(no subject)
So yea I had a mostly good day today. Right towards the end of work however I just wanted to scream, which I actually did while driving home. I am just so tired of working with one of my managers. He is such a chauvinistic ass. He seems to think that no one is capable of their job, yet he's the one who half the time doesn't know how to do something or maybe it's that he doesn't want to I dunno. I dread shifts when I have to work with him because I just get so irritated by him and the way he treats me. For example, today one of the other managers asked that we count the tags in our quicktag machine for their inventory tonight. I didn't know how to get the container out of the machine and asked for help. He spilled one set of tags and said he wasn't sure how to get them out without spilling them like he had so I said ok and walked away. Then later when the other manager came in the three of us were standing there and I asked her how to do it so I could finish the task, he interrupts and goes, "Oh I figured out what I did wrong when I put it back in, I didn't hold down the top of the tube while trying to bring it out." WHAT?! then why didn't you show me how to do it so I could get the task done then? Needless to say, the task never got done because no ever ended up showing me how to do it. For another example, we have morning huddles before the store actually opens, usually just so we can get a feel for how the store is doing and receive any updates from corporate/other stores. They usually aren't vital meetings, today's certainly wasn't. Anyways, Lorraine and I were both clocked out on our lunch break while he called everyone up for the meeting. Neither of us went up there because of that fact, we were still eating. So he pages a second time, I WANT EVERY SINGLE ASSOCIATE UP HERE NOW! so we walk up there and he says, It's about time your an associate aren't you. I looked at him and said, "Yea and associate who is off the clock and was still eating thanks." Yea there was nothing said in that meeting that was worth me wasting the last 10 min. of my lunch. Then, I know I'm complaining a lot, but I have to get this out before I explode. I was finishing up the Betta water, I had maybe 10 left which would take less 5 min. Meanwhile he and another person were working on price changes across from me in the treat aisle. The other person couldn't find some things in the aisle so I walked across to help since I know the aisle like the back of my hand. I showed her where one thing was and then he pushes his way in and tells me, "Go and finish your bettas we have this under control." I wanted to hit him, I could sacrifice the minute that it would have taken to show her where the other two items were. It was at that point that I just wanted to say FUCK IT! I am so tired of your shit I'm going home now. That last twenty minutes was real painful for me.
Alright I feel much better now.
Alyssa's graduation is tomorrow night. I am so excited about that. I am so proud of her, and feel so old all at the same time lol!
Sarah's wedding is no longer going to be in September, which I think is good for them. His dad offered to pay for hall rental and catering if they would move it to next spring instead which was real nice of him. They quickly agreed considering that those are two expensive items. This also allows them to focus they money right now towards finding a place to live, which is good since Sarah is bouncing between my house and his right now.
Chris and I are ok, we aren't talking as much as we use to which I also think is a good thing because that way we actually have a conversation when we do talk to one another. Still not really sure what's going to happen on that front only time together will tell.
Well I suppose this is pretty long (and full of typos I'm sure) so I'm going to end this for now.
