Got out of bed at 10:45 to the beautiful sound of rain . Drinking coffee and eating a cranberry scone.

The cats are all relaxed and lounging around the apartment. I'm listening to Pharrell's 'Happy', on VR, and watching the rain from the living room window. I feel pretty good - no flu, asthma attack, or other ailments.

I feel the need to write a little too.

A perfect day!

Holy Mother of God...things are so chaotic at work that all I can do is laugh, really.

There is still bickering - mainly amongst the other three cashiers: I actually had a talk with Big Momma yesterday, and she mentioned how Mai has been pressuring her and being downright nasty to her since she didn't back her up with their union in regards to the seating issue (The stools were taken away due to ALL THREE of them sitting on their asses when things slow down, instead of going about checking what needs to be done). As much as I want to choke the life out of Big Momma, she had a valid point. And she is never nasty to any of us. C - the other lazy ass - is up in arms over Mai getting a stool (with a doctor's note), never mind that she also didn't back up Mai with fighting to get their seats back...See what the rest of us have to deal with? Stan - Boss #1 - pulled me aside to get MY feedback. All I could say was that he should consider the fact that if the same cashiers will still be working at the school over the years and getting older, they will need to be able to sit at times...and to have a mandatory meeting soon to try to clear up all of the bullshit:

People not being able to actually do the work (Big Momma), coming in late, taking long breaks and lunches (Big Momma and C); not speaking up but talking behind others backs (Mai, but really, ALL of us), etc. Per Stan, we will have a meeting soon...



So - this is the background which culminated in Wednesday's fiasco:

That morning, I'm walking towards the center. One of the school employees comes out of the center and states "You are the only cashier today..." WTF? I go in, to see the cafeteria doors closed, and lots of people milling around. Someone starts clapping, then others join in...I figured out quickly that they are all clapping because they see me come in...holy shit.

I use my key to get in, and see Boss #2 fuming. The cafeteria opens at 8am, and it was 9am. She tells me that Big Momma called in sick (which is the usual, as she has many medical issues). Mai was in, but got ill - she has medical issues too, but most of the others think she is faking (I don't think she is though). She had some sort of fainting spell, and went home - she wouldn't take the advice and go to the ER...this is the second time she has refused to do so. C didn't come in either - she had actually planned on not coming in the previous day, as she had 'bad cramps'...I think that she is actually full of shit a lot of the time. And a drama queen to boot.

Anyway me and Boss #2 finished getting everything set up quickly, and a bit later, the new hire came in, followed by another hard-working hourly employee - Dor - about 2 hours later. We got through the day, and were all tired as hell. (Remember -I'm working 9 hour days now, but I'm at work for 9.5 - 10 hours a day).



When I came into work yesterday, Boss #2 approached me while I was in the office, and stated

that she really appreciated me as an employee and a friend...wow. I told her that I was just doing what I was suppose to be doing, and I actually had a lil' fun the previous day, even though I was tired as hell. She then pulled out a lovely floral gift bag, which had the following: a beautiful light-weight hot pink sweater/wrap, a notebook, and some bath salts...I recall saying thank you, and "Why the hell you giving me this stuff?" We both laughed. She said - "Well, I was planning on giving you this stuff weeks ago, but now, it really seemed appropriate after yesterday...You are a great employee and a great friend"...The gifts were unnecessary, as I was doing what I'm paid to do - work. But it was a very nice gesture! I'm gonna' take her out to lunch or for a drink soon.

With that, she and Dor are going to speak with Stan to see if I can get paid more $$$...lol

Big Momma...

01:02 Mar 23 2014
Times Read: 823


Now you know that I couldn't let the news about work - specifically about Big Momma - slip by - lol.

She's gotten a lot of chances to get her shit together. I believe that she is nearing her third and final 90-day probation period. As I've stated before, she is a nice person overall; she just can't get her act together with her job performance. She can't do the job physically, nor mentally. Instead of allowing her doctor to put her on disability, she refuses, as it will be less money than what she's currently making. (And if you try to stick around at a job you can't do, WTF)? And - she seems to be clueless about her statements and actions:



* Still nods off and SNORES during meetings

* Constantly needs to be reminded to do stuff. Recall over a year ago when she requested that her co-workers remind her to do stuff? And how I replied with how babysitting her wasn't part of our job, as she should be doing what we're doing? Well, lately, as Boss #2 has been out on the floor more to monitor her and remind her of tasks, Big Momma had the nerve to tell her that she didn't like to be 'micromanaged'...

