Just remembered a bit of a tosser I worked under when I was 16.
Lazy eye and an attitude problem. I don't think he liked me.
Being unassertive I didn't ask for time off when I had a pilonidal cyst (I've spoken about this before, and got sympathy! woot!) as yet undiagnosed by still hurting like a skinned kitten in salt.
"I might not be able to walk up and down the isles very quick today... I have a cyst."
"Oh I'm so sorry(!) Do you think you can manage your shift(!)" he quoths.
Harsh, eh? But remember I was but a wee mid-teen without much backchat on my side.
Git.
He searched my bag once, as was company policy, after a shift. I wouldn't mind but doing Stock Management (checking sell by dates and wasting) I could have had shit loads of stuff out of the place. All I ever had was one going-stale cookie in 6 months and I felt really bad about it.
As he's checking my bags and looking suspicious about a half empty can of aerosol ( "Why have you got this?"... why the fuck do you think Mr Management College?) a mate walks past the office with a bag full of donuts. Bastard.
I was the hardest worker in section, got fuck all recognition for it. They even screwed me on pay - the younger shelf stackers were getting more than me.
