It's been a little over a month since I've had gainful employment and here are a few things that I have learned.
1. Magic, as it turns out, continues to be very cool.
2. So does having a steady paycheck.
3. People really will haggle over anything if you give them the chance. I don't know if that's just specific to working in a magic shop, because I really don't see people haggling over things at the grocery store or anything, but it definitely happens. Which is unfortunate, because
4. I'm still struggling with methods to put my foot down that aren't just a smiling all charming until they get the hint.
5. Somehow Unseen Servants, despite that they are unseen, have very distinct personalities? Benedict is my favorite, but don't tell Rodrigo or Esmerelda.
6. The ombre potion wall is more than just pretty and it's real important to remember which potion does what and is where. It's also real important to not knock any of them over. Not that I have! But I've seen some close calls and it's stressful every time.
7. Prestidigitation? Super helpful.
8. The bakery across the way from the shop has really good cinnamon rolls.
Anyway, those are my life lessons, some more valid than others. If you want to see me in action, you should come to Gilmore's and buy some things in honor of 1 and 2 on this list.
