And the day is about to end
What is with this shit?? Am I just destined to have the worst luck of anyone in the world? Nothing can ever go right for me. And people wonder why I am always so down on myself.
Three years ago, I stepped into the doorway of BAM 586. I think that right there was my first mistake. Ever since August 23rd 1999, I have been shit on and screwed. Everytime I go back I think it has to get better, but then it never does. I am so naive at times. I am glad things go well for Amanda there, but ooooooh no, not for me. It just can't happen. So I guess you want the story. Ok, here goes:
It really started two days ago, (so if you are not caught up I will give you time to catch up- go no quickly, the rest of the class is waiting). Ok lesson continued. So after she had stolen my tips I had had it. I was done. It was definately my mission to get her fired. But like I said previously, nothing ever works out for me. I come in Saturday, after having a wonderful night with my now turned 24 year old boyfriend, thinking I could have a great night. I was working with Michael. Michael had been written up earlier in the week but had not been there to receive it. So I let him know that he hould have expected something. He got pissed off. He asked me to leave him alone with Jennifer to see if she would mention it. So I went to the bathroom. I came back up and she immediately left. Michael said she didn't mention his write up, but she mentioned me.
Quote unquote. "If she is bitching about me again this is what you can tell her. If she doesn't like how I do my job then she needs to look for a new one, which I strongly suggest because Clyde wants me to stay."
Now at first when I heard this, I laughed. A week and a half ago Clyde was telling everyone (including Jennifer) that he didn't want her to be the manager he wanted me. So one could pass this off as retardedness. Which is what I did. I am sorry, if you call stealing my tips part of your job then you need a serious reality check. I won't tolerate that. But then it hit me, she wants to fire me before Clyde fires her. Kinda like, if she can't have the position neither can I. Boy was I wrong. but I am getting to that.
Then, I hear from Mark that Jennifer is having Whitney watch me. She wanted her to write down everytime I smoked a cigarettte (no matter if I went outside to chain the chairs, or to clean...) and how many phone calls I make and receive. Now if anyone understand me, you would know that I am not much of a phone person, so I don't use the phone a whole lot. If I do it is real quick and to the point... not long and drawn out. So that was pretty pointless. Well whatever.
Whitney approached me and told me not to worry about her talking to Jennifer about me and I told her "whitneym, I could care less if you told her that I said 'lick my balls,' she is a fucking bitch and you can quote me on that." Whitney still claims she is not going to talk to Jennifer about me. I got pissed because whitney isn't even a manager or a cafe associate. What business is it of hers how many damn cigarettes I smoke????
Oh no, it doesn't end here. I still have two more paragraphs before I am completely finished.
Then Diane calls me to the back because she needs to talk to me. She sits me down and asks me to explain my side of the story. I tell her about Thursday and then on friday when I found out the she sstole my tips. Diane let me go on and on like a dumbass. Then when I am finished, she looks at me, gets this horrible twisted expression and that is where it began. "I am so sick of your high school bullshit. You need to grow up and get over it. Let Jennifer do her job and stop complaining about her. It is none of your business how she does her job." So I simply reply back with "it affects me when she is treating my like shit." "Well this is just a job, you come in here to make money, just get over it and don't worry about anyone other than yourself." So basically, I got yelled at for being treated like shit. How much sense does this make to anyone other than myself? I get treatedlike shit and them I am told to get over it????? Fuck that.
Lastly, I go back up, in tears. Mark tells me he needs to smoke a cigarette and tell me something. So I go outside and sit down to smoke a cigarette. He tells me nonchalantly, "I heard that Jennifer was begged to stay manager. Clyde begged her. I also heard the reason is Barb and Edie went to him and said that if you became manager they would quit." So now this made sense to me what Jennifer said earlier. Clyde doesn't want to lose two people who help run the store, so instead of promoting me he is going tokeep the bitch who can't do her damn job and screw me. At this point I am pissed off. I have been at BAM 587 for about 8 months now and suddenly, I am finding myself hating my job for the first time. This started 2 days ago. So now I am on a mission to find a new job, anyone have any good ideas? Lemme know. Talk to you guys later. Iam going to go sit in a corner and cry.
