Spike's Bitches 28: For the Safety of Puppies...and Christmas!  

Closed Threads

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Skipping ahead because I have to whine. THEY FLOODED MY LIBRARY AGAIN. Sorry about the asscaps, but ^#$%^#*!

Fortunately, it was during the day this time, so we were able to save the books with only minor wetness, but I'm so sick of this. They did fix the pipes, but another agency upstairs persists in using a water cooling system for their computers that overflows and floods us.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Because water and computers mix so well. Sorry to hear they're messing you up.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

This week I am scheduled for a four hour on call shift (I probably won't get called in), and I one hour store meeting on Saturday. Next week week I have just one hour on call shift, and that is it. Why do I have a job again? This sucks.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

This is why they have that fun compressed gas system that saves the computers (though not so good for people as I recall) without water. [eta: Google wasn't helpful but its whatever TD Waterhouse uses in its Call Centers... Also why I know not to push big red buttons no matter how inviting.]

Why do I have a job again?
Employee discount? A few extra bucks? Really I got nothing. (sj)

Woe to the fucking wicked.

She already has a key, drives here

Ok. For this, I will cede my claim to Lowest-Maintenance Houseguest.

THEY FLOODED MY LIBRARY AGAIN

Oy. No good.

Persactly. I had to give you my house keys and car before I abandoned you.

Um, I'm not winning for best host, like, ever.

Oh, that is the best part. The employee discount we got at the sister stores isn't supposed to go into effect for 90 days after your hire date. The gave them to the Christmas hires immediately because they wanted us to buy our Christmas gifts there, but after Christmas they took them away again. No one ever mentioned this to me when I was hired. As for the extra bucks, if I don't get my on call shifts I will be making $7.50 this week and nothing next week.

it sounds like they're trying to get rid of the Christmas hires. In a fucking demeaning fucked up fucking asshole way.

Yeah. I think they are trying to get some of us to quit now. I am guessing they don't want to actually lay people off until after Valentine's Day because it should be busy. Hopefully, I will get some good hours in the first two weeks of February.
