Work Shtuffs

So, reading back, it occurs to me that the last time I really posted, I informed everyone that (due to my new relationship) I was moving up to the service desk. And so here is my work drama from the last year:


Two weeks following that post (yeah they trained me 11 days before x-mas.. blah), I moved up to become a customer service rep. Fun times! 3 people quit during or directly following the holidays, so I worked 35 to 40 hours a week while in school 2nd and 3rd term (BLAH).

THEN Brad and I decided to move in together. We both talked with our store manager and he told us it was okay. Little did we know that he had not actually discussed this with Chuck, our regional human resources manager. Chuck told him that it was NOT okay and that (by now we had already moved) one of us had to go. So he told Tim, our store manager, to fire me. AND HE SAID NO. He said he valued me too much. So chuck told him to take Brad's keys away (demote him), AND HE SAID NO AGAIN. This time cuz Brad's like the best damn thing to ever happen to that store and we all know it. So Chuck told Tim to do something, or he might get fired.

Miraculously at the same time I was dealing with some employees who were treating me differently (and I mean like total shit) because of my relationship. I went to Tim and said I couldn't take it anymore and that I didn't deserve to be treated like this. He jumped at the opportunity and (while making it sound like he was doing it for me even though he was really doing it to save his own ass) moved to be a cashier in the PHARMACY in late May.

Once school got out and inventory fun was done and over with, he moved me there permanently. In August I got my Tech License
And that is how I got to be a Licensed Pharmacy Technician.

In other news Brad is Bend working to make the ShopKo over there better, and I haven't seen him for 3 days. This is after he was there for 3 days last week, and on overnites for 5 weeks before that. BLAH. I miss my boyfriend. He is really the only non-school or work contact I get anymore. He was supposed to come back tonite, but now I'm hearing that they want to keep him til tomorrow afternoon. BLAH AGAIN. And then!! even after all that crap, he will be home saturday nite and sunday, and then they take him AGAIN on monday morning. for a whole flippin' week this time!! GAH!!!!!!

So if anyone who reads this has any free time between classes or after school and would like to hang out if I have the same free time and/or don't have to work.... let me know. Cuz I'm lonely.

You could come over and meet my new kitty!! (well I got her in July but she's probly new to you!)
