Work babble

So I've recently gotten my first real job outside of substitute teaching. Making sandwiches, cleaning the shop, typical barely-over-minimum wage stuff. (Got a 50 cent raise for knowing my sandwiches \o\.)

I spend most of my time on night shift, and while school was still in, that meant I had all the teenagers. Not so bad, generally, but some just tick me off.

I'll start with R.

I don't know what R's problem is. She has requested to not work with me, and if it so happens that she is scheduled, she either bitches about it constantly, whines until the PIC (pretty much a shift/assistant manager) lets her leave early, or goes home "sick" as soon as I walk in the door.

All I did to get this is expect her to not act like a 13 year old. She just graduated high school. One of her boyfriends (yes you read that right) went "Fuck the poh-leese" at a family of customers. When I called him on it, she got all pissed off saying something about the three years' age difference between us meant nothing.

That just speaks loads about her maturity level, doesn't it?

She has mood swings that make me wonder why she's not medicated, she gets raging pissed off if she doesn't get her way in the smallest thing, and management's too afraid of ticking her off to say anything. But they understand how she is, and they know it's nothing that I've specifically done, she's just a spoiled brat. She also spends half the shift on the phone.

But since she's asked to not be scheduled with me, that means I don't get irritated with her, and I don't have urges to stab her with a bread knife. And I actually have fun when she's not there.

S, He-A, She-A, B, And managers R, S, N, and J are all made of awesome and I ♥ the lot of them. R and T are the only blemishes on my otherwise awesome workplace.

But all this being said? I'm soglad I have the next two days off XDD;;;
