...Heading to Hell.
What a week--and it's not even over.
Boss man is on vacation. Has been since the 6th, and should be back sometime next week. I think.
Two people had given their notice and last week was their last.
Assistant manager was kinda nervous, because inventory is coming up this weekend, and she's never done it all by herself. (From what I've heard, they usually have inventory every three weeks, and that's what Bossman was expecting...instead, it's two weeks. Ooooops.)
On Sunday, one of the guys came in, worked a bit, and walked out mid-shift*. (What a shame...I liked him...)
Not related to anything, really, but happened at work-- Also on Sunday, there was a fight between two customers near the meat department. Heard there were punches thrown, but that hasn't been confirmed.
One of the night girls was scheduled to be on vacation this week*.
OK, no biggie, it might be a bit difficult, but together we can all still have things run smoothly.
On Monday, the assistant manager's father died*. She's out for the rest of the week.
*MASSIVE rescheduling needed.
Girl on vacation? Comes in. Now gets paid her vacation time AND the hours she's working.
Other people are getting mad overtime, even though when I asked, because the man of the household is between jobs, I was told no.
Night supervisor? Working mornings to help out, and came in on scheduled day off.
One of the salad bar ladies? For some reason (not connected to the rest of the mess) is working at least half an hour later than scheduled every day. (Except two, that I know of.)
Today, the iced tea machine decided to spontaneously overflow. It was my fault, only because I'd said this morning that we're doing a damn good job, all things considered. I'm bad luck.
I don't have a clue who made up next week's schedule, if it was made at all. How's inventory going to go? Not a clue.
Let's hope things get better...and we all retain what sanity we have left...
BTW, thanks for reading. I just had to get it all out...
