started my job at wants to keep me. I'm in the middle of a turf war where I'm the "turf!"

Good sales the past two days. Hopefully Saturday continues the trend!
