Speaking of Confused

After 22 years of making schedules and putting in hours, I was late checking out on Sunday.
My schedule was 10:15 to 4:45. Not a big deal.
However I went in on time, Proud of myself for having it together and moving quickly.
Time got away, left my mind, Left me brainless.  I suddenly thought OK I get off at 5:15. So at 4:57, I am pushing my cart back. I see one of my early shift ladies, she is off, apron is off and I am just leaving. Hummmmm.
Maybe she sold out.
Then as I round the corner I see a totally bare area. All carts are clean and put away. Suddenly I realize, "Oh Crap I am late, I was supposed to be out of here at 445. OH My!!!! Chrystal has no patience for stupidity.,
That is exactly what I was stupid. I said, I should write a book on "Brain takes a holiday"
I could not clean my cart, I could not put away stuff, I had to clock out and run.
Now keep in mind I do not mind working off the clock, I have for years. But California law forbids it and I try to be a good employee.
I blew it, I blew it bad. I got 12 minutes over plus nothing was accomplished.
Oh yeah Gary, will take care of my mistakes but I wrote my time in as 457. 12 minutes later than I should be.
I will take my lumps with my error.
Our hours are on 15 minute increments. I have never worked on 15 minute increments and now I must retrain my brain to concentrate.
I know I am a good sales demonstrator. I Love the people I encounter and I love to talk about my product.
However please keep my memory (brain power)  in your prayers.
I detest blowing it as I am a perfectionist and this tortures me to be wrong.
Tomorrow I am writing my schedule on my hand. On my arm, I have a copy in my little sales floor bag. I should be good but my quesiton is, Why did no one come get me? I guess they thought I had been there long enough to know the rules.
Oh I guess not, and I am not happy about my error.
