an update and a rant
Dec. 13th, 2004 05:33 pmFriday night, Sheri let me off an hour early, so I go in the bathroom and get changed for dinner with Tina. I come out, and Danielle's in the store. She's scheduled to work 6 to close. It's seven and she just got there. Doesn't have her Blockbuster uniform. She has the balls to ask if I can work till MIDNIGHT for her. Nope! Told her, "Nope, Sheri let me off an hour early, and I have plans."
Sunday, I spazzed out and completely forgot I had to be at the mall to work at Spencer's by 8 am. So I'm late and I'm up there by at least 9 instead. Erica says that Ryan has called off citing a hangover, and Tavares never even showed up. Sarah was late (I wonder why, she never said) and LaKeya was late because her car needed a jump. Barely made it out in time to get to Blockbuster on time.
Today, I thought I had the morning off, and I know I did because I double checked my schedule at both jobs. Nope! Jan calls up...apparently, I was supposed to be at the mall by 8 am AGAIN. I swear to God, someone penciled me in last minute and didn't notify me. So I worked 8 to 4 today. Get home maybe TEN MINUTES AGO, Mom tells me someone from the Schererville Blockbuster called up wondering if I could fill in tonight over there. NO! Then...I really hated to do this, but NIKKI called up, says she's sick, asks if I could fill in for her...and I love Nikki and everything (she's such a doll), but I really, REALLY need the rest. I've barely gotten any sleep in the last two nights, and I've had no time to settle down or do any sort of chores around the house. Tomorrow morning I KNOW I have off, and I'm planning on going for a haircut. I might drop the movies off at Blockbuster before I go for the haircut, talk to Sheri for a bit. Yeah, I'm risking getting my rental priviledges revoked this week, but I don't care. I bought myself some new DVDs this week anyway, (A Christmas Story, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and The Wizard of Oz) and I still have my rentals from Family Video to watch ("The Simpsons" season four and "South Park" season two).
Sometimes I wonder if it was a good idea to work at the mall again this time of year. I feel like I'm burning my candle on both ends. At the same time, I'm getting pissed off with other people who can't be a little more responsible. I like to help out when I can, but the thing is, I'm tired of people thinking I can be taken advantage of like this, or be fooled.
And I really hate to do this, but I'm probably going to have to call Christina up and see if she can perform for me this weekend. I'll perform two weekends in a row to make up for it. It's just, I'm going to be working till midnight at Blockbuster this Saturday night and opening up at Spencer's at 8 am the next morning, and I REALLY need the rest. Rocky Horror is just going to rob me of more precious sleep time.
Ooh, news on that, which I'm disguising through an LJ cut, if anyone is interested. Fester told me when he dropped by Spencer's today. ( Read more... )
AAAAND....word on my disability claim came today. DENIED!! Oh well. At least I tried.
