So, y'know how I had my first day of work at Woodburns yesterday? My drawer showed up $83 short. In all actuality it really wasn't MY drawer, but the lady who was training me. This woman, mind you, complains to customers about her personal problems and work-related problems (saying how she believes she's being replaced, soon to be fired, pushing her to quit, etc.). This woman
blamed me for stealing the from the register. Then this piece of trash (sorry for the lousy description) proceeded to prance around the store stating to customers and other employees, "You better put that back before YOU get caught stealing!"
What... the hell?
I felt so puny after the events, screwing up and panicking while preparing coffee drinks. I tried to help myself by repeating, "Be a Vulcan," but it didn't work for but a few moments.
If I even stole the odd amount of $83, then why did I sit in my car during lunch starving?
And why would I even do something like that? I've never had a history of stealing from ANY work establishment, nor in any day of my life. Why would I want a criminal-like record if I have goals I wish to achieve-- I'm in college for God's sake. And why would I have stolen from a register on my first day? And what the fuck would I be doing with $86? Getting my nails done? I think not.
I'm extremely bothered and disappointed in the store's employee choice.
I want to quit and run away so badly.
Was it a sign when my neighbor, Dana, brought over a business card and asked me to apply to her company today?
