Sometimes, you are your own illustration.
Yesterday was a rather unique day for me. It was the first time I had worked an opening shift at American Eagle and had to show up early to clean the store. I set my alarm the night before to ensure I had plenty of time to get ready for the day and make it to work on time. Still, I ended up racing out the door and arriving just in time for my shift. That morning was rough; 6 hours of work and a fairly busy day at the store (schools were closed due to the intense cold, I'd guess people came to the mall to pass the time). By the end of my shift that afternoon I was completely drained, and I really didn't know why. I'd worked in the store on far busier days, but that day had taken everything out of me.