* Comes in late a lot

* Still takes longer breaks and lunches (and she still eats too damn much of all the wrong stuff, I might add)

* Takes forever to get anything done...whenever she ACTUALLY gets anything done

* Breaks and damages stuff (metal coffee strainer, cash drawer, bottles of iced coffee. etc.)

* Does tasks the lazy way. For example, instead of actually WALKING to a rinse sink to rinse out metal coffee strainer, she'll bang the hell out of it over the trashcan, then get a napkin and slowly wipe out coffee grains. Which is how one strainer got broken...she said "So" when the boss pointed it out to her. Instead of bending over - which she can't really do - to pick up a package of bottled coffee, she grabbed the end of the plastic wrapper, not noticing that the package was already opened...and out drops a glass bottle, making a mess everywhere. Did a half-assed job of cleaning up, and got an attitude when Boss #2 had her clean it more thoroughly the following day. Wait...I think she sneaked off from work to keep from doing that job.

* Doesn't follow some of the rules in regards to checking lists for people on different programs (the lists can and do change frequently). She'll just ring them up; it ends up that 2 - 3 students go to her - who are no longer on any lists for free food - because she doesn't do her job of checking. A BIG NO-NO.



Need I say more? A former student was just hired and part of her duties will be cashiering off and on...guess whose place she may take?

And Big Momma - dumb ass - has no clue.

Recall my recent diatribes on those of the insane nation...well, it seemed that we have one at work that was completely undercover.

One of our student workers: a cute, quiet unassuming black kid with tats on his arms. Al is a pretty good worker; he does required and requested tasks for the most part, and he has a great attitude. The only complaint I'd have against him is when he stands behind one of the coffee makers, leaning against the wall, zoned out. I thought that maybe he was just being lazy, suffering from a hangover, or tired from an all-nighter of studying.

I was in the office one day with the head boss Stan, going over paperwork. Al comes in to get some supplies. When he leaves, Stan mumbles "That guy is a basket case." I didn't say a word, because by that time, I already knew from Boss #2 that Al has schizophrenia. Great.

I didn't say anything regarding Stan's comment because I felt bad...just a day or two earlier, I went on a tirade on how 'I don't do well with mentally unstable people...' I know, not very charitable, but I can only go by my experiences. Unfortunately, Al was within earshot. I'm kinda' hoping that he was zoned out during the whole thing...





We have another student worker who is bat shit crazy. She has been with us for about two years. But her antics can be expected and are predictable...like the rainbow eye shadow she wears everyday. Every week, there is some sort of disaster going on in her life: one week, she wakes up to find her boyfriend dead next to her; another week - just last week, actually - her 20 year old son gets shot down by the cops (He's still alive). Some of her stories are so outrageous that hardly anyone believes her anymore. I wonder what we'll hear next week...



And just yesterday, while I was on my way home from an eye exam and shopping at Walmart, a drunk asshole bumps into me as I'm stepping from the bus with my cart. He then goes off on ME, yelling that I ran into HIM. I said "I'm sorry, but you actually ran into me, sir". That wasn't good enough. 'Hey man- watch where the fuck ya' goin'!" I reply with "You need to watch where you're going...and I'm not a damn man, MAN!"

I walked on. Do you know that this dumb ass stumbled behind me, still yappin'?

"You did bump into me, man!"

I just turned around and glared at him. Then, in my most imperious tone I stated "You are incorrect. Due to your drunkenness, you bumped into me, and you didn't have the courtesy to say excuse me. You lack manners, sir, and you should be ashamed of yourself."

He stared at me for a moment, then muttered that I did run into him, then he shambled off. If he wasn't going to back down, I was planning on slamming my plastic bag of cat food cans upside his head. I was ready to go ghetto on his ass, which I really didn't want to do.

About an hour before I left for the day yesterday, a petite Asian chick comes in. She totally dressed in black, with a Goth/Barbie doll look going on: A tiny top hat tied to the side of her head, a laced up bustier, bolero jacket, short lacy skirt, black and white striped thigh high stockings, tall high-heeled lace-up boots...you get the idea. However, her most prominent feature was her huge pushed up boobs.

