Fired for expressing myself and speaking my mind

Oh yes! I got FIRED today because of my blog, interesting…

You know my actual place of employment, nor whom I work for was ever disclosed, nor did I intend it to be and it won’t. However it’s been of a certain matter of speculation today apparently. It’s actually less then 24 hours old…

I knew something was up when the big boss walked in. That’s ok I don’t hate my former boss, I actually thought they were cool and as a matter of fact I still do. I do feel really bad for those who are now going to get stuck doing my job and I feel really sorry for certain people who will in any event remain nameless because they will be the one taking the biggest hit, not me. I’ll go on with my life and that will be that.

It’s no secret that i’ve hated my job for the longest time, I got tired and fed up with being taken advantage of LONG before this. What do you expect, huge corporations are without souls and totally un-caring they wouldn’t be profitable otherwise. I just recently got offered a better job with better wages and had and still have every intention of taking it. Even the induvidual who fired my ass admitted that I had every right to express myself, however apparently that isn’t the case because if you express yourself and say what you think but don’t actually act upon it in person but choose to complain about it in YOUR OWN TIME, that’s right MY time. I don’t write on my blog at work, you get promptly fired.

What ever happened to freedom of speech? Apparently in some cases that quite simply doesn’t exsist. Am I sorry for partaking in this blog and saying how I really feel IN MY OWN TIME? No. I do have remorse for my co-workers cos they do get railroaded enough as well. Do i think it was worth it, yes actually I do because you know what I would rather get fired for expressing myself and standing up for what I believe in as opposed to something immoral.

Most people will likely say that I shouldn’t have posted my picture in conjunction with this blog ( otherwise they wouldn’t have had a clue) but I have nothing to hide so why use annonminty when I felt there was no need to. I didn’t and still don’t slander anyone and nothing I posted wasn’t true either, there’s truth in everything that I write but apparently that makes me un-ethical and without principle. Whatever, I kiss no one’s ass nor will I aplogise for who or what I am. Not today, not tommrow, not ever. As I am generally fond of saying: Everything happens for a reason and when one door closes another one opens…

Stay posted cos this is no where near come to it’s conclusion yet…

The time isn’t right on this either, if it matters it’s currently 4:37pm not 1:30 in the afternoon.

The powers of observation, they amaze me…

Or well more like lack thereof…
Never a dull moment at my job I tell you.

Snotty bitch prof shows up with her second cup coffee ( please refer to 1st post for more details on snotty bitch prof,), that’s nice. Wish she would have brought me one too while she was at, whore ( *edit* I didn’t say that to her!)…

So I have a selection of ridculously over-priced pre-prepared food in one of my fridges. Yesterday someone bought a salad and decided that there was too much oregano in it and had someone else return it. Of course asking for a replacement...

NEWS FLASH:
You can’t return something just because you don’t fucking like it!!! No I will NOT give you a refund or a replacement. I DON’T make them, in fact they’re made elsewhere. Yes i’ll accept your feedback but don’t expect ME to do anything about it, cos I don’t care.

When my security gate is locked I AM CLOSED… Don’t stand there and bitch to my supervisor cos he ain’t going to serve your doofus ass either! While you were standing at my newly constructed counter with your girlfriend I told you in a nice way to decide if you were going to get anything please do so now because I am closing in five minutes. You screw around for 10 minutes, i’m closed after you have made up your mind. Go to SP or AD they’re open longer to serve you, I on the other hand close at THREE PM I don’t care how late your classes are, that is once again not my problem…

Another thing, I serve NOTHING that is called “that one” WTF is “that one”? If you don’t know what it’s called then you shouldn’t be eating it!

No my black olive baguette DOES NOT contain blueberry’s! Seriously you are a university student, please use your common sense and don’t make such moronic observations that are well simply put just plain nasty!

Tips:
There is a reason why I can no longer accept tips, therefore I no longer have a tip box at my location.
a theiving prick that ruined it for us all. Not only was he robbing the company he was also stealing tips from his co-worker. Because of that, none of us are alloweed to accept tips anymore. I’m supposed to have a box for kids help phone but I feel that’s mis-leading and I refuse to have one at my location. So thanks you fucking douchetard for ruining it for ALL of us! I console myself with the fact that his visa expired and his ass got kicked out of Canada. What comes around goes around… Betcha he’s not smiling anymore…

To conclude:
I have no phone at my location, so mostly I rely on my cell phone. So today i’m sitting behind the counter texting someone and some random girl walks up to my counter. So I ask her what I can get for her since 95% of my stuff is now served by yours truly… She says to me ” I need your cell phone, can I use it to make a call?” My first thought was gee, do I know you?, ummm no, chances of you using MY phone: 0
I said well no i’m on pay-as-you-go which I am, although I do have a plan which includes a 100 daytime minutes. However since my extension STILL isn’t hooked up yet I am without a land line of sorts. being billed by the minute doesn’t entail a lot of talk time (I do occasionally need to call the big caf, or certain managers call me to waste my minutes asking why the vending inventory isn’t done…
FIND A DAMN PAYPHONE YOU CHEAP BITCH! Cos we all ask random strangers to use our cell phones… ( *edit* no I didn’t say that to her either)
Besdies my text messages have priorty cos of who they’re getting sent to and he agress lol

I hate my stupid customer has moved… To here YAY!

