Bitching At The Boss And Opportunities

The more time that passes during a blog drought, the harder it becomes to blog. It's weird...

Anyways, today was a very eventful day. Let me set something up for you. I have a very strict routine that gets me through my shitty days at work. I clock in at work at 4:00 PM. I take a 15 minute break at 6:00, and I take my lunch at 8:00, and then I leave at 10:30.

So today, I walk to the back room to clock out to take my break at 6. I've been taking my 6:00 break every day since I've worked there. Eugene, one of the assistant managers at the grocery store I work at who was transferred there about a month ago, is in the back room. I clock out for my break. He sees me do this. He's watched me do it on at least 2 occasions before this. For some reason today, he decides to be a prick to me about it. It is not uncommon at all for him to be a prick to anyone, but I usually get a decent amount of respect from him. More then most. So he starts trying to tell me that I can't take them anymore. I say to him "I've been taking them long before you were even here. It's part of my daily routine, I always get all of my work done so I don't see why it's even an issue". He then basically says that he doesn't give a shit. He says after 4 hours of work I'm either required to take a 15 minute paid break or a 30 minute unpaid lunch. So I then say "So you're telling me that I can't take 15's anymore right?" and he says "Yes, that's what I'm telling you." And he fucking says it in his 'I'm the boss I can do what I want' kinda way. It fucking pissed me off so I say "Alright then, ya know what, whatever. I'm fed up with shit anyway. I'm telling you right now, I'm giving you my 2 weeks notice. I fucking done". That's pretty much exactly what I said to this fuck. I fucking storm out of the back room and he calls me back in. I stop and think hmmm... walk or see what he has to say. So I go back in there, and he goes into full out ass kissing mode. I didn't, and still don't understand why exactly he went into ass kissing mode. I didn't think my skills were that valuable to him or the store for that matter, but apparently they are. We came to an agreement that I wouldn't quit and he would get me back on the stock crew. I've been off the stock crew for the past 2 months, but I stocked yesterday and he said he was really impressed. So he's getting me back on there, and I'm gonna take their shit for just a little bit longer until I get my medical benefits. After I get benefits from Winn Dixie, I can quit and still keep them. Nice Florida law. :)

Later on in the day, after I showed my assistant manager who the fucking real boss was, I ran into Alan. Alan is the man. He is my former assistant manager, and the one who trained me in the fine arts of stocking. He jumped out of the Winn Dickme boat and went over to Wal-Mart, where life is much better for him. He said he would get me hired over there and I could do night stock making 8.00 an hour. Sweet shit.

Then After I left work, I went in McDonald's and the fucking (ugly) chick who was working was being very flirty with me. She even gave me some more fudge for my sundae. It was awesome.

Then I stopped at Blockbuster and I was talking to the 2 girls working there for about 20 minutes. One of them was an assistant manager and said she would get me hired. Pretty fucking cool.

I'm gonna go rejoice in some chocolate sundae pop tarts now. Hope my 'interesting' day isn't actually boring to you, which is probably is because most blogs are very boring, but I try to make mine not so boring... Hey...

I OFTEN FANTASIZE ABOUT FUCKING A DOLPHIN IN THE BLOW HOLE.

Just kidding... ;) (maybe o_0)
