Just like any other day
Today was just like any other day. I got up at 5.20am to start my day. It generally takes me 40mins to wake up before I push myself out of bed to prepare for the day ahead. I manage to leave around 6.30am and make my way to work and hope my parking space is vacant.
There is not usually a day that goes by that someone manages to injure themselves due to repetition and general distractions of others who brighten the day, though they are generally not seriouse injuries. Even though we are expected to get out 32 garments every hour we persist to try our best at it for the first 3 hours and then mischief usually takes over. It becomes almost like April fools only constantly thinking of new trickery.
First the person leaves for a toilet break then they must be on guard for when they come back and just expect anything. Whether it is hand cream all over the buttons they are sewing or on the garments or the pen they write with. There has been sleeves sewn together with there jackets they have left. Or button sewn on the back of the jackets. Cottons are cut, bobbins taken out which results in a Loud screaming noise from the sewing machine once they try to sew and drink bottles are hidden. To think all this goes on and we still manage to get out around 200 garments if not more.
