Managers...you suck...(a post to put me to sleep)

(Just a warning: I'm in a mood. And when I'm in a mood, all sense of grammar, punctuation, style, and rhythm fly right out the window. Also, I refer to myself in 3rd person. If that bothers you, I really don't give a fuck -- I'm in a mood. So take this handy link right out of my blog, thank you.)

Here's Brandon's biggest pet peeve in the blue-collar working world:

Scheduling.

Contrary to popular belief, Brandon loves working. He doesn't like picking at managers and causing conflict in the workplace.

Really, he doesn't.

Brandon also doesn't mind full-time. In fact, he is usually in the position where he needs to work full-time. He realizes that (oftentimes this leads to him working several hours over the legal limit). But what Brandon just doesn't understand is why it's such a problem for managers to learn how to work a schedule. Really, it's not hard. If you need him to work, put him on the schedule. If you don't need him to work, don't put him the schedule.

If you want to piss him off, put him on the schedule and have him think he's working at a certain time for an entire week, and then take him off the schedule at the last possible moment...like when he's about to walk out the door and into the rain.

That'll piss him off real good.

Brandon can't get too mad at this place, though. It's a first time offense and the excuse was semi-good enough. But what seems to be a prevailing problem amongst the various managing bodies at the various places of business across the greater Philadelphia area seems to be easily solved:

MAKE A PROPER SCHEDULE AND DON'T FORGET IT!

Thank you.

I swear, sometimes it seems that, behind every inept employee, there's a manager that's twice as inept and half as likely to accept accountability. But that's a topic for another time.

Now, I'm off to bed. Let's see if tomorrow can't be just a bit better.