There were about four guys at the grill. I wished that I had my cell to take a pic of her - and of the grill guys, all gathered at the end of the counter staring at the boobs...I mean, girl. It was priceless.

This past work week has found me inundated with crazy-ass fuckers. I usually try to find the humor in the craziness though. My top three:

One day after the lunch rush, I was alone ringing up customers. I had about 5 - 6 in line, but it was no biggie, as I get them in and out quickly. If things slow down, it's usually due to the customers, who wait at the last minute to start digging around for money, then giving me crumpled up bills that I have to smooth out...really, dumbasses?

Anyway, while I'm ringing up folks, a girl comes storming in, babbling about how she wants her money back...? I politely tell her that I have no idea what she's talking about, but would try to help her after I finished with the customers in line. This whack-a-do bitch screams "I want to talk to who's in charge!" I calmly tell her that I'll get 'someone in charge' in a moment. She storms off in a huff to the lone guy at the grill, and starts yelling at him about her order being wrong (some fries with sour cream and peppers). Her screeching causes the supervisor to come out of the office - thank God - and deal with her. By this time, my line of customers is gone, so I can watch the scene continue to unfold in front of me.

"I want my money back! This is not what I ordered! I need to get something nutritious!" (I found out a bit later that she got exactly what she ordered). She was getting more shrill when she found out that she wasn't going to get her way. She could get something else, but she wasn't getting any money back ($3.25, by the way). Another employee arrived, took $3.25 out of his pocket, gave it to her, and told her not to come back. (Just what I would've done if I had some change in my pocket).

Earlier in the week, This guy comes in and places an order for a chicken burger at the grill. He begins to get irritated when other people who placed orders after him were getting their food before him. I was stocking salads at the time, and noticed him getting bent out of shape. Before I could say something to him, he comes over, twitching and shit. "I am not happy! People are getting their food before me and I was here first!" He sounded like a child...really. A grown man with this weird child-like whiny voice. And the twitching - which creeped me out a bit...kinda' defeated the purpose of the saggin' gangster pants. Fortunately, his plate was given to me, and I handed it to him, apologizing for the delay, stating that we had to make sure that the chicken was fully cooked, or some shit like that...whew.

And how could the week be complete without the guy the grill guys even have a name for? (And I forget the name - lol). This guy is a MAJOR PSYCHO PAIN IN THE ASS. Every time he comes in, there is some sort of drama. Even when he's being 'nice' there is drama. "Why can't I bring in my own cheese for you to make me a grill cheese sandwich? I want to save money. Can I buy two slices of bread? How much for three pickle slices? You guys are awesome. But I don't have money a lot of times. When can I get free cake?"

...ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?

Aaaaarrrrggghhh!

I don't do crazy very well.

First Dave...then the itchy staring guy at the burrito stand...why don't they all just go to hell? These two most recent incidents reminded me of one particular day I wrote about a few years ago:





On my way to the orientation this morning, I waited for a BART train near my apartment. A well-dressed good-looking guy was nearby. He said good morning and I replied likewise. He then came closer to me, smiling. I immediately thought 'No dude - I don't want to buy anything or have a personal relationship with Jesus'.

He proceeded to tell me about his 'amazing lil' friend' that I should see. I thought 'Oh no! Is this guy a perv?' I told him that I didn't want to see his 'lil' friend' and politely asked him to go away. He actually looked sad. Before he walked away, he pointed to the ground, saying "But there he is, right there!" I looked down to see ants marching about. Apparently, out of the dozens of ants there, one was the guy's friend. He totally threw me for a loop, as I thought that he was gonna' unzip his pants to show me 'his friend'. What a fuckin' nutjob.

...On my way home after the orientation, I stopped by a store to pick up some Slim Fast (One of the few things I can ingest that won't give me stomach pains later). A totally drunk guy stumbled towards me. Although he reeked of stale beer and piss, and could barely stand, he said - with perfect clarity: "Ma'am - the local law enforcement authorities have informed me that you are concealing a brick in your purse."

All I could do was shake my head and keep on walking.

Coming back home on the train - around 3PM - I noticed an elderly black woman staring at me in the almost empty car. She was wearing a long blonde wig, clutching a sock monkey.



When friends tell me that I need to get out more, I just say - 'No - I don't".

More Murphy's Laws?

