anonymoose_au10:43pm: Well, damn, I did move out all my Screenhunter screenshots a few weeks back, along with my older Sims saves, but I've only got like 10Gb free on my laptop and according to the internet I need more than that - may 40Gb? I don't know if I can manage that but I'm going to have to do something because all my games are lagging like whoa, I could barely play American Truck Simulator.
I'm a bit confused also because according to Task Manager and if I'm reading it right (and possibly I'm not?) it seems to be indicating that I've got like 15 tabs open on Firefox, except...I don't? Maybe it's the number of processes it's using, not that I actually know what a process even means LOL.
Oh boo, I just realised I forgot to claim my Sims 4 reward for the Christmas event, I'm gonna run out of time. I guess I'll pop back in quickly before going to bed, that being the case I better get a hurry on.
So back to work today! It started off a bit unfortunately as it's that time o' the month and my guts were irritated this morning so I almost had a freak out on the bus. Luckily I was able to call Mum and make the trip. On arrival it was all hands on deck as we worked to clear the returns, as I mentioned the Library software set all the due dates a couple of days after re-opening so there wasn't as much panic as last year, plus the people who came in to clear the chutes put the items in the courier crates so at least the chute wasn't completely overflowing or anything. On the other hand, it seems there was a slight glitch and some patrons got emails saying items they'd returned long ago were no super overdue. Weird!
The magazines also came in today! Plus I was able to make a new vendor in the Library software so now I can re-add magazines that we're now getting from a different supplier. We haven't had the magazines delivered for like two weeks so there's a lot to go through!
So I had an hour of returning items in the morning and then I had a desk shift later in the afternoon, however I didn't get a chance to return many things because a lady who I helped just before Christmas was back. She's trying to get a new Indian passport on behalf of someone which is a very involved process which is a pain in the ass. Like I thought I'd helped her get everything done the last time, but apparently not. And even after helping her today it was still not correct? Since the lady was at the counter asking for help when I was heading home. I hope she won't be back again, because honestly I don't know what more can be done.
Whoops I've just noticed the time! I'm on the closing shift at work tomorrow so I can start a bit later, but still I better dash!
Goodnight!
