[QUOTE="Abbey, post: 313929, member: 179"] Join the crowd.:angry: I know you are supposed to stimulate your mind to increase memory strength. I know one of my biggest challenges of the past year or so was memorizing the hundreds of codes that a grocery store uses. At first, I used a rather lengthy cheat sheet, but as time went on I could remember nearly all of them. Bananas - 2012. Lettuce - 4048. 5lb. back of onions that NEVER scan - 3924485409 Now, that being said, I don't even know my own cell number. I put a little sticky on the back of it. I still after a year struggle with my zip code. I reverse numbers a lot. Never used to do that. I'm always in the ballpark range, but not exact. My task now is to learn the lingo of this job. There are 4 pages of acronyms that they use all the time. It's like texting verbally. Go see LOD at A15 and find product 1-P1-a3 and report back to the NPA. Ummm...what the heck is a LOD? NPA? Can't they say...go find X product and tell Nancy what you find? I think it's a 50/50. It could be age or it could be medical. If you find out the answer let me know, but send it in an email or I'll forget.:raspberry-tounge: Abbey [/QUOTE]
