Help me yell at him in his own language

Nothing really important enough to post for. But maybe if I type here, it'll rev up my engines and give me some energy.

Didn't realize it was still girl scout cookie season... As such, I had to buy more 'caramel delights'... because dude, they are just that awesome.

I hate Saturday night tv. There is NOTHING GOOD ON

I don't have work tomorrow, but I do have to go to a meeting. That is unpaid. And will probably involve lots of yelling. Everyone at the store is fed up with each other, and while I'm probably just as annoyed at them all as they are at me, I'd prefer to not have a big confrontation. It's the sort of thing that won't solve anything, and everyone will just get defensive and even more angry at each other. I feel like an ass saying it, but I sort of hope it will lead to Dan quitting. He's clearly unhappy, and he's making everyone else miserable at the same time. But he *somehow* believes that he's the only reason the store is still being run.

Sigh, drama. I don't need this crap. I'm not exactly feeling all that cheerful about life in general; I don't need my worklife getting any more stressful.

There is, apparently, a super-cute young cat that runs around our yard/neighborhood. SOMEHOW, my sister thinks I'm interested in such a thing. I'm still heartbroken about Kittanna; how how HOW will that make me feel anything but bad?

Sorry ya'll, it's been a generally crappy week. Dan's been on the warpath, Marc's gotten more days off than anyone but the GAs, and ... well, there just hasn't been anything morale-boosting going on. Trying to snap myself out of this funk, and I really should, because it's been generally nice out lately, but I just feel very meh.

uhm. think happy thoughts? Sunflowers?

Hilarious meeting story: (though, this meeting was paid, didn't make it any better) Last summer there were like NO kids coming to the tutoring place where I work, we all got shitty hours and dealt with it. The only reason my hours were sorta good was I was willing to work all Sunday, which most are not. Also, the manager in charge of scheduling is a twit (thank the paycheck gods she went to another center) and apparently just cut some people out of the schedule entirely.

So, our first meeting in September when one of the most vocal staff members finally gets some hours she starts yelling at everyone in the room "We are PROFESSIONALS, lets ACT LIKE IT" and blamed us all equally for not being fair with spreading the hours around.

The only one with any control of the schedule was the one manager.

Personally, I thought the lady had been on vacation or something...she was literally NOT on the schedule at all for 3 months, and thought she was fired or something. Our manager never even called her to explain.

So, I get she was pissed, but that shit was ridiculous.

Th-That sort of reminds me of how the other employees complain to me when they don't get the hours they want. Lol, only the manager (and sometimes the asm) can fix the schedule at all.

But, that's just completely unbelievable! they didn't tell her at all?? I would be uber pissed too, lol. But... I mean... maybe she should have said something? Like.. call or something...
