Going with the theme of getting crapped on for the last week and a half, fate decided to threaten my job.
It seems there is a chance I will be fired from Wal-mart. At this point I am still in a state of shock and am not sure how to feel or react to this. It does suck though. Since I will more than likely be fired from the job I actually like come August.
Let me explain:
During my 9 hour, mundane Monday, I was growing so crazy with boredom, I decided to play a practical joke on my hubby. In the midst of the fabulous remodel we got a fancy new time clock. One of these high tech new features is that you can change the language it uses for you to Spanish.
*I just couldn't resist.*
So even though it is a HUGE offense to use another persons badge, I swiped Matt's and left him a little surprise. Turns out though, that since the universe is pulling against me, an "error message" came up for Matt but it was of course in Spanish so Matt has no idea what it says. It may be a "missed punch" and he might not be paid for his day of work on the 27th because he wasn't able to correct it.
Matt was furious. Even though it was a practical joke gone awry, I got an earful. He already told Personnel what I did and they will probably report it to a manager. Who will then decide what to do with me. Swiping someone else's time card is no funny business. And I shouldn't have done it, but how was I to know?
I'm so stupid. When will I learn?
I always thought I would get fired from Wal-Mart because I am going to snap one day. In my fit of crazed rage I thought I might take one of those shotguns to the T.V.s that play the same 5 commercials over and over all day long. I might have ripped down the twilight display, or thrown someone into it. (who deserved it of course.) Or my personal favorite, sucker punched one of the other associates. (who deserved it of course.)
But not this. This is the lamest reason ever to get fired. Fired. From Wal-Mart. Eggghhh.

Okay, first of all... WTF is that other comment about!?! People spamming my Connie's blog!?! Jerks.
Second, Matt is a poo poo head for telling on you. Did he know it was you playing a joke, or did he think it was someone else? Regardless... if they choose to fire you, I want you to yell... YELL... "YOU CAN'T FIRE ME!!! I QUIT!!!!!!!!!!"
And then shove them into a Twilight display... *snort*
Seriously though, babe, we've all done dumb stuff at work. I forgot to send home permission slips for a field trip once and then went on the field trip, taking my students with me, and not telling the ninth grade center principal I was taking her students with.... OMAN... I was in DEEP crap for that one!!!!!! And it was so dumb. I should have known. Oh well... life sure can be craptastic.
Srsly-who the heck is comment creeper #1? That is so funny though! What, do they do random word searches from blogs or something?? Weirdos.
Anyhoots. Sorry about the Wal-mart scare! But really...it's your husband, why he do that? He must have been pretty angry I guess, but I don't think you'll be fired. Maybe just a tsk tsk or something? Seriously, I thought I would be fired when sometimes I wouldn't put 50 cents in that hot chocolate machine in the break room...lol. I would always pay up but like...not at the exact moment of hot cocoa consumption. Anyways, the universe is telling me it will work out :) Crazy though!
Oh. My. G. Did I just get junkmailed on my blog!!!???
What is this dot.com world coming to? I'll rely on my own resources, thank you. Just like I have my entire life.
Screw off!
