2 shifts at the sort for Borders so far. Very exciting.

I've shelved/sorted the following stuff, in this order

erotica (lol yes, the first thing I had to shelf when i entered the store was pretty much porn lol, funny section), then religion (yeah, porn to buddhism then taoism then iching then judaism then holocaust (yes holocaust is under religion)), then paperchase which is stationery and stuff and cups and yes, we sell Stretchy Goldfish.

Then yesterday did Travel, then sorted some Comics (really cool section, I wanna get my hands on the Calvin and Hobbes stuff), then a really brief stint in section C before I went to uni. Section C is Crime, True Crime, Sci-Fi, Horror and Romance lol. Fantasy books come under Sci-fi, so Harry potter has science fiction on it's sticker. =P

It's a lot of manual labor as well lol it's pretty cool everyone is doing it, managers not exempt! The store GM was down there with us moving boxes off the palettes into piles to be distributed throughout the store. I have like cuts down my arm from moving boxes lol it's bizarre, they don't hurt but it's like I have battlescars or some crap.

Very exciting. Still need hard hat and vest to get to the store. First day to obtain those was a mission lol but I know what to do now at least.

And yes. Borders has a section for incest.
