Day 6

What a horrible day. Everything was going wrong and then some. This will be a long post.

For starters, I pulled into a "close" spot in the parking lot. I don't think it was that close, as I've parked closer. Well, Shelley (the domestics TL) was walking in, and she saw me, and decided to take matters into her own hands. She walked next to my driver-side door, and I was still in the car. She stood in front of my door so I couldn't open it all the way. She told me to go re-park because the close spots were for guests. I told her I didn't care, but she kept screeching that I re-park. She said, "Seriously, move your car. This is supposed to be guest parking." Again I told her that I wasn't moving my car, and I told her to get out of my way. She then asked, "Don't your legs work?" I told her they do, and managed to slip past her. Then, I went inside and punched in. What a fucking psycho! The thing is that we both weren't punched in. Shit, if Target isn't paying me, I'll park wherever I damn well please. I'd gladly punch it, and go re-park if that is what they want. But for Shelley to be the Target parking police is very unprofessional. Why don't you worry about yourself? I'm not hurting anyone by parking closer so fuck off! If she really wanted to do something about it, she could have went to my supervisor, although that would have been pathetic. They can't make me do anything while I'm off the clock, so I will park wherever I fucking want to. This only was the beginning of my bad day.

Sharon left at 4:30, as you all know, but it was really fucking busy. Who in their right mind schedules 1 person on a Canadian holiday? I definitely needed at least 1 other person there. I have never pushed back-up more in one shift than I did yesterday. Most people were decent, except for this Canadian couple...

Well, they had things that didn't ring up correctly, and so I returned them, and rebought them on the same transaction. Well the difference was $9.61 or something similar. Because they used coupons, the system was suggesting $4 back in cash, and $5.61 back on their card. They started bitching that they wanted the amount all back on the card, and I told them this wasn't possible. Somehow the Canadian retard woman thought that if she went and got the coupons, and brought them up to guest service that I would be able to give the amount back onto her card. I told her it doesn't work that way, but away she went. She came back with her coupons, and I told her again, her having the coupons didn't matter. So, she wanted to return everything on her receipt (or "bill" as the retards say) and rebuy it back with the correct prices. Thinking about it now, I should have called back and checked the prices because they were Canadian. Well, I had Krista do a Fix It Fast, and changed the prices that way. The lady bitched, "Get the coupons!" I yelled back that I already did, and had her sign the box again. Well, after that she said she told me she wanted to pay cash for the transaction. She NEVER mentioned that while I was helping her. I told her she never told me that, and she said, "I told you I wanted to pay cash for these, so you're going to have to void that one too." I told her she never told me anything about paying cash. Then she had to argue about the different total. She was bitching that I didn't adjust the prices, and I told her the difference was from her old total to the new total. She finally decided to leave it on the card, and left. GO FUCKING HOME YOU STUPID FUCKING CANADIANS!!! They think they are hot shit just because they are from Canada. That's not something to be proud of. Especially when you act like self-centered brats. Go Fuck Yourself Canada!

Karen was being a bitch yet again today. Sharon got 4 cards from being in Guest Service, and Karen got one, and Krista got one. Well, they were rubbing it in my face. I told them I never got anything for the cards I got Thurs-Fri-Sat, and Karen told me "We weren't doing anything, sorry" in the bitchiest tone ever. God I fucking hate her!

Then, apparently I got a complaint from a guest because of my attitude. What the fuck ever. The guest didn't say who it was, but said they returned a pair of shorts. So Krista came over and asked me if I returned a pair of shorts. I told her that I've returned a lot of things today, and don't remember everything. I told her it was probably me because I was going as quick as possible because I had to sort 2 full carts, call departments, had 2 baskets of defectives, and had registry returns all over the floor, and helping all the guests. I would have had less of an attitude if I had someone working with me. So, that also made me more mad. I think it's pathetic to complain about someone's attitude unless it's really bad. I said Hi and Have a nice day to EVERY SINGLE guest, and I know that for sure. The only thing I could think of that I did that could be interpreted as rude is when I pushed some diapers on the floor, to make room for their returns. Whatever, I don't care anymore.

My lunch and last break were 30 minutes late also. It was an all around bad day. I didn't have to do defectives because Rob came and did them.

Before Sharon left, she said there couldn't be anything in the carts at the end of the night. I asked her, "So I have to stay up here and babysit the carts?" If people put shit at Guest Service, I have to put it away? No fucking way! So Krista told the salesfloor to bring up all their defectives at 9:30, and anything after that they had to put away themselves.

We were there until 11:15, and I had to zone the lanes. I didn't want to help the floor, so I took as long as possible. It sucked, and I hope to God I never have to work 6 days in a row again.
