*Alls well that ends well.*

June 04, 2005 ~ 4:53 a.m.

A few things.

2 hours before I walk out on this job. It's a cherry job, but staff sucks.

June 1st. My manager (who was just chewed out over a HUGE debacle of not taking driver's license, not following procedure, etc) doesn't do a bucket check.

A bucket check is a mechanism that we can use to double and triple check our guests. We have a computer copy, a handwritten copy, and a rolodex system that has people's names, room numbers, how much they're paying for the rooms and what they're paying with. A bucket check makes sure that this is in order and everything is OK.

My manager didn't do this. It takes, honestly 5 minutes to do, less than that if you cheat. She didn't do it at all - things like this are supposed to be logged in our pass along book, so I did, writing "Wanda, your bucket sucked."

Fast forward to tonight - while I was doing my night auditing papers, I found a disciplinary report addressed to me - pretty much just trying to one-up me.

Said that I didn't check in somebody right, the phones weren't checked and that I wrote foul language in the book (apparently "sucked" isn't a word that they like to use around here).

I am quitting at 7am this morning. Not going to come in. I tried to ask off or to change shifts on Monday (I work 12 hours on Sunday, 18 on Monday which is all in a row), and she denied it, saying there's no one left.

She also told pretty much all of us that she made more than we did so she didn't have to do as much work, or work 40+ hours a week. We'll see about that.

I just believe there's an age/personality difference. Everyone here has at least 20 years on me, perhaps more. Someone asked if they could have a newspaper, and I said "go for it-" and I got warned because of that. I mean, c'mon. I don't swear in front of the ladies (I did once, one of my co-workers probably ratted on me), I'm very professional with guests and yada yada. I just had a damn comment card from a guest saying that I was one of our most valued employees.

I quit.

It's not that I don't wanna do my job - this job is easy, it's just hard dealing with things, and the learning curve is monumental. I mean, I've been here for a little over a month and I still have a lot of questions. I'm not even 100% trained, and I'm being written up?!

My trainer told me that this would come and not to worry about it - but I believe I wasn't disciplined correctly and she's abusing her power. I don't believe she got written up for the fiasco we had last weekend.

Kelly management finally called me back, I have an interview with them on Tuesday at 3:30. What's the deal? I applied here and 6 months passed and they called me. Hmmm.

Anyway, I'm stoked. I think it's $8.50/hour base, and comission. I will be paid more if I can pass a Spanish fluency test...I'm rusty so we'll see.

Sabrina is still the most beautiful thing to me :P

Charlie sold me his PSP - it rocks, I love it to death, the PSP and I will never be seperated!

Trying to play some more Call of Duty - it's really my only vice, and everyone needs at least one. I played tonight, picked up a rifle and didn't miss a damn shot. God, I'm a nerd.

My super-gold membership expires in 7 or so days, and I believe this will be the last time I update it. I might write one huge reflective entry before I go into the sunset, but we'll see.

So, back to 1 job, beautiful girlfriend, back to playing too many video games and... back to normal. Maybe I'll have time to scratch my ass.
