Well today was terrible, I hope I don't get fired.
I was at work today at Checker's. Just myself and another person. We were super busy. We had a line of cars. Then in between the cars there was an Uber driver. We normally have them go into another lane. But since he was in between cars I could not have him pull out. I kept him in line. When the customer came, I was trying to hand him his food to deliver but my manager for some reason wanted him to actually pull around while we were in the middle of a rush, like whats the point in wasting all that time? He ordered a drink as well so I mean what is the actual problem? I thought my manager was being silly so I went to grab the food to hand out, but she literally grabbed the bag and we had a split second of tug of war with the food.
I was already stressed out but then a customer in the lobby straight up came outta nowhere and started yelling about how she's recording what happened. She went totally out of her way to target me and claim that I was being unprofessional and I was just being horrible and that her food was taking too long because of me? There's two of us back there how is she gonna assume I'm the problem? It was ourageous.
I started arguing back because I felt harassed and attacked and I was just trying to keep the line moving. Yeah I get that part was unprofessional but like how is she gonna record me and then just come at my neck?
I could have handled it better. Customer is always right yadayadayada. I get it. But it already happened so I'm not gonna just act like I was just awful. I'm not going to get wildly disrespected. It was literally two of us back there.
I won't get into too many other details but man I was borderline emotional because I'm really not trying to get fired.
I literally bought my bike yesterday and was feeling good about continuing to work and just get this money. But now who knows what might happen.
I did not need this today.
I gotta pull out more crypto to just get to work because I needed a cig so bad after this crap. I wanted to leave so bad, I already assumed I was gonna get fired but yeah.
Funny thing is, my manager actually thought what was happening was racist because that women straight up singled me out and put the blame on the entire thing on me. I work in a city of majority black and Hispanic folk and I'm always like the random white guy. My manager is Mexican. Racism did cross my mind but heaven forbid I mention it as the white dude, the fact that it was mentioned by somebody else was kinda interesting. Was it sexist too?
Was I just the victim of a hate crime? LMAO. I literally don't care either way. She can be hateful I'll defend myself. I'm not a victim. It is what it is.
I stayed the day, I might not even get fired but holy crap that was annoying.
I am just gonna meet with Miss Mary and play some Madden. I pray to God nothing bad happens with my employment.
Blah.
