9th April 2009: Last night was a really dull one.  Hardly any customers, no trouble, and The Bombshell was in a mood.  I have no idea what set it off, he was in a bad mood when he arrived.  He claimed he hadn't slept.  So I offered him some of my chocolate covered espresso beans.  He ate them and perked up.  And then fell back into his foul mood.  I mean, he literally said half a dozen words to me between 11pm and 3am. Then Teeny came in.  She has a crush on the petrol delivery driver.  So she came in at 3am and made him a load of bacon sandwiches.  She asked The Bombshell if he wanted one, and he just smiled at her.  I mean, the guy is an absolute arse when he is in a bad mood.  Then there was the fact that he said to her that he thought she was sleeping with the driver.  She giggled and said "Oh I wish mate!  But I am a woman, and I have needs, and you are lovely!"  He screamed like a woman and yelled "I am no jealous!" But then I exacted revenge on him.  I offered him the same deal I offered Slaphead.  I'd do the chilled, meat and produce if he did the ambient.  He agreed, and despite us both having 160 cases, I had to finish one of his cages for him.  Much to his annoyance.  I did smile at him and told him that I was the best at what I do on any given night.  He snorted and said "I am the busy, I am no have time for games".  I grinned and said "I am the one on the tills, serving customers.  I have worked the bread, the meat, the produce and the chilled.  You are still on the ambient".  He sulked off. And then Queen Chav came in and tried to be all bolshy with me.  It didn't work because I turned on the charm.  And that did work.  She asked The Bombshell if he had any issues on his shift, and he just pushed past her into the office.  At which point she turned to me and said "Ok, fine.  Any issues TSM?"  I told her that there were none, until The Bombshell came up to me and screamed "I am only haved the one day off on this rota!  Why?"  So I went through the rota with him and showed him his days off, then turned back to Queen Chav and said "Actually, I do have an issue.  Why do I STILL need to explain the rota to the man who is my supervisor?"  She laughed and we discussed my going on a course.  I am damned if I am going on it.  It's a 4 day course, which means one day on days.  To hell with that.  I don't do days. And tonight I am off.  So I am planning on doing a little programming after I post this, then watching Hostel 2 whilst I chat with my beautiful girlfriend.  Well, it was £2.99 at work, and I figure I deserved a treat after trouncing the two men in terms of performance, who are supposed to be in charge of me and are supposed to be making me look slow.  Lastly, I have a new toy.  A Nokia E90.  It's a satnav, MP3 player, digital camera and mobile phone all in one.  It's a business smartphone which I am running on a pay as you go sim card.  It's one of the Nokia Communicator range, and I have to say I already love it.  Thing is - Nokia Communicators are amazing.  Yes, ok, they are bricks, but the look on people's faces when you open it up and reveal not just a QWERTY keyboard but a 2nd screen which is widescreen is so good.  And if I can blog from it, I am going to have a good go at doing so.  Permalink |
