Ever Counting

 I know it happens like...twice a year.

But having to do the live pet inventory is still an annoying thing.

Like...we count the animals constantly why do we have to do an 'official' count? *exhales* 

In any case.

Tonight was our live pet inventory count.

Which thankfully I didn't have to work an entire shift today.

No, I was only scheduled to come in for a couple of hours after we closed.

No customer interaction. Just counting animals.

Perfect. 

And surprisingly....we got the count done really fast this year.

I mean...part of it could be that we're still really low on animals as we're still trying to get our cages to the point where they're not empty two days after we put new animals into them. (Yes people are still buying pets like crazy it's weird.) 

But with our breeders unable to keep up with the demand....

There were definitely less creatures to count this time around.

Like usually I feel like we have around 7,000-10,000 animals in the store (most of that is fish and crickets)

But tonight we only counted around 4,000. 

Still alot of creatures. But not as much as previous counts.

And it probably helped that I went straight to work on counting and was moving faster so we were able to get it all done faster.

But yah. An hour and a half.

Not bad for having to come into work on a Sunday.

Until you next find these words;
I'll be watching the leaves.
Enjoy the day!
