Suspension.
10-27-11 11:02 AM
I've figured out a way to write since I'm not doing at home..between classes!! I should be reading right now, but I'm already half way through the chapter so I'm not too worried about it. School has been going well. I'm having a hard time not procrastinating, but at this point I'm just working at my own pace and getting it done with good grades so hopefully my procrastination won't hinder me too much.
Work, on the other hand, has not been going super well. Last Friday I missed a mandatory customer service meeting and shit has hit the fan since then. I spoke with my customer service manager T and she said they had to suspend me basically because they had done that to a coworker after the last meeting. I wasn't happy. in the year that I've been there, I've never called out, never had a customer complaint, never had an issue with management and never had a problem with another coworker about work that hasn't been handled professionally. I felt like after my first offense, I shouldn't be suspended for a week. I closed the night before and federal law states I must have 8 hours between clocking out and clocking in the next day. Publix policy states that it must be 10. Hello people?! I spoke with the store manager K and she stated that she understood where I was coming from and that she would think about revoking the suspension however they would have to be consistent and that was the main issue. After a few days and her talking to T, they sat me down and told me that the suspension would have to stay. I told them if that's the case, I'd prefer not to be customer service anymore and I will be coming back from my week suspension as a cashier. Same pay, same hours, less bullshit. My managers weren't happy, but I explained to them that I was tired of the clique that is customer service. I know people have problems with me up there. I'm out of the loop and it's making our team weaker than it should be. I don't want to be part of it until it's over. I'm good at what I do. Customers come in and know my name. Ask how school is going. How my mom is doing. I've made friends from customers. They know that and they know they just lost someone valuable.
In other news..I'm getting my wisdom teeth taken out the 4th of November. I'm a little nervous about that. I've never been sedated. Luckily Dave had to have some work done earlier in the year so our deductible is covered and I'll only have to pay $200. I'm feeling more and more independent these days. Yes I live with my aunt and uncle, but I'm basically buying all of my food, gas, clothing, etc. It's like living with roommates I guess. It's getting tiring.
I don't think there's much else to say. Jason and I are doing well. It's distance, but we are making it work surprisingly. I've never felt so strongly for someone in the respect that I do and for how long I have. He wants me to come up there and stay with him. I think he loves me. *sigh* We'll see. Only time will tell. Gotta head to class.
