<div class="IPBDescription">Summer job rant</div>and yes, it is a rant: Here was the conversation between me and my manager after I took finals week off (M is manager, J is me) BTW, I work in a deli at a local super market
M: hey, how'd you break your finger?
J: Some girl fell into me and knocked me on my butt. I broke it trying to break my fall
M: Well, I can't put you on sub shop or slicing meats, but I can have you doing permanent cleanup for the next few weeks
J: That's a joke, right?
M: No, I'm serious, your full time now
J: What?!?!?!?!?!?!? (cursewords tactfully held back)
M: Rember our conversation a few months ago about you going fulltime once school was out?
J: Oh, yea. (/me also remembers forgetting to tell my manager about the fact that I was quitting the start of the fall semester)
M: you are able to work, your doctors note says so, so I can't give you off on medical leave- one of the parts about being fulltime.
J: well, what about my days off I requested months ago when I was part time?
M: Since your fulltime now, that doesn't mean that you'll automatically get every time off request you ask for.
J: Does that mean that mother's day, Ozzfest, and my roadtrip are cancelled?
M: Umm.... well... I couldn't give you off on mother's day because everyone else asked for it off... I'm not allowed to give you more than a week off now that you're full time, so your three week roadtrip to california can't happen. but I can give you the day off for Ozzfest. *she finally says cheefully*
J: YOu know I'm going to be drunk when I come back from ozzfest like I usually am on sundays after raves.
M: Oh yea, and I can't let you take off on sundays to recover from your parties anymore.
J: but what if I find religion and working on sundays is forbidden
M: at the bottom of a bottle?
J: good point.
M: See you tomorrow then? *she says again in her most cheerful voice*
J: yea..... */me is really straining not to curse her out* Oh, and one thing, you scheduled me to work during my jazz ensemble rehearsals, and I KNOW that you work around the other fulltimer's hobby nights *I say in my most cheerful voice*
M: But you can't play the sax with your broken finger
J: ####!. Point taken. See you tomorrow then. */me grumbles as I walk out the door*
YES! I AM A SLAVE TO PUBLIX FOR THE REST OF THE SUMMER!!!!! I can't wait until I give her my 2 weeks quitting notice in august. >:)
