Well, I goofed slightly in scheduling my hours at my tutoring center where I'm only supposed to have a certain number of hours per week. Getting right to the point, however, I drew, haha, two overtime hours more than I was supposed to have. I discovered this snafoo days ago, so technically this was to a certain degree my fault. But, the person I needed to tell about this was busy, not in, hell just not there. A short history about my relationship with the tutoring center. At first they were elated to see me and I was elated to have a daytime job after being laid off from Channel 4. But, I'm used to a set schedule and a competent time keeping computer system, that is to say one that is seen by all relevant bosses. If you're gonna call yourself that. But, an incident occurred last semester whereby I learned that hours are rounded off at the nearest 15's and I had to go back and do alot of hours because there are 2 computer systems: one for your official schedule (the one I thought everyone saw) and the one that actually logs the hours you work, THE SPY COMPUTER as I call it.
Well, it didn't take long for me to get into trouble with the spy computer tallying up more hours than I'm contracted to work (hmmmm, nobody told me this shit!). So, of course with "no worries" being the montra, I had to go back and change/modify, count em, about 15 different log times to get rid of the off times that I had accrued, even though I technically worked those extra hours.
Whew, well what does that have to do with today? After last semester's horendous experience I decided to check my scheduled hours and sure enough I'd planned two overtime hours. I reported this last night thinking little of it. It was just two of the four hours I had to work on a Saturday and the other tutors would be there, right? RIGHT?? Did I say anything about not showing up for work at all??? Am I quitting??? Do I give the impression that I'm BACKING OUT!??!! Well, this is the response I got from my text the next morning? I have it in writing, verbatum!!!! I'm not the kind of guy who quits for nothing. I've been working for 16-20 hours straight in some capacity for the past ten years (between Channel 4 overnight and Lifeguarding during the day in my previous 2 jobs) and I have the emergency room bills and high blood pressure medication to prove it!!! Isn't it suspicious that just when I bought a new car with a lower car note that I was laid off from Channel 4 and assaulted at the swimming pool, smell like a conspiracy??? Well, that's a story for another time ... the reason why I had to go searching for 2 more jobs. (Which may happen very soon again.)
I have another question: If there is an emergency situation then why leave one person in charge of two labs? Why did everyone else go just when the 'emergency' took place and just when I had to report to my second job as a security guard? I certainly face some funny shit in my life ... and, I'm going to post every last one of them from here on out as they occur. Have fun, and do like Cameo said: BE YOURSELF! ALL IS FORGIVEN, BY THE WAY!!!! MAY THE HOLY SPIRIT BE WITH YOU ALL!!! I JUST CANNOT HOLD THIS ALL IN, LIKE BETWEEN A CHILD AND A PEDOPHILE!!! THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN TO ME AGAIN!!!! Amen.
