Wednesday, March 28, 2007 So last week was a vacation....or so I thought! M, J and I all went up to Mammoth for a week away from all the hustle and bustle of the city. However we weren't prepared for all the hell that would break loose up there and in my absence at work.We headed up on Tuesday night after J was running seriously late. This girl lacks serious common sense. To save on time lets just say M and I told her to be at the house at 2:30 and we didn't end up leaving until 5-5:30 due to having to run errands with her and get her ass in gear. (Remember people this is my maid of honor!) Luckily everyone was running late and so we were technically ok. We hit the road about 6:30-7 and were off for Mammoth. We hit absolutely no traffic, and except for the one road stop we were good and made great time. We got up there about 11 after M almost ran out of gas due to a miscommunication between him and his brother. The next day was ok, started off innocently enough. The girls (minus me) went off to the coach outlet to get purses. This is something we do every year so far. I didn't go due to M. He didn't want to go and deal with shopping, I can't blame him but it was rather imperative that he went due to the fact he was buying the purse for me for my x-mas present. (It's late but I could care) The fact I couldn't go put me in a rather depressed mood, along with the fact that the kids were getting on my nerves. (Back Track- We didn't get the cabin we originally reserved due to a serious plumbing problem. So M, J and I were stuck sleeping in the living room right next to the kitchen. ) I went in to severe shut down mode! We didn't have our own space, we didn't have our own bathroom, and we didn't have ANY privacy what so ever! This doesn't hold well with me especially since I'm an only child and have only been on trips with the max of 4 people....not 10 adults and 5 kids under the age of 10. So M and I went off on a drive to talk and get me out of my funk. However this got M upset and he started to cry a bit....he's fucking hot when he cries people, I mean hot! We got back and all was well in my world. Not to mention I was designated bloody mary mixer as well as scooby snack mixer. That night J, M and I were sitting at the table playing rummy. I'm drunk as can be from bloody marys and look at M and tell him we should sneak in the bathroom for a sec. I was only being slightly serious btw. I got up to go to the bathroom for real, and M followed in suite shortly after. Needless to say we had sex as quietly as possible on the bathroom counter. It was amazing! We ended up knocking something over and when we finished there was a yellow pages phone book on the floor. Apparently in the midst of our fuck fest B, M's brother went and slid it under the door. Poor J was interrogated as to our location and it became a big joke there after. Then next morning I was awoken to nothing but screaming children and disrespectful adults. I was LIVID! The day went on I got over it until I heard my niece was starting to act up. Then I got to wittiness her shit. (Personally I would smother that child in her sleep if she pulled that shit with me, and I LOVE kids.) We went home, I got drunk and all was well in my world yet again. Until the next morning....when we got woken up to screaming children and disrespectful adults yet again. This time I was going to kill someone! I went into the bathroom and proceeded to vent with M. I can understand children getting out of hand, but it's the adults responsibility to bring them back down to earth. Did that happen at all....not once! All in all I was so livid, as well as J and M we left that day! We were suppose to stay one more day but the 3 of us couldn't take it anymore! On the way home all of us stopped at Bishop which has a GREAT bakery. Everyone went with us and we went home from there, everyone else went back up to the cabin. While there my niece proceeds to pull another one of her fake cry fests just to get her way and EVERYONE has had enough of her crap. So I look at her and tell her that if she doesn't cut it out we're taking her home with M and me. To which she somewhat slows it down but not completely. On that note we left for home and all 3 of us were thankful! On Monday I came back to work after all hell had broken loose. My supervisor was called into a meeting with our Chief of the union, her boss, as well as both our union stewards, and the head of HR. She read my 4 page statement as well as others! She was told by the Chief that if it wasn't resolved that day he was taking it to higher authority and that would mean termination for her. That he was tired of walking into our department and having a line out the door of people complaining about treatment from her. They also got her to accidentally admit that she shows special treatment to others.....it went something like this. (Note-K is our master scheduler) HR-When K was out on leave who did you get to cover for her? Was it Ro or Ma? F(my supervisor)-No we got L to cover for K. HR-Why did L cover for her if Ro has higher seniority? F-Well L was the preferred by me and others at that time to do that position. Chief-So you're saying you pick people that you favor over others who should get the chance first!!!!!! F-Well uh, um, uh, eh, uh, no, I mean uh Chief-So you just admitted you give others preferential treatment. F-um uh, I uh...... I wish I could have been there to hear all of that! Oh and see her reaction to my statement. She apparently sighed and shook her head a lot with it and the Chief told her she needed to quit the attitude because it wasn't looking good for her. That and weather or not she thought what was said was true that this was obviously an issue not only with me but many other people. So yeah I'm home now and thankful to be here! I missed a lot! Oh M nailed it with the first interview and has a second coming up in a couple weeks. He's one of the top candidates or so they told him. I have an interview next Tuesday in Anaheim for a part time position. It's not full time, but at least I get benefits and the fuck out of where I'm at! |
