More work stories… including the most pointless shift ever…. and Sam continues to be on a roll of fail.
So yeah… suck shift of 7:30-12AM. On July 4th. Everyone is partying…. no one is shopping. Plus there were 3 of us there until midnight and 5 of us there until 10. After like 9 PM…. there were no no no customers. I mean 5 FE employees and no people in the store. Just retarded…. thanks Mr. Dwyer. I was fucking bored out of my mind…. all night long…. I think the Video Box got more business than our store while I was there.
Even worse…. there was no CDH scheduled all day until Paul at 6 PM. Oh my God… and on July 4th when it was packed all morning. Joan came in to do some shopping and said she never got off register all morning and had all registers going with people from every other department on them ringing to help…. and no CDH was scheduled. What the Fuck!
Fawn came in at 4 I think and said everything was a mess… none of the registers had any low bills… and every register had like $2000.00 in big bills. Just a mess… they were doing insertions and not keeping track… just nightmarish.
So when I when to audit all of the drawers and balance the podium… everything was off. 9 was +$148.00, 7 was -$49.00, the podium was +$150.00. There was an insertion into register 9 for $300.00 that we couldn’t seem to make balance anywhere. Total mess…. Paul Kelly had to right like a 5 page note to try and explain what we think might have happened, etc. Also…. the big awesome surprise of the night… who was on the drawer that was short $50…… Sam. She just keeps popping up where disaster happens. Seriously… I’m so done with her.
And Fawn is both pissed at her… and on the warpath to have Paul Dwyer disciplined or kicked out of our store. She’s had it…. because his scheduling for today was a joke… no CDH’s all day and like 13 people at night when there was going to be no customers….. just a fucking mess. And that’s besides all the shit he’s pulling with giving no one the hours they want and scheduling people when they can’t work. And I’ll add also being incompetent as a CDH… because he’s clueless at that too.
Other than that shit… the shift was a blast. I love working with Fawn. I covered her break to start… and then I hung out in the service desk and we played the game of… “How long do I think I can stay in the service desk before someone notices I shouldn’t be in there.” Fawn bet it would take 45 minutes. It took about 42 before Paul came by to get me. But before that Bill came by and talked to both of us and didn’t seem to care there were two of us back there doing nothing. It was amusing.
Also…. I got to hang some with my brother who came in twice… with Dave Coffey…. who invited me over… but I hate him… and with Adam and Kevin… all of which kept me occupied during my boredom of June and Paul.