18:31 Mar 09 2014
Times Read: 969


I stole this from my friend Bloodlife:

(#1, #2, #8, and #17 happen to me frequently)



Laws They Don't Teach in Physics



1 . Law of Mechanical Repair - After your hands become coated with grease, your nose will begin to itch and you'll have to pee.

(This happens to me if I'm preparing messy food)



2. Law of Gravity - Any tool, nut, bolt, screw, when dropped, will roll to the least accessible place in the universe.



3. Law of Probability - The probability of being watched is directly proportional to the stupidity of your act.



4. Law of Random Numbers - If you dial a wrong number, you never get a busy signal; someone always answers.



5. Variation Law - If you change lines (or traffic lanes), the one you were in will always move faster than the one you are in now.



6. Law of the Bath - When the body is fully immersed in water, the telephone will ring.



7. Law of Close Encounters - The probability of meeting someone you know INCREASES dramatically when you are with someone you don't want to be seen with.



8. Law of the Result - When you try to prove to someone that a machine won't work, IT WILL!!!



9. Law of Biomechanics - The severity of the itch is inversely proportional to the reach.



10 . Law of the Theater & Hockey Arena - At any event, the people whose seats are furthest from the aisle, always arrive last. They are the ones who will leave their seats several times to go for food, beer, or the toilet and who leave early before the end of the performance or the game is over. The folks in the aisle seats come early, never move once, have long gangly legs or big bellies and stay to the bitter end of the performance. The aisle people also are very surly folk.



11. The Coffee Law - As soon as you sit down to a cup of hot coffee, your boss will ask you to do something which will last until the coffee is cold.



12. Murphy's Law of Lockers - If there are only 2 people in a locker room, they will have adjacent lockers.



13. Law of Physical Surfaces - The chances of an open-faced jelly sandwich landing face down on a floor are directly correlated to the newness and cost of the carpet or rug.



14. Law of Logical Argument - Anything is possible IF you don't know what you are talking about.



15. Law of Physical Appearance - If the clothes fit, they're ugly.



16. Law of Public Speaking -- A CLOSED MOUTH GATHERS NO FEET!



17. Law of Commercial Marketing Strategy - As soon as you find a product that you really like, they will stop making it OR the store will stop selling it!



18. Doctors' Law - If you don't feel well, make an appointment to go to the doctor, by the time you get there, you'll feel better. But don't make an appointment and you'll stay sick.

You know how you can run into someone that you dread running into? It happened to me yesterday, while I was out running errands.

I noticed a bum-looking guy up the street from me when I was on my way to Walgreens. I didn't think much on him until he approached me, shouting "Monique...is that you?" I was like...NO, but I said "Maybe..."

He walked up to me shouting "It's me, Dave! From high school! I thought 'You are still loud and kinda' obnoxious...and you look like shit...' Of course, I didn't say that. Especially since he began ranting on how great HE looked for his age, and how his life was great...and how he was just thinking about me, my sisters - my family in general.

"I'm 51...don't I look good? You look great...you haven't changed much since high school..." Blah blah blah. He came in for a hug, and I was ready to barf, as he had a kind of weird B.O going on, with his plaque-covered teeth...barf.

Now I have to say - in high school, Dave was always annoying, but one could forgive that fact when he was 16 - 17 years old. His behavior was the same as in high school, and as a 51-year old man, it couldn't be forgiven or overlooked.

He followed me into Walgreens, still yapping away. Whenever I put something in my cart, he kept saying "I got money - I can buy that for you..."

I remember being sorta' mean to him in the past, and I tried to be nice, but that didn't last long.

"Dude - I can buy my own shit. You know, you still keep talking a hundred miles a minute. Shut up for a bit." That only made him more 'cheery'..."You are still the same! Always putting me in my place! You are so cool! Give me a hug for old times' sake!"

"I am not hugging you again. Will you let me finish my shopping?"

"Yeah - sure..."

And...he followed me around, yapping at my heels. I wouldn't kick a lil' yappy dog, but I would have been happy to kick him.

"I'm a chaplain for the county" he continued on. "I make good money. Let's go out to lunch!" I wanted to tell him to invest in soap and toothpaste, but I kept my mouth shut.

"You look good!" Dave then proceeded to look me up and down. I wanted to knee him in the crotch.

"So - we gotta' keep in touch..." Before he asked for my number, I asked for his while being rung up at the cashier's. "Call me! Call me when you get home, okay?" Really, dude?

"I'm not calling you when I get home. I got shit to do."

