in general, my hardest days at work are the days i have to close with my shift lead, andrea.
man oH MAN. i really hate speaking ill about anyone, but considering that im anonymous on here and the extremely slim chance of this having repercussions irl because of that, im gonna use this as an opportunity to rant a little bit.
so ive been working at my job for nearly two years now, which is a long time considering that it's just a part time pizza place. im literally the employee that's lasted the longest, most likely bcuz my coworkers tend to be teenagers. this is fine, because the job's pretty easy and low stress for the most part, and nearly all of us get along (including my head manager, who's 26 and literally an ANGEL. she's the best ever and i even go to concerts with her sometimes lol).
THAT IS, ALL EXCEPT FOR ANDREA.
i was there when she got hired. she used to be a regular before she started working, and even as a CUSTOMER she was high maintenance and annoying. you know, one of those people who claims to be allergic to everything and makes it's everyone else's problem. like be for REAL man, this is a buffet-style pizza place. every topping has touched every other topic. just- just don't come if you have a severe allergy! there are soooo many other pizza places that are better equipped for that, cuz like, we're not equipped for it at ALL. but i digress.
so yeah, as you can expect working with her wasnt any better, because she's rude, high maintenance, and LOVES to power trip. i think she gets off on thinking she can because she's 45, which is on average a good 30 years older than most of our employees.
BUT, considering that i'm also an adult who has worked over a year longer than her, you'd think she'd at least treat me with respect.
NO!!!
girl treats me like im dumb and then gives me passive aggressive attitude when i dont do things her way. i say HER WAY, because it's not the right way. she'll try to tell me to do things differently, against what i was taught by our GENERAL MANAGER who certainly has more power over her, just to be able to boss me around.
also she keeps bringing up reaaaaally intimate conversations about what goes on between her and her current boyfriend, not only to me but to several of the teenagers as well. and it's just super uncomfortable and inappropriate for the workplace. nobody will ask, and she basically just trauma dumps. newsflash!! coworkers are NOT licensed therapists so maybe please don't go into excruciating details about what's going on in your love life. thanks!
TLDR; anytime i work with a certain coworker is the hardest day at work lol.
^ a 7 hour bussing shift on EASTER!? that sounds brutal man, but the paycheck will for sure be worth it haha! i also can never sleep when i have breaks from college, im just drumming with a combination of excited and anxious energy from wanting to make the most of my time. allow yourself to rest if you need though, and if you can't sleep at night, then day naps are your best friend! don't push yourself too hard, you're allowed to spend some time lazing around too. but most of all, have fun! <333 you got this
> just made an art shop for the first time in over 5 years here on CS!! im trying to get back into drawing as well as relearn how to use the oekaki system. it's so hard to use compared to procreate and clip studio grrrrgrgrgrrrr
v what's your favorite pet that you own on CS, and why? any fun story or personal connection you have about it?
