psalm_onethirtyoneFacts:
1) They said they mailed my paycheck last Friday, and it hasn't come yet.
2) My manager spent the entire shift harassing me about my political leanings, despite the fact that I told him it was an unprofessional conversation topic and not appropriate for the employee/employer dynamic, and asked him not to talk to me about it. He did this constantly. He would come up while I was talking to other employees and get started on this. And, God, he was so offensive. And I did lose it at one point, when he said that environmentalism was a crock because Al Gore drives a limosine. Yes, I said. And Thomas Jefferson kept slaves. But that didn't make his message, that slavery is wrong, any less true. Nor is environment any less important because the people who talk about it may or may not be hypocrites. And then I felt really guilty because I had lost my temper, but GOD. He did this to me ALL DAY.
3) And he made me do all the bad jobs, like vacuuming the bugs, and followed me around telling me I was doing it wrong the whole time.
4) And then he sent me home two hours before the end of my shift, even though we were busy.
5) And I only made six dollars in tips to-day.
6) Also, my other manager lost the paper she had written my social security number on.
7) Also, despite the fact that when I was hired I explained that I have another job on Fridays, they have tried to schedule me on Fridays.
8) And I said second shift was better than first shift, and I have never been given a second shift.
Conclusions:
1) I hate this job.
2) I promised to work for three more weeks; I suck enormously.
