I was hired for……Edit

So I forgot some of my amazing “TEAM” that I was ever so amazingly reminded of at three am today.

We have one, let me say again ONE store that is open twenty-four/seven. Our Russian Auntie has been working this shift for about two hundred years and even though she gets annoyed still enjoys and comes in for this shift.

Now that being said we have had two people in the year I have been her actually stick around and kinda work the shift. Ponytail Pothead and Nerdy Pothead have both worked this shift. Ponytail offered to work this when Lazy decided she “Wanted something better” and left. That’s is a whole different can of worms. Many, many people were hired and quit because “Overnights are just to hard”. I was manager overnight at a twenty-four/seven fast food joint with only two people. These people have no idea what work is. Anyway Nerdy Pothead was hired.

Now Nerdy was hired to work overnights. That is the EXACT shift he was hired for. After working maybe a week he decided that overnights were just a horrible thing and it was to hard to do anything. Fast forward to today. He has been working mid and closing shifts and someone was hired to work the overnight. Well once again this person (who I have never met so they get the name No Name. Yes from Game of Throne. Once again a whole mother can of worms) quit because the job was “Just to hard”. Nerdy is just “at his breaking point” from being jerked around and not getting off overnights one hundred percent. All I can think is it’s what you were hired for. You knew what it was about coming in.

Seriously I’m so confused. Why would you take a job just to bitch and complain about it everyday. If you hate it that much quit. The “TEAM” will get over it and find a better fit. They do all the time.

2 days off, 5 days to go

So I spent my two days off this week sick as hell. Like head foggy, nose running and a fever sick. I also spent my two days off super medicated and taking care of my two year old daughter (being a mom is job you can’t call-in to). I got all the cloths washed and folded. The dishes are cleaned and put away.

Now it’s the five days of work. Five days of walking up at 2am (1am two of those days). Five days of donations. Five days of the employee bus. Five days till the freedom of vacation. You have no idea how long five days is till you wake up and go to work on your Monday.

Getting up

Some people hear their alarm and are up and ready to go. Some people hit snooze for a hour and then maybe thing about getting up. I hit snooze play on my phone checking Facebook, Twitter and Instagram all while hitting snooze when it goes off. The sad part is if I just get up when my alarm goes off I’m so tired and groggy, but after playing on the phone for a hour I’m wide awake and ready to go. (Yes I have hit snooze twice while writing this)
