I hate AMY!!

     Okay so I have this manager at work, whom I absolutely hate! Her name would be Amy and I am pretty sure she hates me as well, which is fine with me because as far as I am concerned she no longer exists.

     She used to love me when I was on the front end and the second I went back to sub shop she has hated me. I really don’t know why and I don’t really care, because nobody likes her and I heard that she will probably end up getting fired. Which I really hope she does get fired because she is just soooooo stupid! I don’t know who promoted her, but whoever it was is really stupid. You could sit there and have a whole conversation with her and she’s trying to listen, but you can tell she isn’t comprehending anything you say.

     So Saturday I worked from 2:30-9:30. We were so short handed. Usually there is at least 4 or 5 people on schedule for Saturday’s during the afternoon, but we had 5 people scheduled for the whole day. It wasn’t like we were slow or anything, no we were super busy. There was a coupon for a dollar off and plus it was just one of those days where everyone wanted a sub. The line was out the door and there were only 2 people working at one time. So in other words we got hammered.

    So usually on Saturday nights I ring up the things the demo department uses so that the things aren’t marked as stolen. Well it was quarter to eight and that was the first time all day that there was only one customer at the counter. So I called up the night manager (a.k.a. Amy) and told her I wasn’t going to be able to be able to do it because there was only one other person there and I couldn’t leave him there by himself. She had the nerve to tell me that he would be fine by himself and I should be able to get it done. I was like oh my God! ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Seriously so I had to fight with her and told her that I wasn’t going to do it, so it was up to her to figure out how to get it done.

    So I went up to the front end office and explained to her how to do it. You have to write down everyones hours and then ring up the things on a cash register. No that hard right? Then her fat butt looked at me and said she didn’t know what I was talking about and she didn’t have time to do it. Want to now why she couldn’t do it? Because she was eating chinese food! Then she had the nerve to tell me “I am not mad at you because you don’t have time to do it. I am mad because I don’t understand what to do.” I was like you are kidding right? How the hell did you become an STL if you don’t understand this! I can do your job better than you with my eyes closed! No I did not say that, but it took all of my strength to shut my mouth and not say it. So then I did tell her “You know what if you really can’t figure it out Nicole in prepared can do it because I don’t have time.” and then I walked out.

    I have never wanted to talk back to someone of authority (like my manager), but she pissed me off so bad. One of these days I am going to flip out on her because I can’t stand her! I swear I would if I wouldn’t lose my job.

Books

    So I absolutely love to read, but lately I just haven’t found the time. I usually read a chapter (at least) every night, but lately I haven’t been. This is mostly because I have been too tired considering I work six days a week plus school and homework. So reading isn’t exactly high on my list of things to do.

Right now I am reading this book by Janet Evanovich called Eleven On Top. It’s part of a series she writes. They are really funny books, and she is in love with two different guys which makes it even better. I am hoping she picks Ranger because he seems really hot. I know that sounds kind of weird, but I guess you have to read the book to understand.

I have a really bad habit when it comes to books. I will buy a ton and just end up reading one of them and then I will go buy some more. So I have like 20 or 30 books at home that I want to read, but I don’t because I just buy more new ones.

Tornados

    I have always loved the movie “Twister”. I even liked it when I was little. I really don’t know why I like it so much, maybe its the flying cows. That movie is just so interesting and suspenseful. Now there is this new show on the Discovery Chanel called “Storm Chasers”. It’s just like the movie except now its real.

     I absolutely hate science because its really confusing and I just don’t understand it. However I think that it would be really cool to actually chase a tornado. I mean could you imagine the adrenaline rush? I would have to drive though because if I die, I would want it to be my fault and not someone else’s. Plus I think I should be in charge considering it’s my life at risk.

