Today, at 6:30, right before Denise went home, she called me into her office and informed me that I had been written up for an act of "insubordination" which apparently occurred last Friday, and presented me with a handwritten list of my duties which I am to fulfill. (Assist Express customers, clean and fill all machines, WASH THE FRONT DOORS AND WINDOWS - note that the entire front wall of the store is a window - and I've never been told that it was my responsibility to keep it clean before...) I was also informed that I was told earlier this week that I'm not supposed to take customers' orders, and that since then she has seen my name in the "order taker" field of five orders, and if it happens again I will be written up again. She wrapped this up with informing me that if she doesn't think I'm doing better by May 22 I'm going to be fired.

Tomorrow I'm going to call in sick and spend the day looking for a new job.

Clay says she tried to write HIM up for insubordination last week, but he contested to Doug - the general manager - who was, conveniently, not there when Denise wrote me up today.

I hate this fucking job.

I am so very, very pissed that I do not have an appropriate icon: a very grim LOOK OF DEATH. I am using my Very Grim Serious Pissed-Off Voice.

That is bullshit. I don't blame you for it - though, I wouldn't be surprised in the least if they try to fire you for calling in sick today. It sounds like just the kind of thing they would do.

Assholes.

(And I'll use my pissed off icon for you.)

That's bullshit. You want I should send Mr. Liotta to have a talk with them?

Good luck with the job search.

Jesus. That is the most seriously fucked up store I think I have ever heard of. Best of luck with the job search. Nobody needs that crap.
