I am SO FUCKING SICK of certain people at work. I'm tired of it. I am one of the people that has been at that store the longest (with the exception of Claire) and yet I get treated like crap by someone who is a total idiot.
Ellie. God I am starting to hate her. She's a busy body, she's nosy, she acts like she knows everything and like she's the boss of everyone and everything. I can't stand it anymore. I'm tired of having to be nice to her because it's work and I don't want to cause trouble. I just want to shake her and tell her she can't always have her way and she doesn't have to act like such a goddamn bitch when she doesn't get her way.
I'm not even going to go into all the reasons why I can't stand her. I will name a few recent things, though:
- Sunday I come into work and, big surprise, nothing's done. It's not a surprise because Ellie spends so much time in the back room talking to Chris and Jake that she can't seem to get her real work done. So then she's in back looking at the schedule and realizes that on Thursday she's scheduled to work at 2 (I'm in from 2 to close). Well she's all pissy because she's supposed to work at Lund's at 12:30 and she supposedly told Chris that. I tell her to call Martha to see if maybe she can come in from 12 to 2. Martha can't so then she calls Chris, who tells her somehow it will get figured out. Meanwhile I go out front to start doing all the work she didn't do. Travis and Danny are there and then Ellie walks out. She asks if I can possibly come in at noon instead of 2. I tell her I'll come in at 1 but I don't want to do a noon to close... that means I have to leave here at 11 and I'm not back home until 10. There's no way. She pulls the "I'd do it for you" card which is BULLSHIT because I know she wouldn't. I tell her no, I'll come in at one but not noon and not 12:30. So right away she gets this fucking attitude with me and acts like it's my fault that she got scheduled wrong and how dare I not work 9 and a half fucking hours and be away from home for 11 and a half. UGH! She does this right in front of Danny and Travis and customers.
- The other reason I'm so frickin' annoyed is today. We had a manager meeting about certain things coming up in the store. When we were done talking about that Chris asked if we had anything else to say. Ellie and Jake kept coming up with all this extra stuff for the night crew to do and it was making me mad because it already falls on us that if the morning crew doesn't finish their tasks then the night crew has to do it. So I say that it'd be nice if the morning crew could pay more attention to their tasks so that it doesn't overlap for the night crew. I explained that yesterday was ridiculously busy and that not a whole lot was done and I ended up having to keep Travis for an extra hour so that I could play catch up. Ellie IMMEDIATELY gets defensive and says that she did too get things done and that it was hard because it was so busy. Well no duh you stupid bitch, it was just as busy when I came in and I got all my stuff done PLUS yours. UGH! Martha, Chris and Jake were just like "Woah" as if there was going to be a cat fight, which pisses me off SO MUCH because I wasn't bitchy about it at all, so why does she have to be?
I can't stand it. I am so sick of her acting like she's my boss when she doesn't even do her job well. She thinks she's little miss princess and she can do whatever she wants and nothing she does is wrong. It sucks!
UGH!
Okay, I'm done with my rant now. I just really needed to vent because I am so tired of being treated badly. It really upsets me and gets to me. I know it shouldn't but I feel like I don't get treated with the amount of respect that I deserve and a lot of that is because Ellie makes it seem like she's so wonderful when she isn't.
And on top of that Dustin scared me to death tonight because he wasn't home and wasn't asnwering his phone.
It's just been one of those days.
More (hopefully better stuff) soon.