    I really don’t know why I want to chase a tornado(s), but I think part of the reason is that I want to see it up close. I really don’t know if I would have the courage to do it though. However I do know that chasing tornado(s) is definitely one of my life goals and I would love to do that before I die. Actually I wouldn’t mind dieing that way either. I mean if I could choose how to die I think that might be on the top of my list. Now that I am thinking about it though it probably would be kind of painful. Although you could get to see the inside of a tornado and that would be pretty sweet too.

    I know this is changing the subject, but if I could choose how I would die I think I would just want to die in my sleep. Or maybe I would want to be carried away by a tornado. Or maybe I would just want to stop breathing. Or what if I was on a roller coaster and it crashed? That might be kind of interesting.

     How ever I die I just don’t want it to be painful. I mean imagine getting shot or stabbed. That would hurt a lot and I have always been afraid of that happening to me. Not that I have to worry about dieing anytime soon.

Work At Wegmans

    So today I had to work from 12:30 to 8:30. That would be a whole 8 hours well 7.5 with lunch. Whatever it still sucked. So i got there did the normal, punched in and went to go set up a demo. Well there was no demo sheet so i coulldn’t do a demo till like 1/2 hour later when I finally found it. So I had to get a cup of water for the ice cream scoop. I went to subshop (where I normally work) and got one. That is when my bad day started.

     I walked in there and said hi to everyone. Then Mayiah goes to me, “Guess What?” and I was like “What?” Then she told me I get to close with the new kid (who really isnt that new but hes the newest out of everyone) all by yourself. Now I have never closed where I am like the boss so it would be the first time. I was like ohhh no!!!! I seriously thought she was joking, but being the lucky person I am, she wasn’t kidding. So I asked Dan to stay later and help and he agreed so i was like I will be ok.

     I did my demo and got to talk with all of the cranky customers. At least I was demoing ice cream though because it was easy and I could eat whatever I wanted. It gets really boring though because I have no one to talk to and half the people just take it and run away or they just pretend you dont exsist. So I was like coool thats fine I dont wanto to talk to you anyways.

     So finally after a long two hours I got to go eat. Usually I eat my lunch with jenn (my bff), but she had to do work. So I ate lunch all by myself because no one else was on lunch (which like never happens because there is always someone to talk to). So I sat there and just texted random people.

    So I eneded lunch and went to subshop. Then Dan said he didn’t want to stay later so I was like thanks for all your help, appreciate it! I mean come on seriously help me out here. So it eneded up being me and the new kid for only an hour (which really wasn’t that bad). We worked our butts off, but we got out on time. Which is better than I can say for Dan because he never leaves on time. He always ends up being an hour or two later than closing.

    Everything was done and looking good so we called the night manager, so we could get permission to leave. Now she hates me and I hate her with a passion. No one likes her because she is mean to everyone for no reason. People are trying to get her fired, but we are so short handed we would just be s.o.l. in the end. There fore we just put up with all of her crap. She yelled at us for one little piece of lettuce that was still there. I was like screw you! This is my first time closing and I think I did a really good job! Of course I didn’t say that because I like my job and I want to keep it. All in all we ended up closing fine  and I was really proud of myself!

Me and my Mom

Me and my mom never ever get along. Well sometimes we do if she’s buying me something, but that’s only because I want something. This week however we have been getting in some pretty bad fights.

I swear this whole not-getting-along issue started when my parents first got divorced. The only time I can remember us being civil towards each other is before they got divorced. After the divorce my mom became a whole new person. This new person I couldn’t stand. With the divorce my mom needed someone to talk to and she turned to us. We were way to young to deal with everything she put on me and my sister. I also think I reminded her of my dad and I think she despised me for that.

My sister was always her favorite. I used to get so mad just because it was so obvious and it hurt. After a while I realized that would never change and I learned to except the fact that I would always be treated differently from her. I blocked out all the hurt from my mom and I just stopped caring. I began to feel resentful twoards her and I began to really dislike her.

Till this day we still dont get along and our fights last longer. I really don’t know if things will ever change nor do I really care.
