Aaaaaaaah the joys of venting your spleen
Soooooo, to follow on from my last whining session.....
NOW........My manager has been signed off sick due to stress ! ..... Guess who had to go into work at 7.30 this morning to let the cleaner in and open up......ME .
But hey ! "never mind" I was told on Saturday......The manager from Berwick will transfer over for a few weeks to cover ...... "he'll be there on Tuesday"........"fair enough" I thought to myself
Sooooo.....Area manger gets back from holiday today and phones me....
-"Hi Lou how u coping? everything going ok?"
-"Aye, no problems so far"
-" I understand Nikki's signed off"
- "Yeps she is"
- " Any idea what cover has been arranged?"
- " Yes, the manager from Berwick is coming over, I'm just waiting for him to phone so I can give him the keys and the combination to the burglar alarm and safe"
- <long pause> "Ermmmmmmm no that won't be happening"
-<longer pause> "huh?????"
-"He's on holiday and his assistant manager is sick"
-< long long long LONG pause> "but but but but but but but but....."
- " I'll find someone to cover your day off on Thursday, but I can't gaurantee that you won't have to run the shop yourself"
- *squeaky voice* "okaaaaaaaaaay"
- "bye then Lou"
- "bye Katie"
*sits in corner and cries*
Aaaaaaaaaaargh I have NO bloody idea what the hell I'm doing lol.....
I have a delivery to take on Wed morning.....never done that b4
I have a girl starting on Friday......I'm gonna have to train her
AND ! all the Xmas stock is supposed to be going on the shelves this week !
HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
oh and this also means that I have to get out my bed at a ridiculous time ( ie, before 10am) 3 days in a row !!!!!!!!!!
and in case I haven't mentioned it, I'm up for promotion for assistant manager......if she DARES give that damn job to anyone else after I've run the shop single handedly for her.........I'll be a tad bitty miffed ( ok I'll inflict pain on her )
