Warning more complain-y work stuff ahead. Skip if necessary.
Also: Had an hour long meeting with Matthew yesterday, one was scheduled for every shift supervisor, except since I was rocking the boat I got a super-special "state of the union" type one.
Apparently I sounded "angry and accusatory" when I left him the voicemail about the six hour gaps between my shifts which was ok with him on a personal level but he kept bringing up how he didn't want me taking out my anger on the other baristas or customers. Which is something I have never done so was a little lost there but I am making the worst assumption that someone complained. Bite me.
But basically I got to bring up my laundry list of every single reason why I hated the store and how the other shifts were definitely making my life way more hellish than it needs to be and who really cares if people actually shows up to their shifts on time and I am not Jason's damn keeper (Since I've known him the longest, read: not there when he flipped out, I officially got designated as the person who "should talk to him about his anger issues". How about no. I wasn't there.) and maybe two years is long enough to work for the company blah blah blah.
So yeah, was definitely less than fun. At least I got paid, and I got to blindside him with an actual list of things to answer the "Well is there anything else I can do for you?" question. He was packing up all his stuff and I think just saying it as some sort of closing final thing expecting me to say no. So he sits back down and tell him all of the things I was used to having as a support system at the old store and how those other spoiled shift bastards need to have some goddamn accountability as well because I'm tired of the one who gets a talking to every time I get upset because someone else is flagrantly not doing the job they're getting paid to do. And how about some sort of followup to the voicemails I leave you everyday yeah? Maybe letting me know that the douchebag who went to LA leaving me to two-man close two days in a row got some sort of verbal fucking reprimand at the least. Or that chick who got tried to get in a shouting match with me about how she wasn't going to scrub a toilet? Yeah, if you want me to sit down and play nice with people this game is going to be a bloody two-way street and I'm gonna hold you accountable too, you bastard.
