Wow, it's been a while. Well, i'm certainly not in London anymore, although that does make me a little sad. I really did like it over there, as happy as I was to be coming home. I cried like a baby when we got here. It was not one of my most stable moments. Oh well. Since I've been back I haven't really done much. Mostly just hang around at home. I've worked some, but not a lot. I work 7 of the next 8 days though. And I'm getting written up. Oh yeah. I'm so VERY impressed with that. See, I get a discount, so one day I went with my mom and we got coffee. I got my discount, but my mom ended up paying because I went to find my sister. So our AM, Erika, pulled me aside and was like, well, you have to hand over the money, your mom can't pay. So I said, yeah, I'll remember that for next time. So yesterday I went in and got coffee with Ashley. This time, I gave my card, I handed over the money(which was Ashley's, but I only have to hand the money over, right? No)So I was waiting for my drink, and the schedule was sitting on the counter, so I asked if it was final. Erika said no, but you know, your availability is very limiting. Which is very weird to me because before I left for England, I told Nicole I would have full availability(Nicole was our old manager) and apparently I have no availability on Monday, after 5 on the rest of the week, and full on Satruday and after 1 on sunday. The only day that was right was Sunday. So while I'm back there telling Erika this, she pulls out the whole discount thing and how I have to pay and that I should know this because it's in my training manual, so we will "Be having a documented coaching conversation" which means i get a permanent stain on my file. Which I don't really care about because I don't plan on being with Starbucks for the rest of my life, but still, I'm going by what people have told me. When I got hired, I was told that as long as I was around, it didn't matter who paid. Then Erika told me that I had to hand over the money, so I did. It jsut makes me angry. And, I checked my book, and it doesn't say anything about my discount. I'm sure it's in one of our manuals, but we have I think.......13 or 14 manuals, and I do not have time to read them when I'm only working 3 hours a night thanks to my fucked up availability. SO angry. Why? I messed up, and I don't do that often, so when I do, it pisses me off. Also, I don't like getting in trouble, and I know I'm going to beat myself up about this for a while, and that makes me even more angry. Argh. And the bonus for this? I think I work with Erika tomorrow night. At least Ralph will be there for a while. I don't want to get fired for being bitchy to her. Because I need a job. maybe I'll go work at Meggy's store. So yeah. Anywho, time to stop bitching and go dry dishes!
