Man, the store got hammered last night and I was off. I worked tonight and need money and it was absolutely dead. I made a whopping $16 and went home at 6:30. *sigh* Of course, I had these plans of coming home, getting my homework done and going to bed early, but I got to messing around with my website installation stuff and here I am. I guess I better get to the homework :-(

Remember a while back when I wrote about the one manager that was cheating the female employee out of hours? Well, he was busted back to a driver to make room for the dude that was busted back from head manager at the other store. I guess on Monday he had been caught cancelling a couple of the orders he had delivered and pocketing the money. The dumbass was too stupid to pull the cancel tags off the printer and the manager saw them. Phone calls to those customers confirmed that the orders had been delivered and paid for. What a moron. He was fired on the spot. He said he did it because he felt he was getting screwed and he wasn't making enough money on the orders he was delivering. The girl that told me all of this was the same one who got her hours axed by this jerk. She was really pissed off about this: the head manager is considering taking him back because they're short-staffed. Tough shit, I say. Hire some other people. I know he's been stealing because the nightly cash reconcilliation has been off ALOT lately. The guy should've been fired for cheating the girl out of her hours and then he pulls this crap. Good riddance, I say. The sad thing is that I can't say squat because I really need to keep this job for a little while, at least. I can't wait for the day I walk out of that store for good.

This week's paycheck quote was:

So true, so true.

I was talking to the girl that has recently started doing some day shifts at the same store where Moron Manager (computer crasher) works. I remember a few weeks back where the head manager had posted a note about how he was the only one authorized to make time clock changes. I meant to ask him what that was all about, but since it really doesn't affect me, it slipped my mind. She told me that there was a period where she was working six days a week to try and make more money, but her paychecks were not getting bigger. She finally asked the assistant if she could see her payroll record. She noticed it was off, and eventually told the head manager about it. Moron Manager was changing her clock-out times to cheat her out of hours that she worked. He's never liked her, but that was criminal. Man, that creep should've been fired on the spot.

I really, really, really, really, really need to find a way to bring in some extra cash. Unfortunatley, with my work and school schedule, there's no way to take on another part-time job. I also don't have a bunch of stuff to sell on eBay. Any ideas?

(Oh, and selling myself is not an option.)
