So I went in and 2 of the team leads were working on their day off. They were also quarreling. It made work very, very, uncomfortable. But they're under a tremendous amount of pressure. I did what I could to do my job.
And I think I did it pretty well. I can't say more due to pest issues and not wanting to reveal my job.
At one point the Team Leads' boss came by and shouted at them in front of me which I found profoundly unprofessional. You can say a lot about Ron, but he was a great boss. He would have a private meeting with his employees once a week where they could bring up issues with him and he could give them gentle corrections if needed. One time he had to talk to an employee who was wearing crop tops and tight leggings and had a muffin top. The customers complained the sight of her belly made them sick. He actually took her off privately in the cafeteria, had a talk with her, had her laughing about it, and gave her $50 to buy some new clothes. And guess what, problem solved.
My store doesn't do it like that. Yell at the associate in front of their co workers, the customers... it's one of the few things I don't like about my job.
I had Buddy on the way home. He told me later he thought I didn't want to talk, but he did talk to me at the end of the ride. I texted him a photo of the bread early this month and he didn't answer me back. I took a chance and texted him a great photo I have of all 3 cats. He did text me back this time. I am not in a rush.
Bad news weather says rain this weekend so likely no Handout. But we desperately need the rain so I can't complain.
I remembered to bring home my Aleve gel caps (generic version) and had a much better night of sleep as a result.
