| 22nd Januay 2009: Interesting Nights, Jaffa Cake Tag, Drunk Antics, Whinging Co-Workers, and SF Are Fair To Their Workers Streaming Song Of The Day: Brian Molko - 20th Century Boy Free MP3 Of The Day: Krumb Snatcha - Feelin' (Not Safe For Work) Krumb Snatcha - Hidden Scriptures (Not Safe For Work) So, tonight has been WAY more interesting than the previous few nights. First of all, Miss C has declared that we are not working hard tonight as we deserve our last break. And so say all of us. Thing is, tonight is my last night before my night off. I was never going to bust a nut working tonight anyway. I know...not the attitude, but I work for a company that...well...I will get into that later! Tonight we have had our share of random customers. First of all we had drunks, who are lovely because they are regulars, playing tag in the store. Well...tag with a twist. If you get hit by a packet of flying jaffa cakes OR tagged, then you are it. I am seriously considering stealing this idea and franchising it to drunks across the country. Others must be aware of jaffa cake tag. The same drunks also did something that I found pretty amusing. They distracted the most sober member of their group, then emptied a case of creame eggs into his basket. And shook it up so they were distributed across the basket. He got so angry. And whilst he got angry, they put a bottle of cat milk in his basket. That tipped him over the edge and made him yell at them. They weren't finished. They popped a party popper in the guy's ear leading him to scream and shout "I can't f*cking hear! You've f*cking deafened me in one ear!" Then there is Miss C herself. My god. I was not kidding when I told The Scotsman that all I would be getting tonight would be complaining whinging. All night it has been "Well he hasn't done this" or "He didn't do that well did he" To the point where she has actually just interupted my break to tell me something he didn't do. My break. My me time. But the kicker of the night has been Queen Chav phoning me up. She wanted to know if I could work Friday. Well, unfortunately I have a party to go to on Friday. Which I told her when she phoned me. So then she asked whether or not I could work tonight. I mean...I have worked 10 days in a row. The SF equivilent of 2 weeks worth of shifts, and she asks me whether I can work one more? This is why I am looking at ways out of this place. I know all companies put demands on employees, but I felt like asking her why don't I just work another 4 days huh? Make it a fortnight without a day off. I've told her I will think about Friday and let them know tomorrow. Better be nice to me. Permalink | Tags: |
