I'd really like to write more about Tom Hiddleston, The Avengers, Loki and Clint Barton, not my horrible real life problems but at the moment I need to vent a little, so please bear with me. (*And send me lots of Tom Hiddleston and Loki pics :P ( Read more... )

I hope your boss is the type to apologize PROFUSELY for messing up this bad. Preferrably with something nice (flowers? a really nice latte?).

If not, I'd tell him that in the future, if he ever schedules something on a saturday again, you will expect confirmation beforehand or you won't show up...and if he doesn't show up despite that, you'll start billing him for the overtime.

Hell, even if you can't acutally do that, tell him that that's what you'd like to do, tell him he owes you big-time, just to get your point across.

...

You asked for Loki / Hawkeye pics

Not sure if I mentioned it yet, but I did start a tumblr:

Hm, unfortunately no, my boss isn't the type to apologise. More the opposite :(

Thank you for your tumblr! I'm following you now :P (Before you consider following back, just one word of warning: my tumblr is very NSFW ...)

I have a fannish Pinterest which I foolishly called "Pretty Things" but should have just called "All things Tom Hiddleston" instead :D

No idea if this will work for you, but in similar situations, I've made my displeasure quite clear to superiors when they messed up in a "we're both supposed to be professionals and sorry, your performance right now was simply sub-par, don't do it again, 'K?" kind of way and it's always worked wonders (for me).

People tend to treat you the way you frame yourself, so if you assert yourself with self-confidence, people usually will react to that (and vice versa if you play the foot-mat).

Will follow your tumble, and truth told, the NSFW bit is actually a selling poing ^_~

Not on Pinterest yet, not sure if I will go there....I have too many accounts already...o_O

But I'll definitely bookmark it!

This usually works but with my current boss it's doubtful-I am actually preparing to leave the job, possibly even in the next few days.

Thank you for the follow back on Tumblr :P it'll encourage me to post more NSFW content, ehehehe :D

Your boss is an ass. I hope you are able to leave that job quickly and throw yourself a party when you do.
