Quick update on grades. Making a B in english now. I've got the chance to bring it back up to an A though, which is great. Algebra is starting to really suck. I got the problems when I was doing the homework assignments and quizzes, but when it came to the first test I didn't do so hot. Got a 78. Hopefully, I'll be able to keep my grades up pretty well the rest of the semester though.
Anyway, on to the crap. So, a week ago last Thursday night, Keara went to bed with a fever. I texted the girl who was supposed to close the store on Friday to get her to switch hours with me so that I could take Keara to the doctor. She said she couldn't cause she already had plans. I said something to her about not wanting to ask my cousin cause she probably wouldn't cause of me not working for her when she broke up with her boyfriend (was trying to get her to go in to keep her mind off him, btw). She texted me back and told me that my cousin was at her house, and she said she couldn't work either cause they had plans. Needless to say, I cried for about an hour cause my daughter was sick and they were being selfish and I was gonna have to leave my boss in the store all day by herself, with no break and no food. I texted a friend of mine who used to work there too, and she called me back to find out what was going on. When I told her, she was mad about it. Then she told me that they (my cousin and the other girl) have told my boss everything that I've ever said about her and then some. They've went so far as to tell my boss that I hate her. I don't though; I don't hate anybody. That made me mad instead of sad. I'm no longer talking to either of them about anything meaningful and if my boss comes to me with some crap that I've supposedly said since all this has taken place, I'll be able to tell her that they're lying.
Here comes the fun part. I had to work with both of them this past Thursday, and as soon as we walked in the door, the other girl started looking at the schedules that my boss has made out. Namely the one that's for next week. Our weeks run Monday thru Sunday, so it's the 9th-15th. Well, that's the week of Spring Break here at the college, and the girl had already asked for the 9th-12th off. Well, since the time that my boss made the schedule and this past Thursday, the girl's boyfriend got a job, so they can't go camping those 4 days cause he has to work 3 of them. So she asked me what I was doing on the 14th and 15th (MY weekend off). I told her that I had plans with my sister-in-law. Then she had the audacity to tell me to cancel them and give her my weekend off. LIKE HELL I WILL!!!!! I found out that the reason they couldn't postpone their plans so I could take my sick daughter to the doctor was because they went to Hooters!!! Apparently, going there was more important to them than making sure my daughter was ok. I didn't say anything to her about all that because my boss has said that she doesn't want us to have a hostile work environment. When she told me to cancel, I just looked at her, then turned and walked away. If I hadn't, we probably would've ended up in a fist fight before the day was over.
As soon as I get my degree, I'm getting a good job in a school, and I'm quitting that place. The only reason I'm leaving before then is if I can find a better job til I get my degree or my boss fires me. With me being there over a year, though, they have to have a reason to fire me, such as poor work performance or something like that. And they don't have any of that, so if they let me go, I can turn around and sue the company. I'm not stupid.
