Today Just Sucked !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 Hi friends, I had such a bad day today but when I came home this lovely TV Guide was waiting for me in my mailbox, a kind J- lander had bid on it for me on Ebay and won it,  and I opened it today and almost cried on Lilly's and Scotty's beautiful faces.When I went into work today both restrooms were Out of Order, no surprise there I guess, but I kind of knew the rest of the day would be shitty, no pun intended.I handed Melissa my request for time off for March  for my upcoming Vegas trip and she was like clicking and making funny noises saying "Uh oh Black Friday we will be really busy before that week, or something like that" I was 'nt feeling too good after that, I started to feel sick at work today, my head was pounding and my face was feeling warm.I was thankful I was only there until 2:00 p.m. today because I was'nt feeling well, but I think Melissa had something to do with that, the beast effect I call it if you will, lol.So yeah my mom went into the store after calling the Beast and had words with her and so the bottom line is I ca'nt take that week off in March inless I am working one day that week but I kind of doubt that, she was telling me today that everyone would be working that week and how busy the store would be and Cyndie ( our district manager) had agreed with her decision about not letting me have that week off. Bet that made both of thier days- A huge Phooey !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I talked to Colin from Corporate on the phone tonight , but he said that the week before Easter was a bad time to ask for time off and my only option was to see if someone else or others could work for me that week.I told Colin a few things about Melissa , like how she treats the customers, for example the - blinds incident last week which the customer had put  those blinds on hold and Melissa told me to put them back out,  and how we are all unhappy with her as our manager.But I told him to keep that between us so hopefully he will.He said Steph had called him too so I was glad to hear that, I know Steph has been really unhappy since Melissa's arrival, Melissa told Steph she looked stoned which I thought was very out - of line.Steph is just a kid for crying out loud, In a way I am glad I was only working one day this week, I can only hope more people complain about Melissa, I just want her gone so bad, she is a 1 out of 10 as a manager, Every day I miss Anthony more and more.But I liked Greg alot too, it's just a damn shame he was a loan for us.Anyhow enough work drama, I'm work for the rest of the week so I can relax , send some letters, work out, catch up with emails and journals, etc, lol.I hope you all have a good Wednesday, I will being off , lol.Please keep Donna ( DCA 721) And Lisa Jo in your prayers, they are both having a hard time right now so they could use some extra hugs and healing thoughts. Think I will curl up in bed later and watch Cold Case at 11:00 p.m. on TNT and drift off to sleep after.I Love You All Lisa XOXO

I don't know where to start here.  I guess a 1 out of 10 is better than a zero.  I hope there will be no backlash after telling the corporate peson on her.  I've never heard that the week before Easter was such a big retail time.  Sounds silly to me.  Any yes you did mean that pun.  LOL  Hope you have a happy tomorrow!  Luv ya!

I can't  believe the nixed your trip to Vegas. I hope you can work it out where someone will cover for you then they'll let you go. Enjoy your time away from that place.
Take care, Chrissie

Oh, Lisa.. I'm sorry they won't let you have off to go to Vegas!  That sucks big time!  Are you going to just postpone it and go after Easter?  Or are you not going to be able to go at all, now?
Why do some managers have to be so nasty?? :/

I hope you have a nice few days off!

Oh, so sorry you won't be able to go on your Vegas trip. That just sucks. Maybe someone can cover your shift though? Emmi

Could someone cover the times you are supposed to work?  If not, can you reschedule your trip?

Lisa, be careful talking about her because the stupid bitch is the one who makes the schedule...i have a feeling she will shoot herself in the foot soon anyway and be gone but i dont want you to have her wrath coming down on you until then. I am sorry you didnt get that week off. Who got you that awesome TV Guide? I am so tickled you got that!
LOVE YOU!!!!

I'm hoping they fire your manager.  She's a real piece of work.  That's so sweet about the J-Land friend.  There are some awesome people out here in journal land.  Hope you feel better soon.
