Let's just call this "shitty Saturday." First of all, the roads were a total mess this morning. They were like a sheet of ice and there were accidents happening all over the place. I had to get off the highway and take side roads because there were so many accidents they shut part of it down.
I normally get along with the manager that is here today. We usually talk about shows we watch, etc... Today I logged myself out for a couple of minutes to grab a diet coke from the vending machine and she called me out on it. She's like you can't just get up and go get a pop. That isn't the way it works. You need to come and ask me.
BULLSHIT. I can go to the bathroom or get a soda if I damn well please. I totally laid into her. I was like this is not high school. I am an adult and this is my place of employment. I don't need to ask you for a "hall pass" to get up from my desk. Normally I don't do that, but I also get here in plenty of time to do these things before work, but with the bad roads I only had 5 minutes to log into all systems. Heck, some people were more than an hour late for work. At least I was here on time. She eventually came up and said she didn't mean to "pick on me" but she didn't know where I went. (Not her business though) She was just recently promoted to the management team and I think the "power" is going to her head. I am not the type of person to just roll over though. I'm not afraid to say when things aren't right!
Since then I've had nothing but seriously dumb customers to deal with. And yes.. we are just as busy as I anticipated. At least I'm going to lunch in 10 minutes. Not that I can EAT anything though!!! I had oatmeal for breakfast (2 pts) and a hard boiled egg for lunch (2 pts). Of course I'm starving, but I'm trying to save up points for the candle party that sister is having tonight! I know there will be drinks and snacks that I will have to avoid unless I starve myself today.

Sorry about your shitty Saturday. I hope it gets better. And I bought a veggie tray so you have plenty to snack on while your here.