The cashier gave me a look like...what the hell is wrong with this guy?

"Wanna go out tonight?" I can cook. I can cook you dinner..." Jesus...are you fucking kidding me? Dave's manic annoying behavior was taking its toll on me.

"No...I do not want to go out with you. Now, have a nice day. I'll keep in touch..."

"I'll walk you home. Where do you live?"

"I don't want you to walk me home. I don't want you to know where I live. I said that I'd call you sometime already, okay?"

"Um-okay. Call me for sure, okay?"

"Yeah -I'll call you..."



Of course when I got home, I threw way his number.

This reminded me of a few encounters Henry Miller writes about in The Rosy Crucifixion trilogy. Henry was a master at giving people the brush off, thou he was also a master at bum rushing those he want ed to put the touch on.

SOOOO much to do...I've got to help my sisters regarding my mom. Tomorrow, there will be some serious calls to be made, which may take longer than the 15 minute breaks at work, so I'll let my bosses know...sigh.



I've been chomping at the bit to get back to writing my story here, but my mind is clogged with so much to do in real life that it probably ain't gonna' happen anytime soon... which is unfortunate, as my mind could use a break from reality. (I'd like to get back to my vampires, lycans, fallen angels, and zombies)!

This show is rather gory - especially for a major network (as opposed to cable channels you have to pay for). But it is intelligently written. And the plot twists are mind-blowing:







(If Will is really a serial killer, he's kinda' a pretty one...lol:

I just watched the latest episode of 'Hannibal' last night...holy shit!

A guy was going around kidnapping black guys (With a few other people of color, plus a few whites). At the end of the episode, one victim - who is still alive, has his legs glued - or sewn - together, with one of his hands attached to his face...when the camera pans back, there are several other bodies around the one live guy...creating the pattern of a huge brown eye...WTF???

Work...

So there is a lot of repressed anger amongst the other three cashiers. About two weeks ago, they were each called into the office individually, and came out with teary eyes...Hell, I'm irritated with all three of them - especially with Big Momma, of course. Mai won't speak up for herself, but comes to me to bitch and moan...Cee still takes long-ass breaks, and Big Momma...what else can I say that hasn't been said already? All I'll say is that this time, she REALLY may lose her job, seeing as she REALLY can't do most of the tasks...good grief.

There was a meeting last Friday (not this past Friday), in which Mai called in sick and wasn't even present. Cee was there, surprisingly, as she has Fridays off like me - unfortunately, whenever we have meetings and she's there, she talks too damn much, and hardly lets anyone else get a word in; Big Momma snored off and on through most of it (I noticed our supervisor kicking the boss under the table to alert him of the fact, although he couldn't have missed it, as she was SNORING)! Never mind that the meeting was mainly about the three other cashiers, and their bullshit. Not to brag, but I know I do my work, and there aren't any complaints about me from students or staff. As a matter of fact, when I was out for a whole week with the flu a few weeks ago, customers were panicked, thinking that I was gone...lol.



I believe in trying to have fun at work and remain upbeat...even when I want to smack some people - or at the very least, cuss their asses out. In any case, everything that happens is fodder for my writing anyway...lol.



Funny shit:



* While ringing him up, a student was pissed when his game was interrupted by another student. He was ready to pick up on some girl, but it didn't happen. So - I had to hear all about it from him...in what I assumed was a Russian accent. I noticed that he had a cool bag, and commented on it. He handed it to me, and I saw Arabic writing all over the other side. I asked him if he could read it...he went off on me, but in a kinda' cute funny way..."Oh man...I can read this! Of course! You think I'm a white boy? I'm not white! I am from Syria..." Well excuse me...lol. "I get that a lot!" I told him that I thought that he was a Russian...and I'm usually pretty good guessing a person's ethnicity. He couldn't stop laughing. It ended up that the bag carried some fancy Arabic desserts, and the dude insists on bringing me some now. Ooookay.

* I noticed an older culinary student in his regular street clothes...he had on a jacket that was covered in the stars and stripes. We usually joke around with each other a lot, so I felt no reason not to tease him..."Dude...you look like a big ol' flag, man..." people around took a look at him and busted out laughing. He just gave me a look and said that he was gonna' get me back...hee hee. I should mentioned that he was in the navy and fought in the Desert Storm War. Maybe I should've kept my mouth shut, as he can toss some pretty funny barbs himself.
