Cupcake Post #3

Hey Interns!

This week while interning at Cupcake Couture was mostly the same as last week. I worked there on Tuesday from 2:30-5:30 and on Saturday from 11-5.  My class schedule is so packed those are the only times  I can be there. While working at Cupcake this week I practiced making transactions more and keeping our products stocked in the store. But what happened more this week than last week was that multiple times this week I had to go to the display window and pull clothes from out there for customers. This is not at easy task. To get to the display window I have to basically throw myself over this wall and squeeze through this extremely narrow spot then walk around all of the mannequins and decorations making sure not to knock anything over.  And this is all being done in the window so I'm sure the people walking around outside or the people in the coffee shop across the street loved this little performance. But I am a people pleaser and like to make the customers happy.

But Tuesday are still pretty slow when I am there so luckily I manage to get some homework done when no one is in the store. I like working Saturdays more because it's just more fun and I get to see more people.  So far so good while working at Cupcake. I haven't messed up or made any huge, life altering mistakes fortunately.  I have got more into a rhythm when making sales which is good.  I still really like working there and my boss just gave me my internship project that's due in a couple weeks.  I have to go to 4 other stores on 3rd Street and compare that store to Cupcake. Doesn't sound to bad. Can't wait to start it.

So that's what is good in the life of an intern at Cupcake :)
