It would sure explain your getting Mother's Day off though if she already knew she wasn't going to give you the week off that you had asked for. 
That's what I think too. I know she's scared I'll get pissed off and quit. They can't afford to lose me. The customers love me LOL!!! I pretty much carry the place, and I'm not bragging, just stating facts here. Nobody does a damn thing around there. Most of my coworkers stand around eating,talking to each other, and talking/texting on their cell phones all day. :rolleyes: Here's Dex running around like a chicken with its head cut off. Nobody stocks, or cleans anything.In the mornings I have to stock the dinning room, and clean it. That stuff is SUPPOSE to be done by the closer. I always end up picking up the slack. I've already decided if I don't get my vacation, I'm going to be late for work everyday during that week. LMAO!!!  :icon_twisted: I know... I'm terrible.... but 2 weeks a year is the only time I get to see very much of Hubby. We look forward to spending those 2 weeks together. :yes:

You could decide all of a sudden not to pick up the slack and see what happens.  I realize you have the customers to think of but if you just start leaving a little bit off here and there that should have been done by the night crew maybe she'll get the hint that you ain't gonna work yourself to like a slave any longer while the others just stand around.   ;D

I've been doing that to an extent recently. I think my boss realizes it too. I just wish the management wasn't soooo dependent on me. They expect a lot out of me. The kids get away with a lot of crap. If I have a bad day, my coworkers get pissed, because Dex isn't EVER suppose to be in a bad mood. Somedays, I just can't muster being the jolly jackass, I am most of the time. Sometimes, I think people liken me to Wonder Woman, or some such super hero LOL!!! Good God.... it never ends.  :no:

Well, my boss is on vacation this week.  :party:  I think it will be a reasonably good week. Everybody is MUCH more relaxed when she's gone.  :yes: I know I will be. I'm only opening 3 days this week. I'll be opening with our AM, and she helps A LOT in the mornings. Last week, I opened 4 days, and 3 of them were with my boss. Needless to say, I worked my ever lovin' ass off last week.  :rolleyes: So, yeah I'm  very glad she's gone. Tomorrow, I only work 11 to 2. I love those 3 hour shifts. They fly by real fast, and it feels like I was never there LMAO!!! GOOD TIMES!!!  :sofa:

The whole week was a fricken disaster!!! I ended up opening 4 days. One of our shift managers had a medical emergency in her family. Then on Wednesday we had a boil order in place, so we had to boil water to make everything. And we had to serve bottled pop. We only had 3 kinds so people were pissy about that. Thursday, the shift manager I referred to earlier, left the store at 10:30, and I was the only one there besides the cook, when we opened at 11:00. I had customers lined out the door, and no way to pack orders, because we're not suppose to leave the counter ,when we have people waiting. I ran out of ones$ and luckily my coworker Joe got there, because it was pandemonium. The shift manager didn't get back until almost 11:30. I was soooo pissed, I wanted to throttle her really bad. I made sure to tell the AM the next day. Then I found out she did the same thing that  same night, to the night shift.  :spooked: I was soooo glad when Friday came, that I coulda done a pantless cartwheel.  :yes:

Today, my boss had to eat some serious crow LMAO!!!! Yesterday, our AM told us that we're getting rid of one of our biggest selling products. (I can't tell what it is, but it's a shocker).  :spooked: She had gotten an e mail from the store owner about it. This morning when I mentioned it to my bitch.... er...um.... boss, she said there was no way we were getting rid of it, and basically called the AM a liar. Well, the bitch...er...um... boss found the e mail. So, she comes out and said "Oh, I guess we are getting rid of that." Before I had time to think, my mouth flew open, and I said in a VERY snotty tone..."Well Karen I guess it's time to eat some crow!!!"  :spooked: LMAO!!!! The look on her face was priceless!!!  :icon_twisted: She always has to be right,whether she is or not. So, it was a lot of fun watching her make a complete fool of herself.  :biggrin:
