Yesterday wasn't that bad, but there were just some grumpy-ass people.
This woman comes up to Guest Service asking where the nearest place that sells fireworks is. Well, they aren't in the city, so I give her a general direction as I don't know exactly what road it is on. She got pissed at me! She just said she'll go to a different one that is further away. Sorry! I'm not your fucking travel guide!
Then, Laura at the photo lab was going to go on her lunch so I was going to watch from Guest Service. The minute she walked away, the stupid Kodak picture makers printers ran out of ribbon. Well, it takes about 5 minutes to change both of them, so I was doing that. Then a billion people came up to GS and the photo lab, so I went over to GS to push the back-up button so more people would come up. Well, one bitch in line yelled, "Where the hell is he going?" I turned around and gave her the dirtiest look ever. What the fuck people!? Either you wait 20 minutes until I can help everyone, or shut the fuck up and let me call someone to help out. Christ!
Then there was this woman who wanted to return something with a receipt that expired in August 2005! Yeah, almost a year ago. And this lady was completely shocked that I couldn't do anything for her. 90 days, not 900.
Which brings me to today. Holy fucking shit! It was busier than a Saturday! I have no fucking idea why either. Well, I do. People that are hopefully leaving for the weekend came in today, and the Canadians are getting into town for their fucking long weekend. What country gives everyone the first Monday of every month off? Oh yeah, retard Canada. It wouldn't be so bad if they stayed in their own fucking country, but no they have to come here and mess EVERYTHING up. Fuck them!
Tomorrow will probably be worse because it is a Saturday, and I close Guest Service. I am really hoping the Canadians leave on Monday and don't ruin the 4th on Tuesday. MY HOLIDAY!
And what better place to spend Canada Day then the United States. Uh, shouldn't you stay home and celebrate? And what the fuck is Canada Day for anyway? Is it to celebrate how fucking dumb they are? Hell I'll drink to that!

Heading Back In
Well, I just had a week off to celebrate my birthday, and to get away from Target. Well today I head back into work. I am so not looking forward to it.
I was bitching up a storm before I left because I was getting screwed out of my Guest Service hours. Then, all of a sudden they give me nothing but Guest Service hours, so that's what you get when you bitch, everything you want. I'm super excited to get treated like shit again.
Now that I'm back in Guest Service, I'm sure there will be PLENTY of stories.

Still Here
Well, things WERE going semi-well since my last post, but it has just exploded into more shit.
The most recent story I have heard is that a Canadian ordered popcorn from our dear Food Ave. The Canadian tasted it and THREW IT AT THE EMPLOYEE claiming it wasn't fresh. Ok, there wasn't a better way to say you didn't like it? You had to throw it!? If I had been working, I would have went around the counter, shoved a broom up theit ass, and make them sweep it up. Who the fuck in their right mind throws shit at people? Oh that's right, Canadians.
Then there was this woman who had a question at Guest Service. She said she had called a general Target number and they told her that she could fill her prescription at any Target store that had a pharmacy. Ok, Target's in our state cannot have pharmacies because of a state law that says they have to be locally owned, so our store doesn't have one. She asks what she should do. Umm, I don't fucking know, I can't pull a pharmacy out of my ass! So I tell her that maybe she can try going to another pharmacy, and she yells, "NO! My prescription is through Target!" I told her I didn't know what to tell her, and she said, "I NEED my medicine, I guess I'll just go have a stroke then!" And left. Even other guests were saying they thought she was a bitch.
So, I have been over in the photo lab for some of my shifts, and sometimes it's dead, and other times it is really fucking busy. Well, one Saturday morning I was by myself until 1pm. It was supposed to be really dead on Saturday. Well, it was up until 10 or so. Then all hell broke loose. One of the Kodak Picture Makers ran out of the ribbon, and I had no idea how to change it, so I was attempting to do that. Then people kept dropping off one hour film so I was trying to keep up with that. I eventually found what I needed to replace the ribbon, then the paper runs out in the printer. That you have to do right away so it doesn't slow everything down. So I did that. Then I replaced the ribbon in the KPM. I thought I was caught up until the CD readers on the KPMs didn't read CDs. I don't know how the hell to fix them, so she said she would come back. I didn't have time because there were people picking up and dropping off film. Then the other printer roll ran out so I had to do that. Then the other KPM printer ran out of the ribbon so I had to do that too. The woman came back and I told her I didn't get a chance, but she could try sending them over yahoo to our store to print. It was a mess of a day.
So recently, I have only been scheduled 4:30-close on Wednesday nights in Guest Service. They are pretty much using me to do that shift because I'm the only one available. That pisses me off because it's the ONLY SHIFT I GET up there. I am the best person over there, and have been told that by many people. And yet, they schedule the newbies over there when I'm cashiering the same day. Oh, it pisses me off. So I get sick of it and go talk to Sharon. I ask fo rmore hours over there and they are trying to spread the hours out over there so that everyone has a chance to be up there. Ok, that would be an acceptable answer if they actually spread around the hours, which they don't. So I do some investigative reporting and Amanda has 5 shifts that week, and they ARE ALL GUEST SERVICE! What the fuck!? And the week after that she has 5 shifts and 4 of them are Guest Service. When I saw that, I almost exploded with anger. Don't fucking tell me you are spreading around the hours when you clearly aren't. That next week I only have 2 shifts and both of them are photo lab. Then again I did take the other 5 days off. It's a vacation from their bullshit. When I get back I better have a shitload of Guest Service or else I will have a shitfit.
That's all I really have to say. I only have 4 shifts these next 2 weeks so I'm excited to get away from all the drama and bullshit that is Target.
