Update on charity shop volunteering (4)

I still volunteer at the charity shop every Monday. I don't really do Fridays anymore, but a few times the day when I work there has been changed around, because either I'm busy, or another volunteer is.

This is what I've been doing at the shop lately:

- Tidying the bookshelf
- Cleaning up the carpet
- Tidying up the scarf and glove box
- Making the other boxes neater
- Making sure the umbrellas donated are not broken
- Tidying up the shelf by the shoe rack
- Arranging the shoes on the rack
- Putting clothes on hangers before they're priced
- Putting aside spare hangers on the rails
- Making sure clothes don't fall off the hangers
- Eating biscuits
- Drinking tea
- Getting things out of the windows for customers

Did I mention in an earlier post, that once I cleaned some metal containers with silver-cleaning fluid in the shop? It was very satisfying because I could see the stains coming out as I rubbed the items with the cloth.

I like working at the shop because I can always see the difference when I leave. And each time there is something different to do.
