Work rant....again....and other stuff....
Work kicked my butt this past weekend. I wasn't in my department for pretty much the whole time. Friday, I got stuff accomplished in my department, and I was quite proud. The rest of the time, I was on a register, or in Frozen Food. I became a Tessacicle XD LOL...I know that people think running a register is an easy job...they think wrong! It's not easy, doing the monotonous thing over and over, standing on a mat that makes your back hurt worse, instead of helping it like it's supposed to, crabby people that fuss at you when the lines are long, even though you are going as fast and as accurate as you can, like they expect you to magically pull people out of your butt to run more registers. And they don't understand, that when the lines are long, and it's late, that we are getting off, and they don't have as many people on night shift. I know, some may be thinking, "why don't you stay over and help them with the lines?" I can tell you this. There is no incentive. If full time stays over, instead of being paid for the overtime that they earned, they are forced to cut it until it's back to normal hours, or risk being wrote up for getting overtime. We are understaffed as it is. People don't realize that when you stand there for eight hours, everything hurts, and you just want to go home also. Drives me crazy to listen to people say crap like, "well, I've been in here too long" or "I gotta get out of here!" Well, maybe they should have thought about that when they first came in. It's not our fault that you shopped for too long, or that we don't have enough cashiers to cover. That's not the peons fault. Talk to management about that! And, I can't stand when people say the "too long" thing, and they are SO TIRED, blah blah blah....Well, I've been having to stand in one spot, lifting heavy crap off the conveyer belt because you couldn't leave it in the cart and let me scan it with my hand scanner, for over 8 hours, everything hurts, we've been pretty much mentally abused by people, and you expect me to feel sorry for you for spending a little too much time shopping? I even told a customer that started complaining to me about the lines, and I told them like it is....they were shocked and shut up too. Do people honestly think we like to stand there and listen to it? Like us peons can even do anything about it. And talking to management doesn't help, I can guarantee you that...I know after I was getting off Sunday, after working in Frozen for half the day, and then running a register with backed up lines for the rest, when I was walking to the back, I was exhausted, and I thought my knees were going to give out on me, I was that tired. Ugh, I hope this weekend is better XD.
And if you jut got through that rant, I congratulate you XD.
In other news, I'm so happy G blogged. I know he's extremely busy, but when we hear not much of anything, I honestly start to worry a bit. He seems to be doing ok though, so that's a relief as well.
And my Crimson Wave is here! I'm actually happy about it too! XD LOL...I shall explain. I am going to the beach in a couple of weeks, and I didn't want to deal with it while I was there. Now it will be all done and over with! Yayz! Speaking of the beach, my parents are going down before I will, and they are taking my son with them. They think I'm coming down that Monday after they go down, but I've used up my personal time to go down on that Sunday. I'm going to surprise them...I just hope my son and hubby don't tell them XD. And yes, once again, I'll be driving by myself...but I know the route, so all will be well XD.
And I'm supposed to share my trashcan dream XD...It's not long, and Val told me to share XD LOL
It's nothing too great, and it gives a glimpse of my sex life, so if you don't want to, don't read further XD LOL
Ok, I was dreaming, but kinda aware of what was going on too. Well, my hubby, in his sleep, decided he wanted to have a little fun with me (yayz XD), and proceeded to. Well, in my dream, he was having sex with a trashcan (ie me XD).
Let's see....I've also dreamt that I was in G's kitchen being nosey and looking through his fridge when he sneaks up on me XD....another that had me so concerned I actually emailed him, and that's the one that I dreamt he literally got stabbed in the back. I've also had dreams where his presense was really intense, but I don't recall seeing him, or what even happened. But I believe I've had connections dreams with him too. I know there are others, but I can't remember! :( *cries*
I've also had dreams (more like nightmares), of work. Like I dreamt that I was stocking in the grocery department, but I was the only one doing it, and I was overwhelmed. Well, all my coworkers decided to bring me their laundry to fold, and about that time in the dream, my hubby actually rolls over and puts his arm around me, and I moan, "nonono!" He's going, "why not?" and then I said, "oh not you...them"...LOL. I've also dreamt of neverending orders with the rudest person in the world. XD.
And, my son's bday is this coming Monday. Do not worry, I will take lots of pics! ^_^
