(no subject)
I walked out of my job tonight, lol. I wish I could say that I said something really sweet, like, "I quit this bitch!" but I didn't. I just got really pissed off a comment my manager made.
It was the beginning of my shift, and usually I stand around for 45 minutes doing nothing before I have a pizza to deliver. Today I was standing around, doing nothing when I realized I left my purse on the passenger seat with the doors unlocked. Pat (manager extraordinaire) was on the phone, so I just went out to my car. When I got there, I put my purse in the trunk, turned the radio to see the time and ooh, a good song was on, so I sat there for a bit. Then I decided to put on some lipgloss. After a few minutes, I went back inside. When I got back, Pat goes, "Is your make up okay?" He said it in such a condescending, asshole way that I was instantly pissed off. I said, rather icily, "My purse was in an unlocked car. I went to put it in the trunk." (As soon as I said that, I immediately wished that my purse was something more gender neutral... yet another reason for them to treat me like a stupid girl). Anyway, he goes, "I looked around the corner and you were putting on makeup." I said, "I put on a little bit of lipgloss! So what, it took two seconds!" He said, "Well, next time you step out, you need to ask me." I said, "You were on the phone and I wasn't gone for long. It's not like there's a whole lot to do around here anyway." He just kind of turned away after that. I really should have said, "Next time you have something to say, just say it instead of making bullshit comments like that", but I didn't think that fast. Anyway, I finished the shift and told him I wouldn't be coming back.
Not the sweetest way to quit a job, and I know I could have made more money, but I really don't want to deal with that bullshit place anymore. The whole work environment is so fucked up... I feel so weird as the only girl. On one of my first shifts, the other manager put his arm around my shoulders and I hated it. I said, "Don't touch me" and I think that's what started this whole thing. Anyway, I'm glad.
