Spelling, etc.

Nine times out of ten, I am a phenomenal(and yes I just edited this cuz I spelled it wrong. Go me) speller. Words like maroon give me trouble. I want to double the wrong letters. But many other "difficult" words are fairly simple to deduce. I would, however, like to apologize for the word that I am not sure I will spell correctly in the next little story. Not a story. More like life event? No, not that big. Meh. Whatever.

As many of you know, I am considered a "high potential lp supervisor". Besides jumping really high when asked, I'm not always certain what this means for me. Today, I helped at an inventory at another store. While we were most definitely over-staffed from the LP side of things, I caught my DLPM and started asking questions.

Note: I am a master fenagler.

So, I ask him what running an inventory from a DLPM perspective entails. And he wanted me to clarify. So I told him that I understood his role in a prep sense, but I wasn't sure I knew everything he did on the actual day of inventory. So we talked. And talked. And I said, "So, why couldn't someone like me run one?" There was a pause. So I added, "You know, like there's June or even September if you'd rather I wreck my own store on my first attempt." And he said, "You can take a June store." Then up walks another DLPM. And my DLPM says, "Ashlee is gonna run the Sussex inventory this June."

I am proud of myself. I think I can do it. I think it will make me all the more promotable. And I don't think there is another LPS in the company that will have this experience prior to being an LPM.

I'm also scared as hell. Not my store. Not my review. But my inventory? Ack!
