JOBS.

Okay, so it's currently 2:42 AM while I'm writing this; I'm bored and listening to some music so...why not tell a short story about something that happened a few days ago at my job?


Lets start! So basically, to kind of summarize my boss, she's nice! She really is! But she (I feel bad ab saying this :( ) is nit picky about certain things. So I will admit, sometimes I don't do things the EXACT same way that she wants us to, primarily because usually it'll make my life easier and give me the same outcome, but apparently my ways suck or something! I also get v nervous around my boss. For example - she told me "say thank you to the customer when you give them their order" (I work in a snack connoisseur stand type thing) and she's completely right! And I do, in fact, do this! But of course since I'm nervous I didn't while she was watching me...fun cool silly quirky. Anyways, some things that she tells me to do are like in a passive-aggressive tone (SHE HERSELF ISNT PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE!!!! I probably just take things incorrectly or something lol); (cite the "thank you" thing above - I told her I usually do that and she said "ok well you didn't do that the last 2 times. In this. Tone.) my coworker was serving a customer and she tells me like 3 times to put up flyers, simultaneously telling the customer that I have to put it up. Don't remember the exact wording, but it was kinda like "yeah and the flyers [promotional smoothie flyers] need to be put up." I went to the computer by accident, didn't notice the papers, she tells me they're already printed, and now we get to the best part of the story! She told me to put the flyers wherever I wanted, and so, I did. I put them near the gate of a pool since we sell snacks near a pool, but the lifeguard sees me, and I guess he gets really annoyed because I didn't hear him so I didn't respond - as a result, he treats me a little rudely? Like his tone and demeanor Changed When Talking To Me D: the papers aren't laminated (which I didn't know what that meant at the time, don't judge), so I hang them up on two doors that we have. I go back, tell me boss what happened, and she said "I'll let you slide this time." IM SORRY BUT. PLEASE DONT SAY THAT IT DOESNT MAKE ME FEEL BETTER I LITERALLY ALMOST STARTED CRYING. AND SHE NOTICED AND MENTIONED IT LATER ON. AGHHH but whatever.

I have nothing against the people mentioned in the story but it's just Stuff That I Do and the Repercussions That I Experience - book coming soon! :P In all seriousness, nothing against these people. Just a silly story that's even sillier in hindsight tbh! Thanks for reading, might take this down soon so :) ttyl!!

I have come out of the shadows to post this! Overall the job was pretty alright. I got to go on a bunch of trips. I'd say being able to dissect a cow's eye was pretty worth it (don't worry, i just think anatomy is really interesting lol)

Like i said, thank you for reading! If you want me to elaborate more then comment & i def will! <3 ttyl
