Brittany,
I don't know if we'll actually have anything for you to do tomorrow. I was hoping we could meet to decided what was the best fit for you and for us. Is this something you want to do on a long term basis or are you looking for a few hours to satisfy community service? Either way we need to meet and talk to set this up. As I previously mentioned I'm in the store from 1:00 - 4:00 pm tomorrow and look forward to seeing you during that time.
