week from hell
This has just been the week from hell for me. Aside from the previously mentioned crap I get an invite from my evil sister for my son Jason who is moving to New York on the 21st. She is giving him a going away party ....oh an I wasn't asked to help plan or anything.... nor was I asked if I was planning anything for him....oh...and my husband and Andreas are not welcome.
It is a hard thing to say...I am completely heart broken. My child has completely written me out of his life and I don't know why. What evil have I done to him? It is as though he is going through the rebellous stage that the other two went through at 14 now when he is 20. I don't understand it. I don't get it. I am completely miserable and beside myself but if that is how he wants it....what can I do? Nothing but just let him go his own way and hope one day he finds his way back.
Oh and Becker's? Thanks for giving us the day off with pay after thanksgiving...but I know you are only doing it because it would cost more to keep the doors open that day than you would actually earn in business. So thanks...but I am not fooled by your generosity.
An to Angie...I think it is great that you want to give part of any of your incentives to charity....but do not offer up mine. We were asked by the management what kinds of incentives we salespeople would like to see as a reward for extra work. Now gien that Beckers has cut everyone's salary 10% I am looking to earn any kind of incentive as possible, but Angie makes the suggestion that we don't pay it out to the salesman as a reward but let that salesman pick a charity to give it to because there are many people off work who don't have jobs.
Yeah...well that was ME earlier this year. So I told her she can offer up her incentive if she wants but don't offer up mine. I would be willing to donate my time but don't you dare reward me with money and then in the same instant tell me I have to give it away. Selfish? you bet! I am driving around in a car that is barely drivable because I can not pay the insurance deductible to get it fixed and you want to take even more money out of my pocket. Beckers has taken away 10% of my pay and you want me to give up even more. Becker's has just screwed me out of a raise in pay and you want me to give up even more and you are going to give me an attitude because I said I would rather donate my time than my money? Fuck you and the broom your rode in on.
She also got all pissed off because she is taking up a collection for Joni, who was laid off last month. Her husband is dying of cancer. I would give money in other circumstances, but right now I can't afford to. "How bout I help out around her house, run errands for her or something..donate my TIME instead. I really can not afford to give to charity right now"
She went off on my about how Joni gave 25 years of her life to Beckers and was family NOT charity. Well then let Becker's feel guilty and give her money. They are the ones that let her go. I barely knew Joni, yet I am offering to help. Guess what? Offering to give of yourself for the benefit of others..that is charity....especially since I didn't know her. She wasn't my friend. I barely talked to her in the three years I had been there. So fuck you and your high horse.
I think the entire world has gone nuts.
