I may not be right, I'm gonna tell it like I see it.
I had a talk with Thomas today about things that I may do to get the help I need to fix my departments. I will take his advice to make sure that my voice is heard.
In the end, if things don't go right, I can say that I tried. I will begin tomorrow to talk with the co-manager to get the ball rolling. I need to make some notes today.
My sinuses are bothering me. I was wondering when I would start getting sick. I started to feel sick yester evening. I may end up going to the doctor. If I can ever get there. I have the weekend off and no weekday. Great. I'm gonna let them know that I may end up at the doctor if I don't get better.
I am tired and cold. I plan on keeping up with my blog. It has been hit or miss lately.

Bat Shit Crazy
Ok. I should always keep my composure at work. I've been on edge for a few weeks now. I've been living in the moment a lot. I mean way too much. Too much going on.
My mind races at ninety miles an hour every day. I can't turn it off. There is no off switch ok?! My anxiety has been high. I have been having trouble trying to fix the broken frozen and dairy department. I transferred from the market to a supercenter. I'm back at a supercenter.
I am gonna back track for a few moments here. I worked at the market for a few months. I always felt the store manager did not like me. I always heard him talking to other people freely. I had to be the first to speak before he even spoke a word to me. It's fine. Whatever floats his boat I reckon. I am done with that store and his chip that's on his shoulder. I took the high road and did not get so emotionally obsessed about it. I tend to do that. There was not a lot to do after everything was done. I let the other associate know the she rocked! I also let the new girl know that she will do fine with that job. I am genuinely happy she has something new to learn. I hope she does well in the cash office.
Now back to the present. I knew I was walking into a mess with this new job. It seems that they sugar coated some of the mess. Ok. Fine. Whatever. Now give me the resources to fix it already. Don't make me keep hitting a brick wall. I will find a way to bypass it. I'm resourceful and a survivor. The only thing you can fire me for is being too damn good so bring it on!
I walked in to a bat shit crazy event today. Overnight there was a cleaning crew that was supposed to clean the bottom shelves of my side counters. They did a half ass job. There was dirty water still on the shelves. It smelled like a fishy wet dog in my dairy department. I had 14 grocery carts in the meat department. Can anyone say cross contamination? That should not happen. Period. I have zero tolerance for anything being in the meat department even though it is NOT my department. The grocery carts are a violation of policy and compliance. I have zero tolerance for that as well. There is no reason why people couldn't have used the other carts. Lazy is what it is. If they needed the product pulled, I would have gotten my associates to help pull it. Stupid.
I have slim help. One of my associates quit. Didn't bother to show up even though it was his last week. Really? Whatever. Another associate may get pulled to third AGAIN! That leaves me with two associates.
I get the scoop that people can pass the drug test or background check. WTF is wrong with people knowing that they are going for a job interview and possible a drug test. I mean, you can't stay the hell off drugs long enough to pass a drug test knowing that you may get called in for an interview at any time. That is stupid. It seems to be an epidemic of a disease called stupidity. It's not humanity I hate, it's the stupidity rampage that is sweeping the world!
I managed to get the shelves cleaned with the help of other associates with whom I thanked so greatly for helping me. They did not have to. I am blessed. My morning was pretty much screwed.
That is life.
