Rough day... sorry
9 years ago
Ummm, just today, WOW fuck today. As a few of you know i work at Culver's, if you have never been to one its kind of like i guess steak and shake but slightly higher quality food plus custard. I've been working here since january 2015 and i have had my ups and down with the establishment. Today was not my cup of coffee. I worked a 12-11 shift, so it was already a long day. i was set up on custard making but swapped to drive a few min later so my co-worker could do custard. I got yelled at by so many mean customers today.
There is a Denny's going up next door and they were grinding off all the mortar stuck on the outside wall and they had a diesel motor working an old pump, so it was really hard to hear combining it with i am partially deaf in my right ear, which is where the mic is located. I would get rude remarks like if i was reading back an order cuz i was worried i got something wrong i would get "yes, do you even know what a burger is" or if i was listing off the condiments of a burger and i say mayo and they think i said tomato they would throw a temper tantrum at me. Even 1 car after i took their order i asked someone else to take cash for me because i didn't want to deal with them and i heard one say "god they must be desperate for employees hiring that idiot" Needless to say i cashed them out after that and talked to them about how the background noise of diesel gets amplified through our headset and we aren't hiring.
And another co-worker called in so i had to close. so now i'm working a 12-12 shift. wonderful. i go on my last break and i see that i got a text from a friend. So her and i have a friend that moved a few months back and she suffers from chronic depression. back when she lived by us we would always make sure to hang out with her and keep her happy since she had a rough life. I am NOT going to disclose her name for privacy reasons. The text said that she had attempted suicide. I have no clue if she is alive or not, I really hope she is and gets the help she deserves. Her parents thought she was just going through a phase so they would ignore it. She never went to therapy, take anti-depressants, anything. And i cant go see her since she lives out of state now.
Guys, i'm just hoping its better tomorrow. It could of been worse, there's 1 manager that insults me all the time and i have just lost my shit on him so many times for being sexist. You never see him doing anything if a guy is on their phone texting or playing a game, but if i need to text my dad, he takes my phone. It was his day off today. God i just hope he works a morning shift tomorrow. I doubt it and i am prolly gonna have to close with him again, but thanks for taking time to read this. i just need to get my mind off of it all with some art or something.
