Hey guys! I miss all your faces!
Now then...prepare for the rant/complaining/bitching

Alright! The reason why I haven't been able to post or anything like I planned this summer is because of MY JOB if you don't know I work in a grocery store bakery...I'm not going to say what WELL-KNOWN grocery store...if you really wanna know PM me.
But yeah I really do like my job in the bakery. I think it's fun, I learn a lot the longer I'm there about pastries and cakes and icing and stuff.
I honestly learn a lot from just watching my co-workers...BUT! BUUUUT I will admit the management FUCKING SUCKS!!
For one..there is absolutely no constancy in the schedule...you literally never know what days you are working until the schedule comes out WHICH is supposed to be every THURSDAY but no..sometimes it doesn't come out til FRIDAY NIGHT or SATURDAY MORNING
Oh! But don't plan your week yet..cuz they might change some shit ad have an entirely new schedule on the wall on SUNDAY
Aaand if you do't work sunday...you have to come into work on your day off and double check the schedule beacuse they will not call you to ask if the changes are okay with you...or even to call and warn you that changes were made...they'll just call you and be like
--"Where are you? Ypu have a 9am-4pm shift andit is now 10:39."
Me--"No I was supposed to have today off...I checked the new schedule on Friday night before I left...I was supposed to have today off"
--"Well the schedule changed on Sunday. You should have came in and re-checked it...so now you're late and have half a point."

Just a few weeks ago before the convention when the schedule came out they had me marked to work the days of the con but I had put in for the days off WAAAYY BACK IN FEBRUARY and I was approved by my old manager. At first one of the managers wasn't gonna give me the days off, so I went over his head to the other manager and got the days off that I asked for far enough in advance. So I enjoyed myself at the con just for e to come back and another manager called me to the backroom which usually only happens when they tell you your total amount of points and give you warnings or write ups.
So he told me that I was supposed to show up on Saturday but never did so I was explaining to him what happened while the manager who TOLD ME I HAD THE DAY OFF WAS STANDING RIGHT NEXT TO US EAVESDROPPING. I was so fucking pissed because he wasn't helping me and explaining that he was the one who approved for me not to come in...so I rudely moved passed the manager scolding me and stared into the soul of the eavesdropping manager and said.."HEY! Remember last week you approved me not to come in on Saturday cuz I asked for that day off?"
and then I was upset so I just looked at the manager who was scolding me earlier and pointed back at the other manager and said "Yeah, he made the schedule and he was the one who told me I had the day off and it would be taken care of" and then I walked away...cool as fuck with an explosion behind me and everything.....
At the end of last week the Deli manager aka the eavesdropping manager was talking to a coworker of mines while I was on the phone taking a cake order and stuff and I heard my name in the conversation. So after I got off the phone with the customer I asked my coworker what did the Deli manager say..she told me that he said that her and I, along with another worker from the bakery were going to working in the Deli next week because the bakery is "OVER-BUDGET" and we don't have any hours to work there...?
So at the end of my shift I waled up to the Deli manager boss as fuck and asked him what the hell was going on. He said the same thing my coworker said...but the Deli manager KNOWS THAT I HATE WORKING IN THE DELI. So I asked him if it was mandatory that I worked there. He just looked at me all smug like and was all
"If you want a job then you do"
How fucking rude was that? I just reminded him that I was uncomfortable with the deli and being around meat and such and he just shrugged his shoulders. When I left he just said "Dontcha like making money?"I replied with "I make money but never spend it...I'm not money hungry"
So the next day I was in the bakery and I was working the early shift so I got to see some people I normally don't. A lot of them mentioned that they missed seeing me and working with me. I had mentioned that they wouldn't be able to see me the next week because I'd be in the deli. Everyone stopped what they were doing and kind of gasped because EVERYONE KNOWS I HATE WORKING IN THE DELI
The bakery manager was there that morning and she was unaware of what was going on so I just told her what the deli manager told me and she was upset. I didn't know that no one told her...but yeah she tried to change some things but couldn't...
So its SUNDAY! I had to walk up to work to check the schedule...seeing as it is a known fact about how I feel towards the deli...I was hoping to only be working there like..4 days for 5hrs..but NOOOOOO
My schedule was Sunday 12-8pm Tues-Fri 12-8pm.
Now to some of you the schedule may not seem like a big deal...but I'm a part-timer who is use to 6.5hr shifts where I have off days in betwwen and...Im usually in the bakery...which is easier and more fun >3>
So yeah...working in the Deli...where smeone always calls in making it short staffed which means I work 8hrs straight without breaks or lunch.
Wednesday is my nirthday...amd I already had a feeling that I would work...but..NOT IN THE DELI DX
I honestly wanted to call in tomorrow but..my mom wom't let me...cuz "grown-ups work on their birthdays"
Every night I stay up late because I dont want the next day to come...because honestly my friends needed to help calm me down before the first day..I felt really sick to my stomach and my heart was kinda beating a bit faster than usual and I felt like I couldn't catch my breath...like I was running or something but I was just lying down.
I realize that this is how I feel every morning before I get ready to work in the Deli...some days I feel like crying...or like I have to throw up..so because of that I haven't really had an appetite...does anyone know what this means?
The bakery manager doesn't know how long I will have to be in the deli...she even suggested that if things get bad for me to look for another job.....
I have all these unclear thoughts like..I haven't been at my job for 1 year yet...and that I LOVE the bakery...but hate the deli
What do you guys think? SHould I leave and find a new place to work?
UGH IM SO CONFUSED!!
