Work: A Rant
I try not to talk about work too much here. Somedays I just want to quit and actually get some good old student loans. (not really) But tonight was just annoying.
As you may know, I work in a Service Deli. And at the particular Deli I work in, there is an Ice Cream Machine. On monday nights we are very popular with the whole family night + cheap ice cream = happy families. Unfortunately, it does not always equal happy deli workers. Especially when it gets very busy, and I don't get a break, and people are making ice cream cones at the same time I am (with one machine! Can't you just wait until I'm finished!!!). You get the idea. It's easy to get bugged. The thing that really set me off, though, was right when we were closing. I was the last person doing ice cream cones, and I was at one register.
A coworker, Announcement Queen, came up behind me, put a closed sign on the register and said to the people in line "go to the next register, please" (now, we do have two).
I asked her, "are you going to be helping them"
"no," she replied. So, I asked her why she shut down my register.
"because the other ones closer to the ice cream machine" was her reply.
You know what, I don't care which one is closer to the ice cream machine. I liked the register I was using, I didn't think I had to make those people move, and I despise people telling me what to do, especially since it doesn't matter. Now, I know it doesn't matter, and maybe I shouldn't get upset over such little things, but I do. And I think I can be bugged by a few things. I’ll get over it. I didn’t say anything, and right now I’m not even that upset, but I was furious then. And I work with her tomorrow. I just hope I can handle this until I start school and go part-part time. :D

If you feel so inclined, leave a thought. It doesn't even have to make sense!
