Here its in the last dying days of June. My life nowadays consists of WORK WORK WORK...>_< No awesome summer break No vacation time I don't even get freakin July 4th off! Granted I get paid time and a half but still. I wanna go to a beach dive in the waves, build a sandcastle, search for seashells. Just to go somewhere and relax for a day or so. I'd even settle for a lake but not anywhere near Camp Crystal Lake. No thanks on the whole fighting a hockey mask wearing psycho wielding a machete.
I remember the days I was in college being bummed about having only 3 weeks of summer break. Three weeks with NO MONEY to do anything. Now I have money but NO TIME off! >_< Everyone around me gets to go on vacations, parties, amusement parks etc. Me I sit in my dark cubby hole of an office answering phones all day. :Ring: "Thank YOU for calling Best Buy Pittsburgh Mills, This is Tabitha your Sales Operator Slave how may I help you...
Ah my job where shall I begin first off its not all bad. I love the atmosphere and most of my coworkers. I get tons of thanks everyday from customers I help. Everyone appreciates me and I do feel a part of the team. (As corny as that sounds XD) The one dark spot of my job is the coworker whom is a royal pain in my ass. But this certain coworker is a pain in everyone's ass.
One of those coworkers that kinda moves in and tries to take over grabbing the glory for themselves. Everyone picks on them doesn't appreciate the work they do blah blah whine whine. That certain coworker tried to pull their bullshite with me. Saying I wasn't doing my job. Well I nipped that in the bud right away. With the help of my other coworkers and supervisors.
Turns out this is what the pain does to competition. Making it so they are the only star left. Well so sorry I sure as hell was not gonna be pushed to the side. Plus I had backup and documentation so thankfully the BS lasted only one week. The pain now knows not to mess with me and quickly apologized at our dept meeting.
The latest crap they've been pulling is all these days off lately. I don't quite mind having their money for calling off. XD But its ridiculous that everyone has to bend backward so the pain can have their days off. I had to take this past Sunday off cause I had No Ride. Managers where informed of this the Monday before and okayed my absence. The pain wasn't even their that Sunday which I was suppose to be covering them. I came in the following Monday afternoon to hear they were bitchin about how I WASN'T There Sunday.
My fellow coworkers stood up for me saying. "Um Tabitha already told the managers and it was excused". The pain replied,"Oh Well :huffed: she was suppose to be covering me." My coworkers in Geek Squad retorted, "She had NO RIDE how do you expect she be here?!? Besides what about all the times you can't be here?" That shut the pain up and then they quickly tried to change the subject. BUSTED don't let your mouth write checks your ass can't cash.
Yeah sorry about the rant but its been a HUGE Stress button dealing with all that high school wah wah BS. The above stories are just a taste of the crap the pain pulls. But at least I'm not alone in the fight. Very grateful for my awesome coworkers whom are also great friends. They help me with pretty much anything I need. Love working next to Geek Squad being a huge geek myself. When we aren't too busy we talk about everything from Sci-Fi to Anime.
There are battles of which is the best anime Cowboy Bebop gets no argument as one of the top. Then I brought up my pick for top ten one of my favorite Fullmetal Alchemist. One of the Geek Squad blew a raspberry saying he'd rather watch DbZ. O_O Now I like DbZ but FMA is WAY WAY a Googleplex times better than DbZ. So we hashed it out anime style over why FMA is better in storyline, character development, music score! >_< I fight for what I love and do not back down.
One of our managers walked in on one of our epic battles. He looked at us both shook his head and said damn otakus with a smirk and left. O_O WHAT!! we chased after him and the Geek Squad guy tagged him with a huge recycle sticker. That manager is a huge Sci-Fi fan and picks on us all the time for liking anime so much.
So to sum it up I do love my job at Best Buy. I'd just like to have some time off this summer. Here's hoping! ^_^ Have a great summer everyone!
