Another work rant.
October has been a crazy month already and it’s not even halfway through.
Work has been crappy. We have a new supervisor whom I’m convinced is on a power trip. She has a snarky attitude about most things and is extremely annoying. Two Saturdays ago I was late for work. I realize I came to work late and would be receiving a 1/2 of an occurance for it. But then I was 1 minute late from clocking into my system from my break and she gave me another 1/2 of an occurance. The interesting part about this was, had I not even come in (because we were over in hours) I woudn’t have even gotten an occurance in the first place! Especially since on a normal work week when we’re not going to be over in hours I would have only received a 1/2 of an occurance. Which essentially equates to 2 days that I could normally miss from work.
Then at the beginning of this week Tracy from HR came around my supervisors cubicle with the security guard and started complaining about how someone took her expensive T-mobile G1 off of her desk. I understand why she would be pissed, however, my work has a NO CELL PHONE POLICY. Which obviously applies to everyone else but Carrie(the manager of my building) If they even see our cell phone on our desk we can be written up for it. Hell, I’ve seen people get fired for their cell phones being out. Plus, she’s been there long enough to know that a lot of people at my job are shady. So the fact that she would leave her cell phone out is her fault. And she seemed cheery today so I’m thinking(and the rest of the building as well) thought she may have misplaced it. The bad part about that situation was that all the supervisors, after their pow wow, had a “desk inspection”. Not once in the past year that I’ve been there have they ever done that. And supposedly they wanted to do bag inspections but can’t because that would be illegal.
So aside from the fact that My current job sucks (not dance. I love that one and I wish I could work at Lakewood permanently.) I went to go to Fed Ex yesterday with my friend Jessica to apply as a package handler. It’s the same thing my boyfriend does but at a different company. I told her we shouldn’t wait until yesterday to do it but it was the only time she was free. So we went down there and online they said they we had to apply in person. Tried to apply in person and the woman said we could apply online. So feeling like we got the runaround we gave up. Especially since the listing wasn’t there anymore. So I’m going to wait.
Hopefully something will open up that will accomodate my schedule and give me the kind of pay I deserve.
