i hate my job :)

do the terms safety, and doorknob mean anything special to you?

so i live at kohl's now. i get called in like every day off i have so i've had two days off in the past three or so weeks. the hours are good but i think that i just might use the word hate in this situation.
wierd things. first, it's uncomfortable because it seems that everyone talks trash about everyone. these people don't even know me that well and they feel perfectly comfortable gossipping to me. these are like married people with kids. i hope i grow up to be that mature and professional.
so the manager who hired me. he's in his early thirties, i imagine. first few days of the job, i thought he was just amazing. he was really nice to me, gave me a lot of attention, went out of his way to check on me, was really good with my name. then after my third day, he was off every day that i worked and then i went on vacation and then he took a three week vacation like right when i came back. so he walks in yesterday-first day back from vacation. he was like hey lauren!!! and held out his arms. i thought i was surely misunderstanding the gesture but he really did walk over and give me a hug. and now he's like constantly in my department and wanting to know what's going on with me and stuff. really wierd i think. just makes me sort of wierded out, i think. i need a lot of personal space.
and there's this other guy and he was telling me the other day about how we have these big huge changes three times a year and i was like oh well i don't have to be here becuase i'm going back to school. and then he was like blah blah you can't leave and let us suffer alone and i said something to the effect of...that's cool, i can deal with that. you guys doing it without me. and he was like doing what? and i was like, the torture. keep in mind i can't remember all the exact words but i am certain that doesn't really matter because apparently what he heard was "I LIKE TORTURE." and he took this in a sexual context. so he got all funny about it and i was like..ahhh? so today he kept bringing this up and it seems he thinks i was like flirting or something and so all day today he was like hardcore flirting. not really flirting, i wouldn't say. just like randomly dropping inappropriate statements. once again uncomfortable. in my head i was like ok lauren, just act like a big bitch so he'll hate you.
i might pop up to richmond tomorrow night after work. i'm excited because noreen has the new harry potter and she's done with it and she said i can borrow it. i am stoked.
still in love with johnny depp. even as willy wanka.
