a little happy post here. my store had a popup party today and i'm surprised to say that we killed it and had so much fun the entire time?? i've seen a lot of terrible things about the popups so i was pretty mortified to learn about it today, but my SM got people to come in for just the hour and she got us pizza and a cake. we cranked the music, had 3 people on bar, 2 going on reg, 2 CS, and 2 people in the lobby (one greeting and handing out samples, one sleeving and calling out drinks at the end of the bar). it ran so smoothly and we were all smiling, laughing and even DANCING the whole hour? also, completely smashed it with 132 in the first 30 mins and 98 in the last 30 mins. just really loved being a partner today despite the chaos.
