Work is getting worse and worse. Suddenly, none of us lowly cashiers have
any idea of what's going on, and the chaos is really wearing on people. All
this after just one week. I am stuck in the position of having to have
control over situations taht I have zero knowledge of. There's just too much
policy change to deal with, and nobody has told me anything.
And my schedule may be forcibly changed. And I dont' want to be put in the
position of doing thing that I believe are not in the store's best interest,
because the store disagrees. It may be time to move. Today has been
extremely frustrating.

Had to threaten legal action to get what I am owed. Hate that.
Ugly family issues which I am fortunately not directly involved in, but
which will taint holiday family gatherings for all. Yuck!

I missed my brother today. He spent Thanksgiving with his fiancee's family,
and his absence was apparent. My mom thought it was hilarious that after a
childhood of arguing and fighting I was actually upset about Adam NOT being
around. Heh...

I am bummed because none of the bitches I lived with cleaned up my house
at all even though none of them had to work or anything. They keep
leaving hair all over the place too and yesterday they got muddy paw
prints *everywhere*. Damn bitches!

We had another flood in our basement on Sunday: about 1.5 inches before
the sewer plug apparently cleared itself and drained. Fortunately, it was
"grey water" (mostly - we think - no odor), probably backed up in the
sewer line because a house guest we had over Thanksgiving was flushing her
tampons down the toilets (without our knowledge - but then, we don't have
signs up asking that sanitary napkins, etc, not be flushed).
Took about six hours to remove soaked boxes and mop up the residual water.
Basement is now in chaos and being dried out with fans and additional
heat. Didn't lose a great deal of value, except for a box of stuffed dolls
and puppets that really soaked up the water.
Well, it wasn't as bad as the 16 inches of sanitary sewage that backed up
into the basement in 1993 when a street sewer plugged.

night before thanksgiving. i was not happy.

Yeah, when I was a little kid, I once thought it would be a good idea to
clean the cat box by dumping the entire box of litter into the toilet. I
remember thinking "This is so easy, why hasnt anyone thought of this
before?"
heh heh. I was in *big* trouble.

Well, I tried the flushable litter, that's made from paper, after my cat's
declaw surgery. She went in there, sniffed around, and started flinging it
out of the box. Never did that again. I'm stuck with the clay. Which is
fine with me.

Got my left nasty finger stepped on in Aikido last night. Sore, but
fortunately still good for typing.

IBB I am in such a horrid mood. I am also fed up with people who do not
listen. If another customer calls and does not listen as I explain why they
do not have their microfilm, I am going to snap at them. It is bad enough
I had to actually ask a person to listen for a moment.

Paycheck was much smaller than it should have been due to an HR error. It
won't be fixed until *next* pay period (so they say). Idiots.

Ask for a pay advance to offset there error if you really need
it. Or ask for 50% if you need at least 50% of it.

I would say ask for 50% only if you need at most 50% of it. If they're
supposed to pay you, they need to pay you.

The boots-that-actually-fit-my-big feet turned out to have an unexpected
feature of digging into my right ankle with the tongue flap, and while the
store (Footprints on Main) was nice enough to order another pair, they did
the same damn thing.
Now I've got to keep looking, with a lot of stores already found to be lacking
in 13+ sizes. Bleah.

There's a sure fire way to ensure you can fit your feet into any pair
of shoes, Scott. Cut your toes off...or your whole foot. :) That's what
my mum used to threaten me when my shoes didn't fit. (But, then again,
when I have headaches she suggests we amputate at the neck...)

my dad is a size 13 shoe... he usually ends up getting way expensive
shoes. But they last a long time.
IBB most of my grad school colleagues drink heavily. Which would be ok,
except I'm getting tired of trying to talk to drunk-ass people.
