Vent About Your Job Here

[Dexter Morgan]

From the sounds of it the only reason she might want them is for the support money and thats just totally wrong.  Lets hope they don't end up with her.

Him and his wife are back together!!! In a way I'm glad, because he tried to hang himself over the weekend, and luckily it didn't work. He has rope burns on his neck. He needs professional help soooo bad, it's horrible to see him in this shape. He's been getting drunk and stoned every night. He looks horrible, almost like walking death.  He looks almost hollow, his eyes don't look right. A very sad situation indeed.

  Here's a vent.... Next week, I have to work 5 days instead of 4 like I usually do. All 5 days are salad days.  This pisses me off because on salad days I open. It wouldn't be sooo bad, if my lazy ass boss would help with anything, but she sits on her ass doing absolutely nothing, while I'm running around like a chicken with its head cut off. Luckily, 2 days I will open with the assistant manager, she helps a lot. I get sick to death of my boss' laziness, it gets real old. I guarantee by Friday I'll be super bitch.

You could always call in sick one of the days that the assistant manager isn't going to be there...

That's a great idea, but if I did that I'd be doing 5 days of salads a week for a month. I can't win for losing.

Oh not good.  I retract my suggestion.

I guess him and his wife are NOT back together. This whole thing has played out, exactly the way I figured it would. He put in his 2 weeks notice yesterday. He's really in need of professional help. He told everybody he is going to become a drifter. His first stop...... New York. His wife wanted everything, and that's what she is getting. The house, the car, the kids,and the bills. He's walking away from it all.

I don't blame him for quitting, but he can't walk away from his responsibilities, it's not that easy. I hope he gets the help he needs.

His kids will grow up without their father. It is history repeating itself. Travis and Franks Dad went to jail for attempted murder when they were little. Their Mama is a crack whore. The way I understand it.... Travis has been supporting his Mom, Frank,his wife,and his 2 kids. It's no wonder he's cracked under the strain of everything. I hate to see him go. He's a good guy ,and a hard worker, a few of us are carrying the place, and he's one of us. I shudder to think who my boss will come up with to replace him.  She has a piss poor track record for everything she does.

Hate to hear things have worked out that way for him.

It's a very sad situation all the way around.

It's a shame and it's not easy, life isn't easy, but he has the ability to break the cycle . . . he just has to be strong enough to do it or provided w/the right motivation. If he loves his children, then I'm sure he doesn't want this for them. He doesn't want them to grow up feeling like he does. The mother doesn't sound as if she'll provide the best environment for them either.

I don't blame him for wanting to get away from your boss, she's poison, but hopefully he'll find another job and reconsider leaving the kids behind and lastly get some help. Does he realize that he needs some help or is he the type that thinks he can handle it and there's nothing a therapist can do for him?

He would never get professional help willingly. At work we were discussing it today, and we think he has had a total nervous breakdown. Something really bad, is my coworkers are pissed, because they say he's being selfish, by leaving his kids behind. It is selfish, but he isn't in his right mind right now. I tell them..... if Travis was his normal self, he would never do this. We all know that. They don't seem to understand what has happened, and how profound the effect has been. He just isn't all there.  I would LOVE to bitch slap my boss. Not just because of this deal with Travis, but because of the person she is. She is lower than a troll.

NOT GOOD TIMES!!!! 

[Dexter Morgan]

Well, tomorrow I start the work week from hell. This weekend went by in double time. Five days of opening the store. UGH!!!  At least tomorrow and Tuesday, I open with our assistant manager. She actually helps a lot. Wed - Fri I open with my boss. UGH!!!  She doesn't do a single thing to help out anybody. She's liable to hear a few words about her laziness somewhere around Thursday.  Thursday, is my most dreaded day of the week. I open at work, gas the car up, go to the bank, and do my Walmart shopping. I usually get home around 4:00 and have a few minutes to rest, before I get Hubby up, fed,and off to work. Then I have to feed the critters, carry all the Walmart shit in, and put it all away. Then comes laundry, and whatever housework that needs to be done. I usually don't make it here until after 8. I hate Thursdays.  That's usually when I finally get something to eat too.
