Whenever a cashier asks me &#x27;How are you&#x27;, I reply &#x27;Oh you know, it&#x27;s my <i>DayOfWeek</i>&#x27;.<p>Most people that never spent time in retail are confused by this. &#x27;It&#x27;s Wednesday for everyone, what do you mean by it is <i>your</i> Wednesday?&#x27;<p>If you spend time working a 35 hr&#x2F;week job (just little enough to not qualify for benefits) you know that your weeks and weekends can be totally different from the rest of the world&#x27;s, your family&#x27;s, and your co-worker&#x27;s weekly plan. Oh, and that changes from week to week too.<p>Coordination of weeks and the days of therein has to start from a labor perspective. If you want to buy groceries or shoes from a store, it has to have a cashier, and that cashier&#x27;s family and friends have to understand that the cashier&#x27;s life is scheduled differently while in that job.
