Chapter 2 - Shift
[JULY 12 1998-237] Eleanor |
“Oh hey Eleanor, yeah uhh I’m gonna need you to stay for a 10 hour shift this time.. Yeahhhhh uhhh yeah. Couldn’t get anyone else on today. Uhh sorry I guess.“
Of all the unthrottleable people. Standing… that stupid work poster on the gray wall behind him.. Ugh always thought that thing was like.. Kind of mega totally insufferable to have to stomach seeing every day. You know I like– never really noticed how scragly his face looks.. He looks like some of the boxes we throw out when they come out of the like.. The machine wrong. Wrinkly ass snout–
“Whatever David.“
“Yeah it’s a crazy story actual-“
I’ve like.. Like I know better than to actually pay attention to him.. I’ll just look at stuff now I think- uuuhh yeah I’m not listening to this dude… yeah the gray walls here are looking lovely today.. Medium to average sized warehouse in the like- kinda small business bracket– still the bane of my existence. 2..3.. Uh 7 like shelves full of junk people keep ordering us to send them because they’re too lazy to bother walking and getting it themselves-morons-yup still here. Forklift- mhm.
You know I like never actually noticed how like–kinda whacky shaped this place is.. Like why are the windows up there even kinda overhanging between where the two roofs meet, what kinda moron designs that, what if I want to open the window when it’s hot. BECAUSE that happens like ALL the time? LIKE today–because DAVID didn’t want to use our budget to install a new ac because DAVID knows so much like.. Better or whatever- ooh- he’s talking to me.
“That’s great Eleanor, yeah that’s great. Yeeeup. You’ll be on uh..“
“Taperoller. David, you always put me on taperoller for tuesdays.“
“Oh yeah. Definitely, yeah I do do that.“
“And then I go and log in the inventory.“
“Uh huh.“
His eyes have less life in them than a boulder.. Or like, a small clay brick or something. Dude, did you wake up on the wrong side of your dumpster. Good morning mr raccoon… This silence is so awkward ok fine-
[color=#CC8726]“Just give me the taperoller David.“
“Oh uh right–yeah they’re over there Eleanor, like by where the sorting funnel is– you know it’s like– by the.“
“OH YES! David, YES, I know where the sorting funnel is. I've worked here for 2 years now. Thank you.“
[i]Yeah. Go. Get a move on scram, I’ve been here like forever dude you just got here a month ago now beat it. Anyway.. Uhh yeah where was I? Right.. Uh the taperoller–oh gee yeah I’ve got that to look forward to all day– for my wonderful shift at this lovely job.
“God this can’t be it…“[/color]
I’ve been here for two years… TWO. Nope, I’m not doing this today. Tape roller, funnels– to the left– concrete floor. Oh yeah–I see it, right under the funnel– under the boxes. Yeah because like– where else would you have it right if not in THE most inconvenient location like ever…
shltthsk-
“You can’t be serious.“
“No no rrrrgrhGHG-“
SHHrhRRPp--
“WHO LEFT-“
I… probably shouldn’t scream– I don’t want them to think I’m like nuts or something– but seriously leaving it ON the belt!? What the hell did they think was gonna happen!? GoooooooooooOOOOOOOOOODD AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. No no no no I’m not– I’m not doing this today, just. Get the roller out– it doesn’t matter that the tape is completely stuck in the belt rollers now.. Because SOMEONE- Yeah it was 100% Sammy I can see him by the end back there behind that last box shelf avoiding me– dweeb… YEAH I know it was you, ugh go back to your box folding tool. Uhg yeah someone, Sammy, was to lazy to-
“RrgHRGHghHHHHH oh my GOSH just get OUT!!“
SzhgrhghRRRRRRRRRPp–
“gHaCK-!“
PMMMMFFF-
“g uuu h hhh-“
You know.. I didn’t really get to sleep well anyway.. The concrete is kind of lukewarm at least– that’s like– sort of colder than how hot it is right now at least. Maybe I should just like- keep laying here and staring up at those rusty ass girders holding up our crappy metal roof…I’ll just dream about like.. I dunno whatever it was I was dreaming about last night– I think I was flying that time… Lizards– something dad used to talk about… Or I could I dunno– stand up and get back to work– yeah no… I give u-
“Oh geez you ok Eleanor“
SkRKRp
shuuuFF-
thuuuoc thac-
Back–up–feet.. Wobbly– No, under no circumstance will I allow anyone to see me on the floor like that. I’m far too pretty to let that happen.
“Oh- um- yeah you kind of fell and-“
“I’m fine.. I’m fine. Just tripped- not important.“
Especially not Felix, he’s like the only person here I actually don’t disrespect.
“Heh- yeah uh right.. Sammy probably left the taperoller in the belt again right?“
“Yup.“
“Ahhhhh it’s– it’s whatever you know I’m just as fine as usual rrgh-“
My spine absolutely doesn’t feel just as fine as usual-
“Yeah, I hate it when he does that, well at least it’s not too hard to fix I suppose.. Uh- yeah“
Ugh.. lemme just stretch out real quick and- oh.. Is he grabbing a pair of scissors.. Oh.. I– I could have just did th– oh.
Snip!
“Here you go, it just needed to be cut where the tape got stuck between the rollers.“
I stand corrected- maybe I don’t disrespect him. I’m not a five year old dude.. I–I could have figured that out–
“Thanks.“
Well- now I have the dumb taperoller– ugh guess I better get to work or whatever… Sorter–other side of the room– yeah I’ll just get over to the station I guess. Button.
TSHekoooom-
Aaaaand here comes the first box. Joy.
