At the Fantastic General Store, we do Inventory every year. Yes, that is Inventory with a capital I, because it’s an event that rivals Christmas in importance. Some departments even have Inventory multiple times a year. Nobody wants to find out the weapons section is missing a sword or a poleaxe. But Inventory, for as necessary as it is, isn’t fun. It’s not that it’s difficult per say. Counting items one by one isn’t hard. But it takes hours to do, and after a couple of hours of hearing the beeps of the scanners, you start to feel a little brain dead. So, if you hear a store is going to be having Inventory, be nice to the employees. Any inconvenience you feel due to Inventory, is probably going to pale in comparison to what they have to go through.
