quietly mutes that thread

I guess a lot of people like the story about the time my manager called me while I was at the wedding breakfast of my best friend's wedding to tell me the person who I got to cover my shift hadn't shown and demand I find another person to cover, right then and there

I told her like, look i am in my bridesmaid dress right now. I am At The Wedding Breakfast we are drinking mimosas. I did my job, I turned in my paperwork, it was approved. Even if it was my job, which it was NOT, I had neither the names or numbers or schedules of anyone else at that job. Manager sure did tho!!

I said even if I HAD that info I was NOT about to LEAVE MY BEST FRIEND'S WEDDING to go do her job for her. I told her I would not be doing that and i was going to go back to the wedding and I would see her next shift and I hung up.

Went to my next shift like normal and she never said a thing to me about it, no write-up no nothing, so I think she knew she had fucked up a little there. anyway I was at that job for like 5 years so.

idk who ended up covering that shift and I kinda hope she ended up having to throw an apron on and do it herself lol

people love it when you tell managers to fuck off directly or indirectly on twitter

yeah like in story form it is satisfying to be like "one time I got to tell my manager to eat shit" but at the time it was pretty enraging

and honestly the only thing that saved me from disciplinary action on it was probably a paper trail + it being a very sloppily run department that just didn't care enough
