Convenience store horror & hillarioty (another random rant)

This happened on Saturday but the events of the day were just too outrageous not to post. I scored the weekend off so I went to visit a friend in the west island. Stopped off at Arahova\’s for some food before I ran over to her place so we could have lunch together.

Since she\’s moving out, I figured I\’ll stop off at the dep near her house and pick up something to drink, that turned out to be a HUGE mistake. Generally it\’s not that busy when I go in there but this was the first time I had ventured in there on a Sat…

The door flew open and a ton of kids came flying out and some of them felt compelled to stand in the door and scream to their little friends and in turn blocking my path. Keep in mind that I have take out in my hands since there were no plastic bags to be had at the restaurant. I was tempted to drop it on their heads but I wasn\’t about to waste it on them. The line up was a mile long and I thought well with the monsoon of kids, that was somewhat to be expected.
They all finally cleared out until this older woman walked up to the cash and held the line up for an additional 15 minutes on top of the time I wasted waiting for the little irritating children to leave. Turns out she didn\’t have enough money in her wallet. She even went as far to empty out her change purse on the counter all the while holding onto her dog so she was doing this one handed so that of course takes even longer. After figuring out that she didn\’t have enough money, she wanted to pay debit so the girl scans her card and the lady just looks at the debit machine and has no clue what her pin number is! So then on comes the search for credit cards and the like, she finally paid and dropped her cards, her check book and her dog almost took off in the process… I mean seriously, who beings their dog into a store? Let alone buys more stuff then they have money for. Seriously, that makes me even more glad that I don\’t work with the public anymore!

So Carly and I go out for dinner( hours later)… On the way back we made the mistake of going back into the same store to grab a few things. Once again another hold up… This one was different though, the poor woman was new and poorly trained. Fair enough, I can be sympathetic to that. There was a few people in line in front of us including a fake tanned frat boy along with a gaggle of his friends buying a case of beer for his limo ride. So poor woman at the cash is trying to fix a void, and has someone behind the counter trying to help her so she\’s not paying attention to the people in line and frat boy takes off with said case of beer. A customer points this out to the cashier and she takes off and starts screaming at frat boy to give her the case of beer back. Meanwhile this arrogant, wanna be a thug sucks his teeth and calls the other guy a snitch. Customer looks at him and says excuse me? You don\’t steal and has this little thug bastard cowering into the chip rack. He should have hit the little bastard for being so ignorant but he didn\’t and the cashier raced back into the store, case of beer in tow. I twas pretty entertaining overall. Finally someone who knew what they were doing showed up and we finally got served. I\’ll miss her when she moves, but not that damn dep!

Although in happier news, I started a new job yet again but I have a better feeling about this one. My most favorite thing from my last job was convincing someone who is not familiar with French acronyms that SVP (which is please in case you didn\’t know) didn\’t stand for Si Vous plait ( or however that\’s spelled), but SUPER VAGINA POWER ha ha

My latest rant and an e-mail to share

You know I really loathe and despise when people come into my restaurant and claim that they have allergies to something random like onions. Please! You honestly think that were dumb enough to buy into that bullshit, a simple no onions please would suffice. Yes of course there are people in the world whom I am sure allergic to onions and such but NOT that many people!

When your throwing your garbage out, get a fucking clue! If it\’s over flowing, move your lazy ass onto the second one located a mere half foot away from the other one. When i\’m changing the garbage don\’t fucking line up behind me to wait, or attempt to throw your garbage in there when there isn\’t a bag in it either. Yes one of the hydro guys were about to do that, these people are supposed to take care of my hydro? Really not comforting, not in the least! Also jackass don\’t waltz in my restaurant 5 minutes before closing an expect to sit there and fucking eat! Yes my french sucks ass and I\’m sorry but I do try. However don\’t sit there and chew my ass out for it!

So moving along, I got this great e-mail today and feel the need to pass it on because it is a gem!

Its been a while…

And it will continue to be a while because I am without a PC dammit! I am also boderline poor at the moment, so I won\’t be able to up-date for a while. I am going home for christmas though so I can use my mom\’s computer thank God!

Anyway in the meantime, happy holidays to all of my readers regardless of how you celebrate it!

Get smashed, enjoy the snow and irritate your friends by buying them sex toys 😉

Bring on the hatered!

So Sunday I have a \”discussion\” with my boss…

He wants me to do more!!!!! WTF, I DO EVERYTHING as it is, do you want my left fucking arm too while your at it??????

So they finally discovered that I know how to cook, so they want me up front at all times doing the set-ups and what not. I was told by 2 different managers not to do any cleaning IE: the floors and things because we hired a new guy to do all that stuff! So what do I do? Don\’t do it lol.

What happens because of that? He calls one of the owners and cry\’s to him and wanted me fired because I didn\’t clean the floor when I was TOLD NOT TO! Seriously what the hell is wrong with people! Granted we have some serious cultural differences which are creating obvious conflicts. He keeps fishing for excuses to get me to do more work without actually getting paid more yet he dangles the proverbial money carrot in my face ALL the time. I ain\’t buying into that BS, no thanks jackass, get a clue then we\’ll talk some!

So after I found that out I started looking for a new job, spent 1/2 hour on the phone with the exec Chef of a better paying restaurant who\’s looking for head cooks and he seems impressed with me, he actually said as much. So Monday I go for an interview, keep your fingers and toes crossed for me!

Also one of the chef\’s at work has taken hitting on me too far! Can we say sexual harassment. He grabbed my ass, finds ANY excuse to rub up against me and has been calling me honey all day.

Good, I can go after them when I quit! My PC has the speed of a snail these days so I can\’t up-date much until I install more ram.
