Workplace Nemesis

We all have them.....

The person who shoots down your every idea. The person who points out your errors in an email and copies the entire management staff. The person who makes it their goal to make your work day the most miserable work day you could possibly have.

My workplace nemesis is one of my managers.

In the morning meeting, yesterday, the store manager was about to praise me for a superior customer service moment last weekend, but before she could actually say anything, my nemesis stepped in.

SM: Before we get started, I wanted to recognize one of you for something that happened last weekend. I got a text from [coworker] that I felt deserved some recognition. It was about our own little [lonely_girl1974.]

WN: Yeah, we all hate you.

LG: Excuse me?

WN: We all hate you. (giggling from workplace nemesis)

LG: That's not very nice.... (I couldn't believe my ears.)

The store manager stood there for a moment, then continued on with what she was about to say. I tried to pretend it didn't bother me, but how can something like that NOT hurt your feelings to the core?

Everyone who was working at that moment was in that meeting, which meant, several people I consider friends and coworkers, witnessed my embarrassment

I know it's just the workplace nemesis who hates me, and not my coworkers. But, come on.... I deserve some fucking credit once in a while too. I work my ass off around that place.

Lazy Assed Coworker

I can really get behind my hatred for the lazy fat ass. I actually fully believe that she may be the messy pooper as well!

The company I work for has an elevator. I don't use it very often because I value my life, but I am forced to use it from time for work related purposes.

Today was one of those days.

I was standing before the elevator, trying to push the damn button, but the door was locked and the button wouldn't work.

What this means is, some fucktard used the elevator previously and didn't bother to slide the accordion door shut when they exited.

Knowing that Lazy Assed Coworker was sitting at my desk using my computer, I called my extension and asked her to close the elevator door. Several minutes later, she calls down and says the door is closed.

Knowing full well that it couldn't be, I called back and asked her to check the accordion door because it won't let me in. Without a moments hesitation she tells me the door is locked and she can't check the accordion door.

LIE!!!!

My first thought is that the elevator is broken, so I alert the powers that be. Together, we go to the elevator to check it out because it was JUST inspected.

Bet you can't guess what we found.....

The elevator door opened just fine and the accordion door was wide open.

Lazy Assed Coworker fucking lied about checking the elevator door.

Like I'm NOT going to figure this out?!?

All I can say is, Karma is a bitch. The next time the Xerox jams on your fricking signs, you're on your own.

I'll be riding up and down in the elevator.

It was a dark and stormy night.

Well, not really. Got your attention though, didn't I.

It's snow-stormy.... Does that count?

It's definitely a good night to stay in, drink some wine, and just relax, though. What more could a woman ask for on a blustery winter's evening? The are at the ex's house for the night, I'm in my jammies, I've got the candles lit, and a glass of wine resting in my palm.

It would be nice if the boyfriend were here, relaxing next to me.....

I sometimes wonder what it would be like if he were here, all the time.

Say it with... Deli meat?

Is it common place for the people who are slicing the deli meats and cheeses in the big box stores to hand out slices for your to eat?

I think this guy was hitting on me.

When I thanked him he told me he was "feeling generous today."

He waited on me once before, also an odd experience. I had ordered a pound of hard salami, which is my norm, and he proceeded to tell me in great detail about his mutual 'love' of hard salami.

I'm pretty certain he mentioned a wife though....

I feel kind of bad, I only half listened to what he was saying and blew him off because I felt like he was hitting on me then, too.

It isn't that I dislike this guy, I really don't know him from Adam.

I'm just one of those women.....

I'm not overly attractive, or remarkable really, but I seem to draw the attention of the opposite sex. Maybe it's my personality.... I'm not really sure.

Whatever it is, I end up putting on the icy exterior and unfriendly battle armor for protection.

Can I quit my job and still collect a paycheck?

I wish the world worked that way....

The bathrooms where I work are horrible. I don't know what it is about that place, but people seem to think it's acceptable to shit all over a bathroom stall and just leave it for the next person.

NOT acceptable, folks.

Up until today I had firmly believed it was the horrible customers we somehow manage to attract.

I couldn't have been more wrong.

The bathrooms had been cleaned this morning because several of the stalls still had the toilet bowl cleaner in them yet. It was 2 hours before we were scheduled to open and I was just arriving at work.

Because I know you can see through the cracks in the bathroom stalls as you walk by, I always use the last stall for ultimate privacy. Random strangers don't need to see my naked nether regions....

You can imagine my horror as I stepped into the last stall and found a shit smeared toilet seat with a toilet full of crap.

Seriously??

