4:45am

   It was dark when I got to work this morning, but people were already lined up to come in right as the store opened. By the time we opened the doors the line went around to the back of the building. I think about 200 people came trampling in. Only one incident today when a woman was carrying something she wanted to buy and another person took it out of her hands. It was a stupid $6 item. And I'm just going to take a moment to be amazed at the amount of cash people were carrying on their persons today. It's great not to be using credit cards and all, but no one should see that wad.
   I was incredibly impressed and proud of my staff today. Their energy level was infectious, and they kept people moving as quick as possible. We got a lot of complements today about how well run and organized we were. So nice to hear that as lines grow out to Zimbabwe!
   A woman found $112 in the parking lot and turned it in. Another moment that restored my faith in humanity. She was really hoping that the person would realize they lost it in our parking lot and come back. I thought that was really nice. Well, the person came in to claim it. I told her about the nice woman who brought it in. The claimer said that it looked like she took some for herself. What a bastard. Maybe that was all that was left when she found it. If she was going to take some,. why not just keep it all for herself, ya know?
