Wanna know what i love?
Waking up at 5:45 am to get ready for work, getting to work for 6:30 am...and then having Jeff Martel breathing down my neck ALL day long!!! He was friggin relentless today. I'm pretty sure i have never met a more sour, arrogant, pompous, miserable waste of a life douch bag than Jeff Martel. I'm sorry...but you are the ASSISTANT store manager, of SHAW's in MERRIMACK EFFING NEW HAMPSHIRE! You aren't exactley living in the big time! So please tell me Jeff Martel, who the fuck do you thing you are? What makes you think you can belittle associates in front of customers, and ruin everybody's day?
That is what i was asking myself all day long.
Then at 2pm i was finally ready to leave. Martel had been pushing my buttons all day long, but i did the right thing and kept my mouth shut. So at 2 when we had just finished a 45 minute to hour long rush (oh ya, he was on my ass, and Joe's about cutting all day) a couple of people came in at two. So for about 30 seconds it looked like we had a lot of people hanging around. So of course Jeff Martel comes right up next to me, and in his usual condescending tone he asks "Are you still cutting"? So i began to say "You'll have to talk to Joe about that" , then he cut me off and said "So that means no?! I'll call him then!" What i was trying to tell him is that he'd have to ask Joe because i was friggin leaving, and it was now up to Joe! So then Joe came over, and he chewed Joe out AGAIN. I think Joe could see i was getting pissed, so he told me to i was all set to go. I punched out, and i was steaming inside thinking about what a dick Jeff Martel is. So as i was getting my coat as he walked by...i asked "Can I ask you something Mr. Martel?" "Sure" he says...then i just had to say it. I asked him "Why do you have to be so rotten every time i deal with you? Every time i see you coming my way it's because i know you are mad about something. I have never heard you say anything positive." He told me that "He didn't agree with me". Then i told him that there is a problem when everybody has a problem with him. It's not everybody else, it's HIM. Then he said "I don't think everybody feels that way about me." Then i told him, "Trust me, i think they do." haha, sucka!!! So anyhoo he turned his back on me mid-sentence twice, and was totally disrespectful when i tried talking to him. I was calm, and was actaully pretty professional about it. But i needed to get this off my chest. Then i told him that i think i should have a talk with Mr.Duball about him. To which he arrogantley replied "You can talk to anybody you want."
When this conversation ended i was so mad i was literally shaking. Kendra and Lauren were in the breakroom and they told me i needed to sit down and count to ten. haha.
Honestly though, i really try to just take it and keep my mouth shut. But i'm sorry, somebody had to say something to him. He is just so rotten, sour, bitter...i could go on and on. Usually after i do something like this i feel bad afterwards, but this time i didn't. He makes people miserable. He makes me miserable. I'm glad he knows he is hated. Maybe he can finally take a look at himself, and fix a few things. To quote another employee i talked to today (who's name i can't say)...they told me " I know this sounds awful...but if Jeff Martel was burning alive, i woulden't waste my piss on him." Strong words...just goes to show you the over all impressoin this angel has left on us all.
When i got home i was still really, really angry. So i had something to eat, and just relaxed for a while. I needed to decompress. I went to the Y, worked out...came home, took a shower, and then slept all night.
It makes me feel bad that i actually dislike somebody as much as i dislike Jeff Martel. I don't know if i could truthfully say that i hate anybody, but i think this is close.
Wow that was a rant. Oh well, i'm better for it...I let Shaw's bother me too much. I don't know why. It's not going to be my career or anything. When it boils down to it, it's just a part time job while i'm in school...yep, i'll keep telling myself that.
Anyways...God Bless
