It was kind of a small steak. Having to quickly rewrite this post as I was playing Oblivion and had the daily Blog and the various spreadsheets open and the game froze and I had to reboot my computer. Reminding me that I should save often. Lunch was a pack of Jalapeno Cheddar Bratwursts that the store has on a limited time sale. I was playing through the Crusader Quest Line that was included in the Knights of the Nine expansion. It involves traveling from one end of the land to the other completing little tests. If the “Horse Armor” expansion was more like this I think that it would have ...

Kind of slept in today and that kind of sucks because I was scheduled 10-7 instead of the usual 11-8. so I had to hurry to eat breakfast. And didn't get any coffee.

Nice to see another record low weight for the morning. Or at least I think it is I didn't have much time to test the scale a lot to see if it was glitching again today. I thought about getting a new scale when I get groceries next week but looking at the app the only bathroom scale that they have only reads up to 330 lbs and it would be nice to be at that level, I'm just not there yet.

I have to say there's nothing that encourages me more to get the savings plan going than listening to Roommate playing Call of Duty. Every time he gets shot IN A SHOOTER GAME he yells out, “ANOTHER F*GG*T IN A CORNER” every time he shoots or gets shot IN A SHOOTER GAME he shouts “F*GG*T” or “N*GG*R” it would be like if someone was playing UNO and every time someone paid a card they screamed out profanity. Not just a “Draw Four” or something like that, just every time someone played a card. And then he shouts about how his teammates are all “sucking each other off” and then makes slurping slopping noises. He plays like that from when he wakes up in the morning until he passes out at about 2 or 3 in the morning. Oh, and he found a high pitched “nanaaana” chanting noise to play on his phone while he plays online. We are both very ready for him to get back to work next month.

We had a little bit of rain last night but only enough to wash the dust out of the sky, out of the sky onto my car. The car was GRUNGY today. We're supposed to get more rain tonight. Hopefully the rain tonight will wash it off a bit. I looked at the radar while writing this up and I'm jealous of Oklahoma. They're getting the storms that I've been in the mood of for a while.

Needless to say I wasn't in a very good mood when I went to work and the mood kind of sank as I drove in. And it didn't improve during the day. Apparently yesterday the store had a “walk” when a big time manager came in to do a inspection of the store and today the CSM was very insistent on telling me that we almost FAILED because I wasn't standing in front of the registers greeting every customer that came through. The only reason that the store wasn't FAILED in our walk was because the store manager 'PLEADED' with the visiting manager not to FAIL the entire store because, “one guy wasn't doing his job” I do remember seeing the store manager with some other people yesterday, but it was at the time when it seemed like half the population of Kansas was trying to come through the store. Don't get me wrong I do believe that customer engagement is an important thing. But if it's busy I'm going to be doing more than just standing in front of the registers saying hi to customers as they're walking by. If it's busy people are constantly screeching for me. Sure a lot of it is things they could handle themselves and they seem like they are asking permission to do their jobs. But as a supervisor it is my job to respond if people need help with their jobs. But being lectured because I wasn't standing in front of the registers while I'm having to run all over creation, just tells me that nothing I do will ever be enough. I could be in four different places at the exact same time and they'll be disappointed that I'm not in the fifth. I'll never be enough for them. Nothing will ever be enough. I wasn't thanked for having an average wait time of 43 seconds when the goal is 62 seconds, or having 94% of the customers coming through the line standing literately next in line when the goal is 85%. I am a failure because I wasn't standing there in the middle of the room "Saying Hi" to every single person that came into the store.

Makes me wonder what I'm doing there if I'm just such a failure at doing my job.

At lunch I was just going to have the serving of Tuna Mornay, but that was a really small serving. And I was hungry. So I combined it with a serving of the Clam Chowder, and that was a good combination. But I did have really fishy burps the rest of the day. 

I am proud of myself that I avoided buying anything today. Doesn't seem like much, but I'm really going to start being really heavy on the penny pinching. On that note I'm thinking about canceling my subscription to the YMCA. It's only $40/month. But it's $40 a month that I'm spending and not going. I could start going, or it'll be another $40 a month that I could save. And I'm thinking that every month I'm trying to scrape by and I should just wait until I'm caught up and ahead on other things before signing up again.
