Blargh! A Blog!

Hello, everyone. Leon here in the first night of my two-night weekend. Needed some sleep and while I just woke up from a 30 minute nap, I feel refreshed enough for one of my all-nighters so let's go!

Actually, I don't have much to say right now. Work-related stress and whatnot, but it's heavy tonight. Recently they have had someone keep an eye on us stockers and so far it's obvious she doesn't like me. It's understandable how they want us to stock our merchandise in a fast yet steady pace, and I got my own way of handling things. Anyone been to Walmart after 10 PM? They have pallets of boxes out on the floor, and it's our job to get rid of them by 7 AM. And one example of how this new person irritated me is how she wanted me to take care of the bigger boxes on the VERY BOTTOM of my pallet. I have no problem following orders but her reason was to make it look like I made a dent on it. Honestly, I don't see why I should take away the boxes on top to reach the bottom ones while I could just get rid of the top ones first. Really doesn't make a difference since I have a time limit and can't afford to waste time.

Last night, they had me in three different areas (two in which I'm not used to doing) with other people. At the end of the night, guess what? She said that later we're gonna sit down and talk about my productivity. Are you serious? I was dealing with one of the main departments I work in, and a lot of those things are heavy. Forgive me for not stocking anything while you were around breathing down my neck, but I did do my job. There are other things I would mention but I just want to leave it at this. My job's management doesn't communicate very well. And I've decided weeks ago to start looking for another job. But where? I only have one job and I work full-time, which is hard to find. I have my family to take care of but I just can't stand that place anymore. I can't rely on it forever.

That does it for my rant, though. I haven't been able to sleep much with this on my mind. Knowing them, they won't accept any excuses from me if this person brings it up to upper management. I'm just glad I can relax here whenever I can. Have a blessed night, everyone.
