Had to work today, as usual. My boss wanted me to come in earlier to do some work, but I woke up late. I was on time for my schedule, but not for what she wanted me to do. We have some new items that we're offering and a lot of prep work (changing the menu boards, changing the registers, putting up assembly aids for the cooks, putting up scripting for the cashiers) that needs to get done. I got most of it ready, but just didn't put a bit of it up yet, lol. So, I'm going to go in real early tomorrow and do it all before I have to take over the shift.
Two things about work that piss me off: the fact that I've been a manager for about a month and I have no keys yet, the stupidity of some people who work there. We offer a Charbroiled Chicken Club Sandwich/Combo and this one ditz keeps calling it a fucking "Grilled Chicken Club" when some one comes through the drive-thru. I don't know how many fucking times I've told her what to say, but she keeps on saying "Grilled." I could slap her.
Plus, a customer order a Charbroiled Chicken Club and Mushroom 'N Swiss Thickburger. Then the customer sees our Lowcarb Thickburger and wants it instead of the Charbroiled Chicken Club. The ditz tells me thus, but as if she wanted the Lowcarb Thicburger in additon to the other sandwiches. I had to get it out of the customer in order to figure it out. Then the cook already made the Charbroiled Chicken Club and Mushroom 'N Swiss Thickburger. The ditz is starring at the Mushroom 'N Swiss trying to figure it out. C'mon, there's swiss cheese and mushroom sauce hanging off of the burger. She asks me what it is..
Me - What are you doing?
Ditz - Trying to figure out what this is.
Me - One, holding the basket that way will make the burger fall apart. (She was holder the basket backwards. If you've been to a Hardee's/Carl's Jr lately you'd understand) Two, your first order was for the Chicken Club and Mushroom and a Lowcarb was rung up last. You obviously know what the Chicken Club looks like and know you don't need it. The Lowcarb is in a lettuce wrap and it hasn't been made yet. Out of the two orders you have one sandwich left and one sandwich that's up. So, common sense would dictact that this burger is the Muchroom.
Ditz - Ohh...
(Similiar situation, different day...there is only one ticket up and only one sandwich made)
Ditz - What's this for?
Me - It's for the order, on the ticket, that you have starring you in the face.
I'm sorry but when you're just that slow and "dee, dee, dee" I can't help but get frustrated and poke fun at 'em. I'd say 75%, or more, of intelligence is just plain old common sense.
Had to walk home in the cold. The one day that I didn't bring: a heavier coat, a change of more winter-esk clothes, snow boots. I was rather urked by it, but I lived. Just talked to Hollie on the way home. That kept me rather warm inside. Hehe..
When I got home, I chowed down on some Chinaese food and Ruffles Sour Cream 'N Onion chips. Had a few smokes and swigs of Faygo Moon Mist. When that was all said and done, I played one of the games I rented and now I'm here. However, my Mother gave me the "Evil Eye" and a sigh of disust at the fact that I'm still up. So, it's off to bed...or at least pretend to be, lol.
Hollie, reading your LJ post made my night that much sweeter. <33
