This is absolutely awful and shocked me. They say they found him with her underwear in his possession. The fact that he kept her underwear is almost a close and shut case in my opinion. I've been following this story for awhile and originally I didn't know what the motive was or what triggered this until those two articles came out today. This wasn't an act of anger, this was a thrill kill. To me, the fact that he kept her underwear shows that he took thrill in killing her, as there is a pattern in people who murder and rape keep 'special' items belonging to their victims. IMO, that all points to that this kid would have murdered again if he had the opportunity.

Working at Target

A typical work day as a target cashier is standing at the register talking to customers and making sure their experience is great and giving them what they need out of their shopping time. I've learned to be fast and accurate. The management is very flexible and easy to deal with. They always make sure to acknowledge us when they notice that we are doing a great job. If it gets too slow during a given period of time, you are always welcome to cross train in other areas of the store. Co-workers are very nice. The most enjoyable part is getting to interact with all different kinds of people. 

The hardest part of the job i would say is having to borderline harass all the guest to sign up for a Target credit or debit card. It gets exhausting and I can only bare people giving me an adamant no so many times.

Self Control

I am horrible when it comes to procrastinating. Whenever I am studying or in the middle of writing a paper I always find something to distract me, usually online. Recently, I discovered an app called Self Control for the MAC.  You create a list of websites you want to block, set a timer for how long they should be blocked, and it goes into your computers backsystem and blacklists them. There is NO way to turn it off until the timer goes off. It is the BEST thing ever created.
