Work III: Morale Freefall & Friday the 13th

[kyrasantae]

I couldn't wake up this morning. Just didn't want to get out of bed. Just didn't want to deal with bitch girl. No way. Nor customers who can't speak English properly.

I cried all the way to work.

One of the other ladies told me that bitchgirl was just as rude and pushy to her when she first started. And it's not like bitchgirl is much older than me (she's also 19), and she's definitely not older than that other lady I was talking to. At least bitchgirl wasn't at work today. Bitchgirl thinks she's so great because she's 19 and works at Panago and knows so much. Me hates bitchgirl. Bitchgirl give me mental breakdown.

I told everybody around that there was no way anyone was going to get me on the till, because there was no way I was going to be happy doing it. Or doing it well. At all. So for the most part, I made drinks and looked for paper cups. And washed dishes while the lady who normally does dishes took her break. Of all things, I prefer doing dishes most. I don't have to face people all the time, the dishwasher always cooperates, and gloves help my hands quite a bit with the hot dishes.

Anyway, dinner is calling right now so I better finish this up (might add more later), but later in the afternoon, some younger workers came by (they're still in high school), and their energy and hyperness really helped me feel a lot better.

In any case, work still sucks. The iced capp machine that didn't work for me for the last two days worked for me today. I think it's evil. That's why it'd only work on Friday the 13th.


Edit: Workbitch 2005 - It's official!

Oh they were there yesterday, it's just that normally I prefer to do things with my bare hands.

An engineer not able to find a work related job in Calgary and ends up working at Tim Hortons, pretty funny. Also, if you can't deal with people, why are you working at a Service oriented Job instead of somewhere that doesn't require people friendly stuff?

Because I haven't found it yet. forgottenlord's dad said he might have an engineering-related office job for me but he still hasn't gotten back to me yet. And besides, one year of engineering studies doesn't normally qualify you for any actual engineering work. It's really not that funny.

So do you work Tuesday?

[kyrasantae.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I work Tuesday. :( *sobs*

Anytime from 5-9? Or are you doing the early shift?

[kyrasantae.livejournal.com]

9-4. I think I only get day shifts. Don't know if bitchgirl will be there. Then Thursday 9-5 with bitchgirl (most likely). Then on the weekend, 7am-3pm. Bah. I'll be really tired, but forgottenlord wants to visit me on the weekend since he'll be in Calgary for the weekend.

Man, you have consistently long shifts. Mine range from 4-8.5 hours. But I work about 5 days a week.
