Guess I was wrong

So remember how I said that today was going to be a better day? Well I was wrong, VERY wrong. Today was one of the worst days of my life, I'd rather be stuck in a time loop, and relive yesterday for the rest of my life if it meant that today didn't happen.

Well first I got written up because of last night. Because Dennis told me to take the trash out and do the keepers and Lucielle and Estavia did them because I was busy with costumers, and putting bags away, I got written up. And then not only that, but they said that I don't do anything, and that I'm always just leaning against the counter, and all this nonsense. That was upsetting enough, because I do everything around there, even when they don't tell me to, and I get no recognition whatsoever. But then right when I was about to leave, I get called in to one of my supervisor's office, and he tells me that he needs to talk to me, and it has nothing to do with me getting written up. He then goes on to say that Summit (my boss) wanted him to talk to me, that I didn't have to go to work tomorrow, but I had to come in Monday at 11 a.m. to talk to him. Apparently there's some thefts going on, and they're been "reviewing tapes" and so now they need to see me. And that's all he would tell me, and it's like they think I'm the one stealing, which is insane! I'm the most honest, trustworthy person there is, and I'm being accused to stealing. I feel so humiliated, and I was the only person that they talked to, that's even worse. It's like someone is out to get me, and they're pulling out all the stops. I mean, you don't know how much this hurts, because I work my ass off to do a good job, and I NEVER steal or lie, or even cheat. I don't even cheat on games!!! It's like there's this huge spotlight right on me with all these horrible things about me. Noboby has ever made me feel that way before, and if I'm accused of anything Monday, I'm quitting on the spot. What's worse is, that this is going to go on my record, nobody is going to hire me if they think I'm a thief. That's what gets to me the most, if I knew this was going to happen, I would have stolen stuff! At least then they'd be right. I wouldn't have busted my ass trying to do such a good job. Like today for instance, it was pouring and I had to go all the way to Milford, so I get to my bus stop, and my umbrella breaks. So now I'm getting wet, but the bus is supposed to be there any minute, so I can't go back home and get another umbrella. Well now I'm getting really wet, and the bus is LATE...20 minutes. So I finally get on the bus, drenched, even after my mom told me to just call out, but I said no, because that will give other people more things to do. So now I'm on the bus, and the AC is on really high, so it's REALLY cold, and I'm wet (just thought I'd be redundant) so of course I start sneezing, and my nose starts running, and I'm getting sick. But I go to work, and I work my ass off...and this is what I get. This was my day, hooray for me.

Hello Hello Hello

So this is my first blog entry from blogger, I wanted to write it last night, but I was too tired. Now I have less then 10 minutes to write this blog because I have to get dressed and go to work, so I shall TRY to be brief.

Last night was a very bad day. I'm really sick and tired of my manager pointing me out, and making me do all the work myself, when he doesn't do this to anybody else. Last night while I was trying to put bags in order (which I've been trying to do all day), he comes up to me and says 'It's YOUR responsibility to take the keepers in the back, and get rid of the trash by 10 p.m. or you don't go home. Because Estavia did recovery, and Lucielle finished the strips.' So I try to tell him ...'and I'm doing bags.' and he says 'I don't care, get it done or you don't go home.' Now let me explain something...First of all, he isn't technically my "boss", he's just a manager (one of many). Secondly, I ALWAYS do more than I have to do, whether he tells me to or not. I always take the keepers in the back, and I always take the trash out, not once did he tell me it was my responsibility. I just felt it had to be done, because no one else does anything. He told me earlier that the SPO's that need to be taken out from the holding shelf, get done everyday, and when he found something that should have been pulled out 3 days ago, he looks at me. Well I tell him that I hadn't been here since Sunday, and he tries to cover it up by saying, 'Well it's a small CD, it probably fell through the cracks.' Well let me tell you, I went to pull the SPO's out (like I ALWAYS do) and they hadn't been pulled since Sunday, which was when I pulled them out last. So basically I'm the only one pulling those out, but according to Dennis, their being done everyday. I just find it really unfair that he only singles me out, and he acts like I don't do anything around there, when I do almost everything, and they usually have me alone during my shift, so I'm the only cashier, which means I'm doing all this PLUS taking care of customers by myself.
My friend Estavia noticed it last night, and she told me to tell our boss (because our boss is really nice, he's very fair.) She might be right, I should tell him, but I've never been one to snitch or anything like that, and I would feel bad if Dennis got in trouble because of me. I heard he already got talked to because he was yelling at us employees, so I don't want to add any wood to the fire...if you know what I mean.

Anyways, I have to wrap it up before I miss my bus. Today should be better...Dennis isn't working today :D
