I hate Wednesdays
Im a retail manager. My first notification this morning was my opening cashier calling in, which set me behind on the things i needed to do this morning. I’m the only manager for the majority of my shift which means i cant leave, which means doordash or starve. So i get doordash and accidentally put it on my bosses card. So I shamefully text her, apologize, zelle, ect. And we have 3 separate trucks coming today so i tried to schedule my lunch after they’re due, but the biggest one ends up showing up at the same time as my food. While im pulling this truck in and my foods getting cold, im also on the phone with my bank because i was notified someone was using my card at a churches chicken this morning. Between all this im getting called to the front because 2 customers have returns and again, only manager. Once i get those things taken care of, Im being called because a customer is refusing to pay for part of her services. Takes 15 minutes to get ahold of my boss and figure out how to sort my employees commissions for the work that was done. I finally get everything situated and im about to sit down and eat when, of course, my closing shift lead texts me to call in. We’re short handed, its only me, her, and the boss who only has one day off a week to take her mother in law to dr appointments. So suddenly my 8hr shift is 13hrs. I eat lunch through tears and go to smoke a cigarette and boom, my last cigarette. Right as my shift restarts. I type all this as its 3:30pm. And there were other really shitty parts of my day i left out of this just to try and keep it short. Theres so much day to go, and its not looking good.
