GM HATE!

Hi. So I've been working at Borders and getting more and more used to things, except I really hate/fear the GM. She's a bitch. Maybe she's going through menopause or something, but she sure is really bitchy. So I needed to request off....a responsible thing to do right....and shes like you need to schedule it 2 weeks in advance. No one fucking told me that. So I though I wouldn't be able to get off to work at the Hawaii Primary Election. Fine whatever, so I was really too scared to ask off for my interview at the same time. And then she like makes it seem like I won't get that day off....what does she do....schedule me off. WTF. Make up your mind. So I fill out the form we need to fill out to get off...this is like 5 weeks ahead of time....and then she calls me into the office, "you know....you just started and you are asking off all the time, is this going to be happening every month? we rarely give time off..." well fuck you then. how about being more flexible. I fucking work every damn odd hour you fucking give me (the hours aren't that odd, but still...). So I was like this is a really rare circumstance...I said it was a family weekend thing verses saying that I was going to another interview...but if she doesn't fucking give me off I'm going to quite that job.

This is the first time that someones words pierce my heart. Everything that she says to me is usually very negative (her tone of voice is always very harsh/negative/mean sounding). This has been really bothering me a lot ever since I started working there. I've never been so affected by someones words. They really stick with me and I feel really down all the time. She hasn't said anything about the things I do good or anything. I'm pretty sure I'm doing some stuff that is good....
I wonder if I'm being over-sensitive about this.

Anyway, hope you all are doing well.

conforming

Here's a post for yall. Tips SUCKED today, circa $8.00. and our stupid system kept going down, it was beyond obnoxiuos. and our GM came in yesterday so our manager decided to be totally OCD about all the stupid rules no one follows. Not coolio. I hafta tutor in algebra tonight, not looking forward to it but I do like money.
Life after graduation blows (sorry Kelly, I know you don't like it when people are unhappy). Talking with Cait keeps me from killing myself. This girl got this job I should've gotten and sucks at it. But she is nice.
I'm super lonely and my cat's my best friend.
I canvassed for Shane Gibson (state rep, 72nd district) yesterday in my own neighborhood. That was kind of funny. And Saturday I was canvassing for OFA and got stuck talking to this racist crazy for 43 minutes. It was incredibly entertaining. He had ideas of how to pay for the new bridge (which we've talked about for literally 30 years), and INSISTED i write them down to remember to tell Baron Hill. Teehee. He also pointed out where all the Mexicans live in his neighborhood, but he "doesn't want to feel prejudiced". I mean... you might want to feel it, but you are it Mr. racistpants. I put notes in votebuilder saying that he was crazy. But after all that, he's still gonna vote for Baron and Ellsworth! I'm pretty much a winning canvasser, lol.
k there's your life update. Hope it made yall happy
