I've decided one of my favorite things about living in Kansas City is the River Market. I've been a few times now and I always leave happy. My first Friday here, Craig and I went down for some dinner and had some really awesome Chinese food. Today Sarah and I went down to check out the actual market, and it was so cool. (and made me feel slightly like I was back in the markets of Kenya, only much smaller) It's all open-air, and there's all kinds of fresh produce, for great prices. Today I got a bunch of yukon gold potatoes, two red onions, and a green pepper for $2.50. That's crazy awesome! Also, there is a place that just has tubs of spices, like every spice you could ever need, and some loose leaf teas. It smells amazing, and makes me want Indian food.
Also, today was my second day of work. Tuesday I went in and filled out paperwork, then got thrown right in and learned the register and checked a bunch of people out. I also got to use the scan- gun to put things back in their proper place on the shelves. It was pretty sweet. The girl that's training me wasn't there today, so I pretty much just put back returns and straightened things up today. I also got to use one of the radios for the first time, which was pretty sweet and definitely makes things easier since I can just ask where something is to help a customer and one of my coworkers can just tell me through my earbud. I think I'm gonna like this job, though I've already seen a bunch of things I want, which could be bad.
Wowzers! That's a REALLY good deal at the River Market! I'm glad work is going well so far! That's awesome you get a radio+ear piece.
