SwimModSponges Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 The guy who closed the night before forgot to make a schedule for the day and messed up on the end of day reports, so i had to get that fixed up first thing. Had a call in but luckily had someone else who was able to open, then one of the other people was a no-call no show, couldnt reach her at the number she provided. She ended up coming in and working a closing, she just got her schedule mixed up. My boss calls and says he's going to be coming in at 2 instead of 8 because of his dentist appointment. Then at 10, (while i was leading the morning meeting) they call me up front and tell me theres somebody there for an interview that nobody told me avout. Ive sat in on one interview; two if you include my own. Never conducted my own before, to the best of my knowledge i wasnt even technically allowed to do that yet. But somebody had to, so there we go. Juggled all that shit while running the front and back as well as training the new guy. Boss gets in, give him a status report for the day, and say "hey uh... how much do you need me to be in tomorrow? Because ive still got 28 hours of PTO to ise before the end of the year and after the day ive had i could really use a mental health day." So he checks the schedule and he's like "yeah ill go ahead and put you in for it," and im like "fuck yeah," because i already asked off for the upcoming week so now ive got an 8 day vacation. /blogpost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwimModSponges Posted November 10, 2017 Author Share Posted November 10, 2017 white privilege Hey now, the guy im training is in the exact same position as me and he's black.

SwimModSponges Posted November 10, 2017 Author Share Posted November 10, 2017 North central wisconsin, and he's in his late 20s. He's tried to tell me N'er jokes before but i can usually shut him down before he gets to the punchline, usually. Again, hes a product of the environment: thinks everyone he knows is a republican because in his mind a democrat is a monster who lives in the big city.

Who actually calls a black person colored and is a millennial? I have seriously never heard that from anyone under 60... usually old people and they usually think they are just being polite cause they have no idea about black people... That guy is definitely a racist asshole from the sounds of it. I'm just surprised he's that young and not southern.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwimModSponges Posted November 10, 2017 Author Share Posted November 10, 2017 What the actual fuck? Who actually calls a black person colored and is a millennial? Perhaps not the majority of people in rural areas across the united states, but probably between a third to a half. Its racist, yes, but its the environment. He's a nice guy, hes just only ever really seen black people in sports and on the news for robbing liquor stores in the big city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, you aren't living near a city then I take it. If that is the case it is somewhat more believable. Midwest can be almost as bad as the south when it comes to ignorant prejudiced people, especially states like Arkansas, fuck that state. I am still surprised he used the word Colored and didn't just go straight to the N-word, if that is how he really feels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whites tend to get mugshots a lot here as well, especially meth heads. I'd prefer they didn't put people's mugshots on the news at all, it's a terrible practice in general and none of anyone's damn business except whoever they violated and the authorities. Also taints potential jury pools like crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
