I feel like I'm on a roller coaster and the asshole that is running it won't give me a break. Yup that's right I'm referring to life itself. As long or as short as mine my end up, I would prefer it to slow down for a little while. I'm recently engaged to an awesome man, and I have a beautiful son. One would think that I should be happy.
I'm not.
No, no, no, everything is great with Jayk and Logan. They are about the only two things I'm happy about these days, making me wish I could just lock the three of us in our house for a week or more and just hang out and be our happy silly selves.
I know I have said it before and time and time again, but I seriously hate my job. No scratch that. I like my actual job; I hate all of the bull shit that accompanies it. Last time I checked I am 26 fricking years old. Not 5, not 9, not 12, no I am 26 years old. Our supervisors use charts my first grade teachers use to put smiley faces and give us "GOOD JOB!" certificates with fucking cartoon characters on them when we perform a trick/ do a good job for the day.
I am dead serious. A multi-billion dollar company and this is the best management they can come up with? Seriously, what the fuck! I wouldn't even go as far to say I had a bad day. The customers were just regular customers, but the management in my department is partially retarded. We are herded and micromanaged. They think our wages and benefits are enough to take away humane treatment.
I can not go to Jayk's desk if there is an urgent matter I need to talk to him about. I have to clear it with my supervisor or his supervisor and explain why I need to talk to him right then. That's right, because we are fucking engaged and it is my supervisor's right to know every god damned thing about me and my business. However, if I was at home and called him because I needed to speak to him, we would not get bitched at. I could see it if I was at his desk or vice versa all day everyday, but I have work to do and so does he. We have faced many discriminatory problems since we started dating, none of which abide by the company’s code of business conduct.
I had to talk to him for 30 god damned seconds about a phone call I received from the school for Logan, and I got hate mail from his stupid cunt supervisor that I was not to be at his desk during work hours. You would think we were making out at his desk!
This is just one small stupid example of why my company can bend over and kiss my ass! We are MICRO-managed TO DEATH. We are not to take a personal without clearing it with our supervisors (so I gotta tell them I'm taking a piss if it's not a scheduled break). There is so much more. I don't care. I have officially had it. I may get paid OK, but I promise the pay is not worth the aggravation. And if I perform tricks/ do my job to their standards I get a balloon at my desk. What the flying fuck?!
So the new job search has officially begun. I will continue to perform their stupid childish tricks and play their fucking game until I find my new job that will pay the bills. Then peace out, I'm gone. Everyone cross their fingers I find something before I have a mental breakdown and have to go on Prozac and get stuck there forever. I just want to be happy and go to a job that I can be treated like an adult at.

Good luck, babe! If you're not happy at your job, that can spill out so badly into the rest of your life :-(
You could always become a stripper!
Kyra, thanks. LOL! I definitely do not have the body for a stripper, and my brothers let alone Jayk would never let that happen.
Sad thing is it isn't just spilling it's overpouring. Thanfully my man is very patient and understanding because he works there too.
Good luck with the job search. Hope you find something quick so you can yell at them "In your face suckers!" before you take off. A job should not only pay the bills but be something you enjoy going to. You're spending the biggest part of your day at work so it better be something you like.
Most companies I have worked at actually have a policy that forbids relationships within the same department.
I think that you are doing the right thing by looking for another job, "they" are not going to change and you will not win the battle.
So hang in there and try to play along nicely until you find something else.
Can't you email him?
All call centers seem to be like this-I don't know why, because they can track every little second and every little word you say, but that's not enough for them.
When I worked at Disney I had to ask to go to the bathroom! The bathroom!!! That's freakin' crazy.
Good luck with your search...
Rocket: Nope, they track those and no personal emails allowed. Also, we are not supposed to have our phones out on our desks so we can't even text. It's complete bullshit.
I know a lot of companies forbid it, but ours does not. We have married couples working in the same department. The sup I've been referencing in this blog is a girl that started with me and kissed the right ass and she knows I know it. She hates it.
I have every intention of playing nice until I find something, no worries ;-).
