The epitome of Mondayness
Oh my good golly, I am jittering around the place, my left eye is twitching, and I've succumbed to desperation-drinking for the first time since November. O_o WHY? Because they made me team leader for the week, for the second time ever, and I am SO BAD AT IT.
Well, no. Correction: I am a very good team leader for the other members of my team. I made sure everybody was taken care of and got their breaks and got to their kids' appointments on time. However, brilliantly, I failed to schedule any assistance or fail-safes for myself for the entire afternoon and thus became the sole member of the first-line team. And then my cash register and it's keyboard stopped talking to each other and I had to do everything manually... *FACEPALM*
Eye-twitchy Megan at end of day: "Supervisor, I would like to strongly recommend that we fire the team leader."
Supervisor (who tends to take my opinion seriously and thus looked horrified for a brief moment): "... Wait, aren't you the team leader this week?"
Megan: "Yes. Yes, I am. And I am firing myself."
Supervisor: *grinning* "You don't have that authority."
Megan: "Then I resign."
Supervisor: *loling* "Then I reject your resignation!"
Megan: "THEN I AM ON STRIKE."
Supervisor: *walks away laughing*
Megan: "... I WILL MAKE PICKET SIGNS IF NECESSARY."
Threat of signs notwithstanding, I am still team leader tomorrow. *woeface*
