Had a chuckle
when I woke up this morning. I saw a headline that apparently the
shareholders of the parent company of my store think that the staff
is underpaid and they are supposedly asking the company to pay us a
“Living Wage” of at least $19 to $20. Yeah, that's not going to
happen. I had just gotten a 25 cent raise. Raising it to $20, would
be a nearly 25 PERCENT raise. Which would be a fun idea, it's just
not going to happen.
There was a
digital coupon for the name brand coffee last week so I had took
advantage of that to buy “Black Silk” flavored coffee, and I
can't say that I like that flavor, it just tastes burnt. I usually
drink the Breakfast Blend of the store brand. Every once and a while
I'll pick up a darker blend out of curiosity and then remembering
that I don't really like the darker blends of coffee. I added a bit
of cream to the coffee and that helped with the flavor.
For lunch I had
some Johnsonville Jalapeno Cheddar Sausages. I had eaten those really
quick because I had promised Mom that I would go over to the church
to help her with the set up for Tomorrow's Party that we're throwing
for Grandma's Birthday. But apparently I had gotten there after
everything was already done. Or at least during a lull in the action
as not much was happening while I was there.
Maybe I was just
too distracted while I as at lunch. Right before I had clocked out
for lunch I was called up to the office for a meeting with the
managers. A cashier had just turned in her Two Week Notice. Last
night she had an order that had a lot of items that were rang up
incorrectly and a lot of other items that needed the price corrected.
And as the customers were getting upset and she was getting
frustrated with the order I had figured the best way to fix the order
was to cancel the order and just ring it back up again. But the
cashier interpreted that as the customers “chewing her out” and I
was “Chewing her out” and she was just done with everything in
the store. And the managers told me that there were lots of incidents
in my file of me, “yelling at people” and “being rude” to
people. And the manager knew of lots of occasions were I was “yelling
at people” I tried to explain that I was only trying to be heard in
the noisiness of the store. My voice just doesn't seem to be able to
be heard when it gets loud in the store. And lately a lot of people
are yelling, not angry, just yelling. So I'm emphasizing my words to
try to be heard. But apparently that's just unacceptable. Basically
I'm just one hurt fee fees from being turned over to HR and, “That
doesn't ever go well for the associate”
So basically I'm
going to be walking on eggshells and edges of razor blades, praying
that I don't have to be too, “forceful” with anybody or I'll just be out of
the only job that I've ever had. What would happen after that? I have
no idea. I wouldn't trust Roommate to pick up the slack on Bills,
Rent, Food, etc. Mom had told me that she'd like me to stay with her.
But for how long would I stay with her? Would I ever be able to get a
new job that would sustain my situation at hire?
I worked a bit later than I usually do because I was scheduled to close the customer service desk so when I got home I didn't want to do much so I just threw some steaks in the oven.
