  • Good song. It's definitely me, aha. Man, I really love my work. There's one thing I haven't mentioned about it though that really detracts from it, because tonight's been the worst it's affected me. One of the managers - who I initially thought was really nice - is an absolute dickhead. I don't mean like he's just not fun or he's a little grumpy or anything, but he's really verbally abusive, especially towards me. I get told that I'm "useless", a "slut" and that I'm "fucking retarded" (though he did apologise for that one tonight) on a regular basis. I'm normally pretty good with stuff like this but tonight it got to me. He does say that he's only joking, but that really doesn't excuse it. It's pretty deflating to be singled out. I guess the main reason it especially got to me tonight was that I was volunteering to do his work for him, because when I got to the shop he was asleep and obviously not feeling so great - hungover I believe. He didn't show any appreciation for it. I have my own work to do, I could just be doing what I normally do, but I stepped up and did a managers' job as he just sat back and relaxed. A simple "thank you" or "good job" would be nice. Of course not. I get told I'm useless if I have to ask a question. If I don't know about something, it's my problem because I'm stupid or unable - not anyone elses' because they never told me, all my fault. Like I said earlier, when I initially started there, he just seemed like a bit of a character, throwing what seemed like playful insults around. He was in a good mood that night I'm guessing. When he's happy it's not so bad. It's when he actually believes what he's saying that it's not fair, and that's seemingly quite frequently. I think next time he says or does something insulting towards me I'll say something. I'm planning mini speeches in my mind directed at him in response to one of his remarks. If it happens twice or more in the one night, I'm going to respond to him - not aggressively or in an angry way, but politely and nicely, because I really don't want to get fired. As I said: I really love my work.
