Drama, Drama, and More Drama
There is so much drama in the store now. So it was a bad day on Sunday, really bad. Anyhow, Dan called in and talked to S because I washed the dishes with cut up fingers. Anyhow, basically she complained to EVERYONE in the store about how I MADE him call in and talk to her. Okay, first off I was driving when he called, I took RC home and drove home to hear how he called her. I was really angry about it at first, but then I wasn’t because it was apparent to me that he was trying to help me. Anyhow, so now everyone is mad at me, no one gets free food. The sooner I leave the better. I just really hate how everyone freaked out without even asking me what was up. It is making me mad. Today is my Monday and I am going to go in and not talk to anyone. If they say anything I will give them the story, but I don’t think I will be working here much longer.
Fast Food Confessional #3
In fast food, or in my experience, it seems the title of manager automatically means you get to stop doing work on the floor when you're needed and do "manager work" in the back. I don't know about today but I am about ready to shoot someone. I have been taking and running my own orders since I got here at 3. I am so fucking done. I do not get paid enough to feel this way.
So, if you ask me to work in the back on food, don't tell me to run an order out, or fill up the ice in the lobby. Also, since I'm not a back person, don't get mad when I make food slowly. Its been months since I worked breakfast in the back. I am so done with Burger King. I am going to find another job after work. I am so freaking sick of being paid $7.35/hr and being expected to do all of this shit. Really? Like really? Wtf? I understand exceptions with this job, but being the manager's personal assistant so they don't have to do any real work is not part of my job description. It isn't. So stop asking me to do every little thing for you! It's alright for you to go smoke a cigarette or two every hour but whenever I ask, I have to wait for you to go first, then we get busy and it's your turn again.
I have lost respect for most of these people. The only ones I like anymore are people who are leaving soon. There is nothing here for me anymore. I am very tired of this job.
Another thing, don't bitch about employees if you do the same thing. All the managers here are stupid. All of them, in their own way. SM doesn't know how to count or spell... or leave grammatically correct messages. N thinks he is the assistant manager when he would never be, they would hire outside of work before they would promote him. S thinks she's untouchable, and she works hard yes. Though, she works hard on the things that should be the GM's duties and not her own. Granted all her shit gets done by the end of her shifts, but that's because I am her like personal servant and I let her walk all over me...and for what? I get nothing out of it.
I think it is time for me to move on, Monday and Tuesday will be spent finding a new job. I really need it. I need to change or I will snap and be out of a job without anything to fall back on.

It's a Luxury to Cry
(My stupid phone posted this on the wrong blog so I am copying and pasting it here.)
Once you become a parent, it becomes a luxury to cry, to mope, to feel sorry for yourself and all of that. My friend RC is going through some stuff right now and we were talking about that. I know how she feels, if it weren't for my son, sometimes I would just wallow over the things that don't seem to matter and fall into depression with the big stuff. I offered to watch her son for a night so she could wallow. Though to an extent I think the act of crying is important. It releases endorfins (spelling?) and makes you feel better. Though it is also important to be strong for your children. Lately I haven't had anything to cry about and for that I am grateful.
Im on my break at work right now and nothing sounds better than going to the store to get cigarettes, but I left my ID at home. Sad face! Anyhow, my friend is about to pop any day and I know I'm not alone is wishing that baby would hurry up and get here!!! I've been waiting months to see her... then again so has my friend. I am getting more and more excited every time I think about it. Road trip! So, hurry up and have that baby! (Lol)