Who on earth DOES something like this?

I actually felt ill after seeing that with my own eyes. The worst part was knowing it was one of my fellow coworkers who had committed this atrocity.

Sick, fucking pig.

Resolutions anyone?

While I don't normally get all cliché, I have decided to make a few resolutions this year.

This year I'm going to be a better person. I'm going to make wise choices, and I'm going to make the best of every situation.

What are your resolutions for the new year?

A fricking day off!

Working retail on the holidays is like willingly signing up for your own execution.

Firing squad? Sounds Great!

Death by electrocution? Sign me up!

Long lines of crabby customers who charged their lives away in the hopes of showing up their family with the extravagant Christmas presents they bestowed upon them.... Bingo!!

If there is one thing that could possibly exceed the horrors of Black Friday, it's the day after Christmas.

Let the returns begin!

"What do you mean I can only get [X amount of dollars] back for this?!? The price tag says $58!"

"I'm sorry Sir, I can only give you back what was actually paid for this item. This total comes FROM your gift receipt."

"Why can't I just get the cash back???"

"I'm sorry Sir, you're doing an unreceipted return for a Christmas gift that may or may not have come from our store. The most I can give you is store credit for the lowest sale price this item has been."

"That's a rip off. I know my wife paid full price for this."

"She may have paid full price, Sir, but without a receipt, I have no evidence that she didn't buy it at the lowest sale price like the rest of our customers do."

"My 90 year old Mother bought me this shirt and it's 3 sizes to big. There is nothing out there I can exchange this with!"

"I'm sorry Sir. You're 90 year old mother bought this shirt on sale for 90% off and I can only give you $2.68 on a store credit."

What I would really like to have said to that one was....

'Sucks to be you. Maybe if you visited your 90 year old mother once in a while she would know your correct shirt size. Or, better yet, help her out financially once in a while so she doesn't have to RESORT to buying her Christmas gifts 90% off because she can't afford to live on her fixed income.'

Anyway...

Hope you all are basking in the glow of the After Christmas Warm Fuzzies, cause I certainly will be today. Nothing but relaxation, Netflix, and naps for me.

All I want for Christmas is....

Some people are gift givers, some people are gift receivers.

You know who you are....

Personally, I fall into the gift giver category. It's the search for the perfect gift that entices you, and the smile on the receiver's face that ultimately gives you the most reward.

"This is EXACTLY what I wanted!"

What if the gift is.... Sexual?

The boyfriend and I have been seeing each other for a while now. I'll be honest, during that time, I've definitely had my ups and downs. I've weathered the death of my mom, a severe depression, and a broken heart.

Like most women, I've found myself withdrawing in a lot of ways, some of them sexual.

I met the boyfriend on this site. He had been a reader of my blog so he wasn't really that much of a stranger to my sexual deviancies.... But we had started seeing each other at a point in my life when I wasn't at my best.

As a result, I had very little trust in anyone, let alone him.

One of the things I held out on was performing oral sex on him.

He begged, he pleaded, he got frustrated with me.... I wasn't giving in. I had absolutely no interest, and until I was ready, it just wasn't happening.

I wanted to know that our friendship, that the relationship we shared, was more than just..... Sexual. I wanted to know that, if the sexual element went away, he would still be there.

God knows, I've had my fair share of experiences with guys who were only in it for the sex.

I needed it to be different this time.

It was Christmas Eve, we were having a fairly intense sex session, changing positions, when he rolled onto his back and I instinctively reached down for his cock and snuggled in.

I was ready.

"You're sticky."

"Yeah, that tends to happen when you're doing what we're doing" He laughed.

"Go wash up a little, so.... We can do stuff."

"What stuff?"

"You know.... Stuff."

He was a little hesitant at first, but he dutifully got up, went into the bathroom, and washed up.

He was soft when he got back, which I knew he would be, so I snuggled back in and reached down to caress his cock again.

I very rarely do this with him. Another one of the things I hold out on.

He grew hard in my hand as I gently stroked him and waited for his cock to pulse a little.

"Stand up for me." I patted his chest twice, waiting for him to stand. He knelt, but I wanted him to stand. "I need you to stand for this."

He stood, probably not knowing what to expect, but when I knelt before him, it became clear.

I felt like my old self again, for the first time in quite a while. I wanted his cock in my mouth, I wanted to pleasure him, I wanted the taste of his cum on my tongue.

It wasn't long before I'd managed to do all three.

The boyfriend was nearly speechless, lying next to me on the bed, and I kind of smiled smugly. I knew that I'd brought to life something he had fantasized about, something he had wanted from me for a very long time, and had given up on.

