Bullet Your Day

I did this once before on a blog challenge.  Decided to do it again.  For starters, just to keep you in the know, I set up a swap at work so I could have a day off in the future for an important birthday party.

  • Wake up to alarm at 4:30 - after going to bed at about midnight.
  • Get out of bed
  • Put makeup on
  • Get dressed
  • Did hair
  • Brushed teeth
  • Kissed Ted goodbye
  • Read my text messages that were waiting for me
  • Replied to one text
  • Got in my car to drive to airport
  • Talked to BFF on the phone
  • Stopped at McDonalds for breakfast
  • Continued driving to airport, parked my car, got on bus to ride to terminal
  • Clocked in to work Emily's shift
  • Saw Marsan and her daughter in the bathroom.  Hugged her and chatted a bit.
  • Worked first flight
  • Ate some Easter breakfast with the other people working in the concourse that I have only worked in a couple of times and don't know hardly any of the people.  Need to get to know Candace better - she is freaking hysterical!!!
  • Worked flights two and then three
  • Clocked out
  • Picked up lunch at Greek Souvlaki and walked to my usual concourse and enjoyed lunch with my usual peeps on the day shift
  • Clocked back in to begin working for Maria for two hours
  • Worked flight four
  • Started working my own shift
  • Worked flight five
  • Saw my friend Patti at the airport.  She and I hugged and chatted for a bit at my gate before she had to leave and get on a plane.  She got first class - lucky girl!!
  • Had my lunch/dinner break.  Got Smash Burger.  I have now eaten nothing but fast food and junk all the day.
  • Worked flight six
  • Scanned boarding passes for a late arriving aircraft for passengers that missed their connections.  Hugged a cute girl who had just left her boyfriend and now had to wait another night before making it home.
  • Worked flight seven
  • Sat in the break room until time to go home
  • Waited at the bus stop
  • Realized I forgot to clock out, had to walk all the way back to the break room to clock out.  Clocked out and chatted with Jimmy for a bit.
  • Walked back out to the bus stop and rode the bus to the parking lot.
  • Drove home - exhausted.
  • Made it home safe and sound.  Had to unwind on the couch before heading to bed - oh yeah, and to write it all down on this blog post.
By the numbers:

  1. 16 hours 30 minutes from the beginning to the end at the airport
  2. 4 hours 15 minutes of sleep
  3. 3 different employees shifts covered, including my own
  4. 2 feet, 2 ankles, 2 knees all in painful and tired condition
  5. 11,571 steps recorded on my FitBit
  6. 2,646 calories burned
  7. 3 fast food meals eaten - Probably well over the number calories burned above
  8. 7 flights worked
  9. Approximately 975 passengers boarded on those flights

Happy Easter.