“Another day, another 50 cents…”

Sometimes I wonder why I even bother getting out of bed to go to my job in the morning… Most days it’s not THAT bad and I can generally deal. However some people just never cease to blow me away.

I pretty much self operate a cafe at a university, self operate meaning that I’m the only one that works there and during their breaks, I get ass fucked. Simple as that but hey me being “super Steph” (yes apparently I am a super hero look for the comic and matching action figures soon) I can deal…

I love how people ASSUME that because I have an uber shitty job, that apparently equals me being uneducated. No as a matter of fact I’m not but for several reasons I haven’t been able to pursue my career but eventually I can and will make that happen.

I have a professor that comes to see me for her daily caffeine fix. She’s nice enough I suppose but in some ways a rather egotistical bitch. She commented on my closing time (3pm) however the day before I closed at 2:30 much to everyone disdain and dismay. That was a minor error on a few people’s parts…

Anyway the conversation went as follows:
Snotty bitch prof. :Well you know there is afternoon classes that start at 1 and end at 4pm you know.
Me: Yeah and?
Snotty bitch prof. : well I don’t let my students go for break until 2:45pm and they would appreciate if you were still open because the would like to get coffee.
Me: *shrugs* I don’t make the schedule around here, let me refer you to my manager so you can complain to someone who might be able to do something.
Snotty bitch prof. : Well maybe you should suggest to your boss to stay open until 3:30pm then
Me: Can I make a suggestion, she says sure to which I say sure if your willing to pay my overtime I will be happy to bend over backwards to please you.
Snotty bitch prof. : * mouth agape* well it’s you who’s losing money and business you know.
Me:(*edit I thought this but didn’t actually say this, should have clarified that at the time*) Yeah well for one thing I don’t get paid enough to care, for 2. I still get paid wether you come here or not…
I just informed here that I had no real partaking in such things and had no choice over what time I closed either.
to which I pasted on my fake sincere go fuck yourself smile and told her to have a nice morning.
Which leads me to customer number two that just blew me away…
ok picture this: Customer walks up trying to look urban chic and doing a really bad job of it ( I really need to take pictures of my customers sometimes so you can get the full effect) Wearing this ugly ass leather trench coat and these hot pink (oh yes hot pink) John Lennon style sunglasses that were the size of toonies on a head that was the size of a watermellon.
She walks up to my counter with a ton of pomp and circumstance and thinking that her fat ass is far more superior to anyone else who happened to be around.She buys a medium coffee, pays for it and just stands there.
Anyone using their powers of observation would realise that coffee is SELF SERVE where I work. She was appalled proclaiming and I quote ” Oh my GOD I have to serve myself?” “Umm yeah what do you think this is the Ritz? ( I didn’t say that but I was thinking it)” I pointed out her purchased cup sized and shipped her fat ass over to where the coffee is.
Then this get’s even funnier: “do you have any real milk ( I had run out of milk hours prior to that)?” To which I couldn’t resist replying ” umm I don’t carry fake milk…” “well all you have is cream left, I don’t want cream” I just looked at her and said “well there’s a second cup on the corner if you prefer”, she hefted her fat ass outta my area and left.
I sell Starbucks coffee but I ain’t no fucking starbucks!
Oh and this just takes the cake back onto the milk thing…
Starbucks coffee is really strong so most people “water it down with milk/cream milk obviously being the more popular choice and God forbid I don’t have a damn cow in the back when it runs out…
All of my supplies are halfway across campus if I run out of something too damn bad. Customer from hell went a little something like this:”Do you have any milk left?” “Nope sorry ran out a while ago” “What do you mean you have no milk left, how can you not have milk?” “Well you guys used it all and I ran out, it happens, I was busy today (and annoyed and starting to get really pissed off…)” “OMFG I need milk, I can’t drink my coffee without milk can’t you get some like right now? I need it for my coffee ( all the while running all over the place about to have a stroke apparently)” “Oh i’m sorry I don’t keep a cow in the back for these occasions ( *edit again I didn’t say that but I was thinking it!*) I close in 5 minutes”
Finally one of her friends hauled off, good thing cos I was tempted to kick her spoiled ass!
I HATE first year students You know i’m supposed to be there to serve them, not be their damn servant…
Tune in next time for another one of my upmost bitch fests, cos they’re only going to get better…
