09. Trying to transfer

I take little pleasure in terminating people…

...but sometimes a little is all it takes. I fired two people tonight, but one of them managed to get herself unfired. I'm a little cranky about that one because we were right to can her and it was only overturned because *if* it had gone to our district HR person he would have overturned…

Much Better Night

ToyMan
December 15, 2008
So the senior mnager working overnights with me waltzed in around 2100 (we're scheduled at 1945). Must be nice. Said she wanted to give me some advice, just some things I was doing I should do differently. So she told me. I told her that she didn't get a fair appraisal of my abilities the…

Can I be back on sixty hours please?

ToyMan
December 14, 2008
OK, it's taken me a few shifts and a royal screwing this morning to realize that the new senior manager who's working overnights with me is not being my partner, she's being my senior manager. Let me explain: when AlaskaMan came to thirds to help out because one of my classmates quit he did my&he...

Amazing things and what the heck?

ToyMan
December 11, 2008
The amazing thing is that I got to walk out of work a full half-hour early today. The store looked good and the senior manager got there a little early and walked us off and said to go before Queeg got there or we'd be there another ninety minutes. So we ran. OK, so the…

I’m so tired

ToyMan
December 9, 2008
Really, I am. We've been on five twelve-hour days since AlaskaMan left (seven or eight weeks). Now that we have a new senior manager we've been cut back to the normal four twelve-hour days for the next two weeks. I spent most of the past two days sleeping. Critter came over for a bit yesterday&he...

December 7, 2008
Well, work has well and truly screwed me again. Since I haven't told the involved parties I'm going to post this as private for now so I can get it down, but I'll unmask it once everyone is in the loop. My days off changed again. So I have to change the date for my…

The Quick and the Tired

ToyMan
December 4, 2008
Wasn't originally going to post anything, but I changed my mind. Queeg will be leaving my store in a few weeks, transferring to another store. I guess that's good, but I can't help having the things about "the devil you know" going through the back of my mind. Ember and Amber and Bun st...

December 3, 2008
Ember, Amber and Bun are coming up for a doctor visit and to run around town some. They'll be staying over with me tonight, I've put sheets and blankets for them on the guest bed and i've changed the sheets on mine so they'll only have been slept on the one time (this morning) so…

So yeah, it snowed

ToyMan
December 1, 2008
Yep, it snowed. Nothing huge though, just enough to cover the deck, and even that was gone by the time the sun went back down. Been talking and texting my date, that seems to be going well. She mentioned that I never seem to say anything, and looking back on it she's right, I haven't…
