This is actually a follow-up to post I wrote about 2 weeks ago under this link
http://www.customerssuck.com/board/s...ead.php?t=3411
This post should probably go under the Management forum b/c its really about the much hated DM but, the whole incident started with a customer.
Well I'm getting ready for work yesterday and the Store Manager calls my house and ask If its cool if I come in early b/c the DM was at the store and he wanted to have a "One-on-one" with me.
WTF!!!
Was it not enough that he had me written up for "misconduct"!? Apparently not. So I get to work and go into the Managers office and there sits the DM and my SM. Now as I said before the Store Manager is a really cool guy, but he is also kind of a pushover. Especially when it comes to dealing the DM (with the write up, he didn't bother saying anything the DM about it, he just didnt seem to really care that much) Now I know its just a write-up and not that big of a deal but, the unjust really gets under my skin. I knew there was no way I deserve that write-up, but I got one anyways. It may not be that big of a deal but, it still pisses me off.
Anyways as you can imagine the DM immediately jumps down my back about how the customer was royally offended at my not only assulting his "finger" but also, in some weird crazy sense accusing him of stealing. (Well, when you put your hand inside the till...) So the conversation goes something like this.
A-Hole DM: I got a call from (Jackass customer that got his finger smashed), and he said that what you did was not only embarressing and rude, you were also suggesting that he was a thief!
At this point I am Blood red with anger and I let my DM have it.
Me: HIS HAND ALMOST WENT INTO MY DRAWER!!! WHAT WAS I SUPPOSSED TO DO! LET HIM TAKE MONEY FROM THE TILL!
You know I am not normally an aggressive person and I almost never raise my voice to anyone but, I was just so pissed about the whole incident I just lost myself.
DM: (After a moment) You need to chill out... Here take this (He throws a squishy stress ball at me with a big obnoxious grin on his face)
So you think all of this is funny do you!?
That moment was the straw that broke the camels back. I looked at the DM, looked at my SM then looked at the stress ball and chucked that son-of-a-bitch as hard as I possibly could at the wall behind the desk where the SM was sitting. It made a wonderful LOUD thud sound and stuck for a second before hitting the ground leaving a nice little sticky nasty residue.
The DM and the SM are just staring at me in utter disbelief (particuarly my store manager because he knows I am a easygoing guy 99% of the time and this was just not like me.)
I stormed out and went to the warehouse (my personal store sanctuary) to cool off. The SM comes back there and basically tells me if I don't apalogize to the DM I am going to get fired and how I shouldn't have gone off like that blah blah blah. So apparently the DM thinks that if I lose my temper in front of him like that, it must mean I lose my temper in front of customers all the time!
Yep, thats how I act all the time. A complete and total asshole that loses his temper like a little child and therefore must be terminated.
So I sulk over the the Managers office (while being bombarded with questions from my co-workers about the yelling and loud noises). I finally make it back to the the managers office and the conversation went something like this
DM: You need to WRITE a personal apalogy letter to ME (there he goes thinking of himself again) and the customer for your behavior. We are in a professional enviroment and if you can't act professional then you have no business working here.
And this is the part where I display the not-quite-so-proudest moment of my life
Me: (Giving him the One Finger salute) (Screw) you and (screw) this job. You can take those "Apology Letters" and cram 'em right up your ass!! You are a sick slimey son of a bitch who makes everyone's life around you a living hell. I do NOT intend to apologize for PROTECTING COMPANY ASSESTS. And just because you insist on sucking the customers (manhood) that doesn't mean I am going to. You can go to hell!!
And I walked out. Yeah I am expexting a couple of pissed off calls from a few people. Oh well screw 'em, I'm going to the military in a couple months. I didn't need that job. Besides I've already applied to a couple other retail jobs and have even gotten a few calls. (One from the major electronics retail store that rhymes with Best Lie) All I want is a decent drama-free day job to pass the time and to make some extra cash until I go into the military. Anyone out there that works at the Best Lie, let me know about your experience.
BTW I am finishing this approximately 4 hours after the incident. I started it around the time I got home. So tonight I am looking foward to a FUN night for me and a couple friends (It's been a long time that I have not had to work morning the next day and I think I scored myself a nice little vacation)
