I had a dream that I needed to get a second job so I got a second at Michael’s, in real life I used to work there. In real life, our store was originally at a small location and then we moved to a larger store back in 2017. In my dream, for some reason our store was back at the old store but the ceiling was very high up and the whole store was slightly bigger and we had so many registers; they were set up like cubicles. There was also an entrance at the back of the store to a mall but it looked more like a warehouse than a mall. On the wall there was this giant display that had different compartments on it and there was a short stage protruding from it, and there were actors on the stage and in the small compartments and they were performing beauty and the beast, which is one of my favorite musicals. My theatre rival from high school was playing Belle and I was really pissed off about it. My castmates from my community theatre groups were working with me. This one woman came up to my register to buy a science fair display board and some markers, she was confused about the price, her total came to $13.46 . For some reason I started talking to her about how I worked at Michael’s years ago, but I had to come back to get extra money and that I had a 9-5 job at a pharmaceutical company. We got into deep conversation and when I looked at the screen on the register, her total came to $980.
