bleeeeeeerg...

work. have I told you how much I hate work? *sigh* why why why was I born to be a spoiled rotten princess?

It's horrible, the rest of the fam has this puritan-german work ethic--it's scary. BG has had a job since she was 14, can you believe it? she hounded the local pizza place into hiring her under the table--(what? it's New Jersey--it's tradition). Mr. Roxy has worked since he was knee high to a grasshopper. And me? I got my first job at 16--and my next job at 21. It was sadly downhill from there, except for a brief period in time after BG was born and I got to be a stay at home mom. More on that another day (oy!)....

I asked for a transfer to the new Targe-hell they are building not far from the Rose Castle. I have to wait until January to find out what's what. If I last that long. Target is a weird place to work for. It *is* like working for family though. A huge dysfunctional family, with a repressive and over controlling distant father who makes up arbitrary rules and and only tells half the family about them and punishes the half that doesn't know what they are...*gasp* why, it's just like coming home everyday I go to work!

Kidding! pretty much

Goodness! Is that the time? Must dash! See you in your lj :)

(((hugs)))you. I love you Roxy.

I let Target treat me like shit because I needed the money. Then, I got another part-time job to treat me like shit, so I told them to kiss my ass.

Right now, I'm a high school librarian.

Everyone else has to sign it at 8:20 and sign out at 4:10.

I have to sign in at 7:45 and sign out at 4:30, but I'm not getting paid extra. I'm suppsed to, supposedly, but I don't.

All teachers in Texas get a 30 minute uninterrupted lunch.

All teachers get 900 minutes of uniterrupted planning time too.

I get butkus.

I eat in the library in front of the kids. These bastard gangsters came in the library with their subways, drinks, and chips.

I told them the library was not the cafeteria, and they just kept arguing. I finally got them to leave.

Then, I went to the library kitchen to get my tiny lunch of cottage cheese and fruit and eat it.

I don't get a lunch, a break, or a planning period.

Those bastards ran back in the library and started yelling at me for being a hypocrite and eating there at the circulation desk.

I told them, "You're right. You have a cafeteria to go eat in, and I don't but you're right. I'll stop eating right now."

I put my lunch away.

And then I said, "Now get the hell out of my library!"

My job sucks too.
