So I guess I can be a little lazy at work and slack off a bit at times, so I was actually pulled into the office yesterday and told "We've noticed lately that you've not been doing your job properly, blah blah, we just need you more focused or else we'll be putting you up front more frequently."
Okay, no big deal. Today was shipment day, I was the photo tech. on duty - if photo got busy it should be understood I wouldn't be able to put truck away very quickly.
NOT TODAY.
Everyone seemed to be treating me as if I were a little kid and kept reminding me to get my water and drink cart put away, and I kept telling them "Taking care of a photo customer, I'll get to it when I'm done."
Also while working on my cart I was speaking to my department supervisor, mind you I am shelving the drinks WHILE talking. No big deal. So I ended up asking him about starting a system where each photo tech would be responsible for 2 of the doors within the cooler that way we can keep it kept up more efficiently and the work wouldn't fall all onto one person who was just unlucky enough to be asked to clean it that day.
We pitch the idea to a manager and he approves it so we go ahead and assign the two door sections to each of the techs and move along.
Photo happened to be busy today, so it took me a little bit longer than expected. Around 3 I tried to find someone who could run the ink cartridges so I could finish my work, and no one could so I ended up having to go and on my way to go do them I was again stopped and questioned by a non-management employee about my cart.
"I just have a few things to put back in the stockroom, most of it is overstock."
"You should have had that done a long time ago"
"I've been being called to photo to help customers all day, I had to give people their lunch and 15 minute breaks, and I had my own lunch. I will get it done as soon as possible."
My department supervisor steps over and asks her to not question his employees as it isn't her place.
So I get back around 3:40 after having filled the inkjet cartridges, and finish up my cart and then get the photo department cleaned up so I could go for the day. After putting away the returns I go to let my manager know that I was leaving, and while doing so I asked him if he thought I did any better than I had been doing - and he tells me "Yes, but that cooler idea was a distraction - you don't need to be doing things like that on truck day."
Despite the fact that I came up with it WHILE WORKING ON TRUCK. :| Asked my supervisor about it - WHILE WORKING ON EMPTYING MY CART, PITCHED THE IDEA TO MY MANAGER WHILE WORKING ON EMPTYING MY CART.
Fuck a manager, fuck a bitchy register employee, fuck a Walgreens.
