I hate my job!

[CrystalGeezer]

When it rains it pours. Here's some more chubby rain for you.

So I've been reading about canaries because I'm interested in getting my lil' Jerry a girlfriend. See, they do this thing where when the girl sits on the nest the boy goes out and gets food, eats it, and regurgitates it into her mouth so she can focus on hatching babies instead of cooking and cleaning. That's the boys job. So Jerry doesn't have a girl, but he has a black, reflective cage. He sees his own reflection on the perch where he sleeps. He;s been feeding the reflection, there's bird slobber all over the cage. He's miserable singing to himself and his black reflection. Feeding her but it;s him, blah, whatever. So I read that you can get them companion in a finch. FInches are in the same family but different. They wouldn't mate but they'd eat the same food. I figure this would be the equivalent of setting Jerry up with a zombie. Sure finches are cheaper and convenient, but it's a finch, it's not like him. So I'm going to hold out for finding him a canary lady. VERY Magic Flute, but it's true. They're more expensive and I'll have to deal with all the babies or just make tiny omelettes, but Jerry will be finally happy. THis book I'm reading is very informative. Apparently canaries like to eat dandelions.

So the other day I was talking to my computer about Sudden-Onset Shyness which I get all the time and call it SOS. Tonight at In-n-Out for my ironic dinner of a meatless hamburger at a hamburger stand, my total was $5.05. So the girl rings it up, says "That'll be $5.05." then walks away and starts helping the drive-thru and another guy finished the transaction. Her name was Britney. THis is seeing signs, people. Totally got rickrolled at dinner tonight.

 

[CrystalGeezer]

That's it. I'm going back on sign strike starting now.

I used to watch Simple Life with Paris and Nicole and my favorite episode was when they worked at a Sonic, but if Britney worked at In -n- Out that would be way better.

You think your job sucks ???

You think your job sucks ???

Right now that seems like quite a good job to me! At least you wouldn't have to meet people! I just got home, it's saturday night and I don't want to meet people. I'll probably stay inside tomorrow also. Will possibly go out on monday but will try to avoid people.
Another thing I hate about my job is people, people generally are idiots. Can't do anything by themselves, expects me to do everything for them. And when I help them they complain about bad service, I mean what the hell! No matter where you go (restaurants, shops or whatever) the staff isn't standning around licking your ass! People have such a strange image of what service is. And all the stupid questions!

-"Do you want chips?" when they will pay with their cards and the card has a CHIP!

-"I paid for blablabla earlier, can you get me a receipt for that?". I'm sorry? You want me to write a receipt for the blablabla you claim to have bought 10 hours ago, which you can't prove you have bought since you have eaten it and which you after walking around here 10 hours and suddenly came up to the idea that you want a receipt for and which you didn't even buy from me?

-"I'm going out here, bye!"... How good you found the exit! Since we didn't think about the fact that people would want to leave sooner or later we don't have an exit so the way to get out from here is by crawling under the entrance!

-"I want to blablablabla". - Yes, put you left arm here! *puts his/hers right arm there. - Left arm! - Huh? - Left arm! - Huh? - LEFT arm

-"I bought a balloon for my daughter here 4 hours ago and she lost it so I want a new!

-"It's not working!" - "You have to turn the magnetic stripe down into the reader" - "It's not working, the service is lousy at this place" - "You have to turn the magnetic stripe down" - "Nothing works at this place, and the service is lousy" - *takes the card and turns the magnetic stripe down* - "Well, why didn't you just tell me, you don't have to be so rude"

Dear god, please save me!

Where do you work, Jackie?

 

[Jackie London]

Where do you work, Jackie?

In hell! I don't want to say where I work since they are known to fire staff who say anything bad about the place.

Is it a casino? Or when you say chips and cards are you talking about something else entirely British lost in these American ears?

It's not a casino but it's something in that style you could say...

 

[CrystalGeezer]

Does anyone else other than me find it interesting that my dashboard

looks like a pissed off Pringles logo?

Dash is pissed by something. What do Arthur and Agatha think?

[TheReader]

Never did understand this 'job' palava.

Morrissey? Is that you?!

Your avatar scares the bejesus out of me by the way *shudder*. But I don't really know why...

 

[shawnxvx]

Brothel

 

[Jackie London]

Brothel

Haha, well not really. But I certainly feel like a whore when I laugh at their stupid jokes to be nice....I mean, what's the diffrence really? You satisfy customers for money. Today was actually quite fun; animals are not allowed at the place I work except guide dogs. And today a blind man came and ofcourse brought his dog and then suddenly a crazy woman comes up to my colleague Richard and starts screaming at him because apparently she is allergic to dogs and therefore insists that we tell the blind man to leave with his dog. Which we would never do. So Richard just looks at her and says "you know what I'm allergic to? Annoying people!" and pretends to sneeze. I love Richard. I want him to be the father of my children. Too bad he is gay!

 

[DAVIE]

I'll slap them in the face with my dick then! And that evil woman who is evil to blind people!

Jackie,
the general population are dicks with no brains who love to make a show in public at the expense of whoever is providing a service for them, I work with the public too. It's amazing how being in the company of strangers for just a few minutes can wind you up to the point of wanting to commit murder. I would say carry on working hard but keep your eye on the door. you need not stay there forever, it's a means to an end, we've all been in that position (I could tell you some stories, seriously!). Think about some aspect of work that would make you enjoy going to work more and look for or make opportunities towards a goal in small steps - unless you just hate people altogether and you might be better of working as an undertaker where you can watch your customers being buried or cremated, lol. And never listen to pessimists who tell you you can't achieve it - they are just weak people with no aspiration, almost as bad as your customers!
Good luck but keep us up to date with your day to day experiences, they are very funny to read

Thanks for your support The situation actually worked out rather ok, I finish there in 3 weeks
The situation at work right now is just a complete mess, some of the staff are going mad. There is one girl at work who is constantly talking talking talking. She's driving us mad. Most people who work there are outgoing, funny and likes to talk but this one is just TOOOO MUCH! She's talking us to death, and the only thing that comes out of her mouth is shit to be honest. Everyone hate her but she thinks everyone love her, the whole situation is absurd. Then there is a guy who has been working there for 7 weeks and still don't know his job, everything he does get wrong. And now I heard by a friend that he has been telling a girl at work that she is fat at two occasions, which can only mean he is blind since she is really thin. Completely absurd, everyone hate him. And the guests, well the other day I had to run after a really old lady (really old but she sure could run fast) because she hadn't paid. The same day a hysterical women tried to give a colleague of mine a bottle which her son had well, used as a toilet so to speak people are seriously stupid.