"Merry Christmas."

"Thank you sweetie." He kissed my cheek and I fell asleep in his embrace.

Hope you all are having a great holiday.

For the first time in a while, I actually felt happy for Christmas.

I consider myself lucky...

I don't write about it often, but I am a long sufferer of depression and anxiety, so, for me to look forward to a holiday like this, it's a miracle. For me to actually enjoy the holiday is even more of a miracle.

I laughed, I yelled at my , I watched 'A Christmas Story', I ate until I wanted to die, and I even got a nap in....

In all respects, an excellent Christmas.

I hope you are all having an excellent Christmas as well.

And, I just don't have enough time in the day.

I went to the boyfriend's house last weekend, I'm pretty sure he invented a new sex position.

He calls it 'The Weather Cock'.

I think the name says it all.

I couldn't help myself and started laughing and could not stop. Tears were literally streaming down my cheeks I was laughing so hard.

Typically not something you aim for amidst the throes of passion......

I was laying on my stomach with my back to him, so I couldn't really see what was happening, but the mental image was hilarious. Before I knew what was happening, his arms were out at his sides, his feet were in the air, and only his pelvis was balancing on my back side.

How he managed to keep his cock inside me is still a mystery to me...

He was laughing just as hard as I was.

After having the most horrible day Saturday, the boyfriend surprised me with a visit Sunday.

He really does have the patience of a saint. I don't know of anyone else who can put up with my moods and insecurities, and still want to treat me like a queen.

I would have tossed me to the curb by now.

I wish life could be more like a movie.

When a scene doesn't go well, the director yells cut, and the whole thing starts over again.

Messed up my line.... Didn't stand on my mark.... Missed my queue..... It doesn't matter.

CUT!!

And.... ACTION!!

I had the single most horrible day yesterday. The server went down at work, causing my day to start harried and complicated. Tis the 'holiday' season, which means, customers are biting and mean, lashing out because they are overspent on Christmas and I can't give them something for nothing.

Me: I'm sorry Ma'am. You used a $10 coupon on that purchase. I can only refund you the amount you actually paid.

Asshole Customer: Then give me the coupon back. If you aren't going to give me back the whole amount, I should get the coupon back.

Me: I'm sorry Ma'am, I don't have your coupon. I have no equivalent coupon that I can give you.

Asshole Customer: So, what you're saying is, you're RIPPING ME OFF for the $10. You OWE me the $10 or I want a coupon.

Me: [ready to fucking punch the bitch right in the nose] Let me page a manager for you.


For some ridiculous reason, I decided to take my shopping at the mall after work. Thought I would sneak in a little Christmas shopping, maybe have a fun time.

Couldn't have been more misguided.

I literally bought 3 car chargers before I found one that would work in my car. One was purchased at a gas station, so I pretty much kissed that $15 goodbye. Another one I was able to return to the store I purchased it at, so aside from the hassle, I broke even. The third one finally worked, thank the lord, because I had thrown my arms up in the air and given up.

My was pouty and whining the whole time because there was no longer a Build-a-Bear workshop in the mall. My was sullen and angry because I wouldn't just spend my whole paycheck on a PS3 and a few games. ($60 a game?!?) I was frustrated because, not only were my acting like selfish, spoiled rotten brats, the mall was TEEMING with people.

Rude, pushy, obnoxious assholes who have spent more than they could afford and were taking it out on anyone within their range.

By about 5 o'clock last night, I was yelling CUT!!

10 Things I Did today

1. Woke up at 4:45 am. Didn't have to get up until 6am.

2. Stepped on a walnut. Where in the heck did the walnut come from?

3. Touched my eye with the mascara wand while I was applying mascara. Ouch!

4. Slipped on an icy patch in the parking lot at work. We can add twisted ankle to the list of gripes for the day right beneath watering eye.

5. Bitched under my breath as I cleaned my desk off for the 9 millionth time. Of the 5 desks in the various offices upstairs, my desk is the only one anyone EVER uses.

6. Received a call from a former employee asking what his schedule is. He quit showing up for work 3 weeks ago.

7. Fixed a paper jam in the printer. I was supposed to go home 5 minutes ago.

8. Watched as a Suburban parked way to close to my car in the parking lot at my daughters school. Have fun getting out of your vehicle asshole.

9. Found a note on the door to my apartment telling me to get rid of the rotting pumpkins on my balcony. I don't have any fucking pumpkins on my balcony.

10. Put on my pajamas, ate a shit ton of pizza, and collapsed into my couch. It's been a long day.....
