1. "He's a good worker...the only days he can't work are Fri and Sat because he's got that religion. You know, that one where he can't work from sunset to sun-up...Oh, what's it called...I had a guy at (insert other location) that had it too."
2. Picture a person with a rag in their hand cleaning when a manager approaches: "A, today when your not busy I need you to do (hands over a list)"
Me: "OK, well GM, I have already done (check marks 3 of the 4 items off the list) and as you can see am half done with item four.
GM: "Oh. (looks at list, looks over what I have checked off) Oh."
I see no end to the shit that my managers say so stay tuned for more :-) ....Oh and my computer is fixed so I will be back on a more regular basis.
"I know you've been here 8 hours, but can you hang out a little longer? What if we get busy?"
ReplyDeleteTwo hours before closing..
Lol -- the idiot manager makes "that religion" sound like a disease. I've worked with people who think if you are not loosely Christian, then something is wrong with you.
ReplyDeleteOn another note: me: sir, would you like another beer?
Dude: yes, but not until my meal comes
manager approaches same table: sir, refresh your beer?
Dude, probably trying to avoid being approached every 2 minutes: oh, okay.
manager to me in the kitchen: HE HAD AN EMPTY BEER GLASS!!!
Would it have been so damn hard to just ask me before approaching my table? Gawd, I hate micro-managers...
All manager's intentions are not bad, remember, the manager takes care of the beast from which we all feed.

Hi,
ReplyDeleteGreat site! I'm trying to find an email address to contact you on to ask if you would please consider adding a link to my website. I'd really appreciate if you could email me back.
Thanks and have a great day!
@J.R.--true that, most of the time I remember that my managers do have the unenviable job of babysitting 100 some odd employees. plus a lot of what they say isn't intended to insult anybody but they don't realize the way that they say things are just freaking hilarious
