the day from hell

Today was well awful. 6am me and Amanda walk onto the line and spend the next hour and a half on a elevated platform thing scrapping off chocolate molds and taking them out to be replaced by new ones since we are switching from chocolate to vanilla. Then we cleaned and boxed a few of the bars until the wrapping machine took a giant crap and resulted in us having to unwrap a few hundred miss-wrapped bars. Then giving up the wrapping machine our supervisors decided to just have us put all the bars coming out of the cooling tunnel onto this giant table, which we filled about 30/40 bars wide and 10 bars high. It was insane. Then the wrapping machine fixed, we had to empty the table which took an hour. Then we got to go on break and sit for the first time. Then we unwrapped more bars b/c the wrapping machine wasn't actually fixed. Then we filled the table again and emptied it again and unwrapped all those bars we just sent through the wrapping machine. Then the machine broke real bad at 1pm and they just told us to leave and me and Amanda went to McDonald's for 49cent cones to make the day better. It worked.

Ok all of that was really shitty, but there was some fun stuff, especially since me and Amanda were really overtired and prone to hysterical laughter. This then resulted in us trying to stifle our giggles when Leslie went crazy with rage and was cussing and yelling while sitting on the floor surrounded by bars and wrappers trying to fix things.
