Perkins Make Ups
Tuesday, January 18, 2005
Well at least one good thing has happened this week.

Today at work I was SO nervous because I KNEW I had to confront Teddy about what's been going on at work. I hate confrontations like that, I either try to ignore the problem or I just flip out. However, I knew that doing either of those would be bad.

So Teddy came in at 5 and I immediately told him that I wanted to talk. So we went into the back office and I just came out with it. I asked him if the reason he was cutting me was because he didn't think I was working and he flat out said yes. Basically he said that one night he asked me to bus tables and when I went off to do it I muttered that it wasn't my job. Which it's not, it's either the busser's or server's job, but I do help out most of the time so the servers don't have to bus when we don't have a busser around. However, I hate being told to do it, like it's part of my job. He then said that 5 minutes later I left people waiting at the till. I don't even remember this but... I dunno. So I apologized and then said that it really bummed me out to have to hear that from other people rather than Teddy and he apologized for that.

Then he went on to say that it also pissed him off because of this incident that occured that actually turned out to be a total misunderstanding. A week or two ago Teddy called in asking for Dustin's number, wanting Dustin to work for him that night. Teddy sounded really bad so I texted Dustin, knowing he probably wouldn't answer. I told D that he should at least call Teddy back and maybe work for him because Teddy sounded like he was going through a rough time. When Teddy came in that night and said Dustin never answered I said that I had texted Dustin, but I must have made it sound like I was trying to be funny and told Dustin not to answer. Teddy was super pissed at me, even though in reality I was really trying to look out for him. SO he sent me home that night. Soooo, he apologized for that too. So... now we're square, I guess. I worked my entire shift tonight and Teddy actually let me stay an hour later, probably because he felt bad.

I feel SO much better. I need to start handling all my issues like this because then maybe my life would be more harmonious. Sometimes it's hard because I'm used to dealing with Rich, who never listened whether or not I was trying to be an adult. So... maybe I will try things out tomorrow with Dustin. That's a whole different issue.

As for tonight I am going to bed soon, I didn't sleep well last night so it's time to catch up. More soon!

About

I'm just a girl trying to find my place in the world. I don't claim to be perfect and I don't expect anyone in my life to try to be that way either. I try to keep only good, positive and trustworthy people around me. I've been burned in the past but right now I feel like things are pretty good. I'm in the middle of re-applying to school, I work full time at Caribou Coffee and in between I just want to have fun. I am only 23, after all, and I want to live it up. Like what you see? Feel free to read more.
