The Cancer research shop where I volunteer has been refurbished and it was the first day of opening. The place looks much nicer and the till has been re-sited in a much better position.
All the customers were coming in saying how lovely it looked.
It did BUT, as we know everything doesn’t always go smoothly. The till wouldn’t work. It had been moved form one side of the shop to the other. Lights were on but it wouldn’t function. Jack called Head Office as soon as someone would answer. They would get someone out “within the next 48 hours! “! What?! So, I had to write down everything I sold and with all the bought in goods, including even the cards for 99p, I had to write their individual 5 figure code down! A busy day.
The engineer/technician arrived in the afternoon and played around with it for an hour and a half , getting in my way and then declared that he couldn’t fix it. He sent for a new one to couriered and he would fit it if it arrived by 4pm. It didn’t.
