Another Tale From Reitmans

Well, I went in tonight for my shift at 5:30, and everything was progressing as a Reitmans shift usually does, when suddenly we began to smell smoke. It smelled good at first... like a campfire... but then it got stronger.. and stronger. We looked all over the store and out back and stuff, but there was no fire. Eventually, someone from Nubody's came over and told us that someone had thrown a lit cigarette into the theatre's garbage dumpsters, which had caused them to catch on fire. The firefighters came and put it out and checked over the store. However, in the midst of this, my asthma started acting up. I was all lightheaded and wheezing and coughing and couldn't breathe. Mum came to bring me my puffer, and Donna sent me home with her. So, I only ended up working for 2 hours, but I got paid for my full 4 hour shift! Hurrah! That seems to be the only upside, though... I'm still very shaky and my heart's beating like nuts. Hopefully, I will feel better in the morning. I'm going to go try to sleep it off...
