bridal show and more!

Well, this past week was very busy -- well busy for me, cuz usually i work and then sit around. hahah!
Friday night, lins and gregg invited us over for din-din and chillin time, but as usual only the lord new when I would be finished at work, so RJ went over and represented (haha for the hood tee hee), anyways, I hear i missed great times, with pizza and v for vendetta. but dont worry i was able to enjoy in the sunday fun!

saturday as usual, had to work early -- i have been going in at 6 am so that I can get all the tag changes down before the store opens at 7am, because otherwise it is too hectic and I will end up yelling at my boss again, like I did last weekend. anyways, I worked until about 4:30, left for church around 4:45 and then I was home around 6, RJ and I went to best buy so he could use the gift certificate my parents gave him for his b-day and then we had taco bell for dinner, why cuz its cheap and we are lazzzzy.............and we have to get all the junk in possible because as of october we are on our diets umph!!!

sunday was great -- well first I had to go to work and do the waste and then set everything up for kids for the rest of the day! Then, me, my mom and Beth headed over the bridal show, which was amazing. very busy, but soooo good. I saw sooo many great things, signed up for sooo many contests its unbelievable. I tried on a few wedding dresses, one of them I loved, except a lot of beads were loose and the dress had definitely been worked over. but at least I know the style that I want and the sizes were not as bad as I had been worrying about all along. Beth was tearing up it was cute!!

then that night, we headed over the lins and greggs so that we could finally give lin's her b-day gift hello, the beginning of august, how ridiculous are we!! we headed out for dinner at turtle jacks in burlington, it was great.....love the food there, i was ridculously stuffed, I think we all were!!! we went back to their home, and we watched some weird movie called OakBok or some like that -- well I didn't get to see much of the movie, because I fell asleep, how horrible am I!! But I was sooooooooooo tired I was up at 6 am yuck!! But it was a really fun night!!!

well I gotta go, suppose to be my day off tomorrow, but oh no, I gotta go in, because the stupid fresh manager forgot to tell me about some meeting tomorrow and thursday!! errrrr

this crazzy life we lead

well, you know when you want something to happen because it expect it to be one way, but ends up turning out completely different in the end. well, this has definitely been the experience for rj and myself once we got back to our old store. we both were soooo excited to get back there, but what began happening was just the worst thing possible, and it was never expected.

the first week we were back to help set-up --- we were both treated like garbage well rj more than me by our store manager. He would make comments like we were always together, when my deli specialist showed up, he told rj not to be around, even though he was explaining something to her, when RJ and I were discussing whether or not I could keep a rack of bbq chickens in his cooler, so we wouldn't have to go down stairs all of the time, he snapped at RJ and said it was none of his business and too only worry about his department. so needless to say it hasn't been the best working environment.

since then things have only gotten worst. there is tooo much work for both us in our departments and we have no help at all. I have no full time staff, we were finally able to get a few people to work during the day, but RJ was only allowed one full time meat cutter (who just a rude ass in my opinion, but we will to that story at a later time), so needless to say both of us are struggling.

SO, RJ has made the difficult decision to get a transfer to another store, we don't know where that will be yet but its definitely for the best. Who can stand working like this!! Anyways, he feels like he needs more training, I think he needs more help and cooperation, but I understand why he feels this way.

For me, well I exploded at my boss last saturday, because nothing i had asked for the part-times to do on friday was done, absolutely nothing and the deli was a horrible mess ---- I pretty much told him that he found someone better to hire them because no one listens to me. so at this point god only knows what is going to happen, I just wish I could something in parole or probation and get out of this whole thing entirely......

but i will keep wishing!!
