Brad just came back from ToyFair and handed me a perfectly appropriate freebie sticker of Happy Bunny which reads:

ReinVENTion

I should rename this blog "Kill Mario"

I have to vent everything here since I'm holding it all in at work.... we're waiting for that big explosion.

So I've come to realize that EVERYDAY she has something new to tell me to do. Frankly I think she's just pulling some of this shit out of her ass because the stuff she tells me is NOT MY JOB!

From day 1 its been her job to turn the phones off and lock the doors. Today I come in after having - FOR ONCE - left on time yesterday and Mario says: "Can you help me check the phones and lock the doors at the end of the day?"

I said, "Sure." But then thought, "Why the hell? That's her job - always has been." So I added, "Just remind me!" to make it clear that she'd asked me to do something that was unfamiliar because it wasn't my job.

Her response? "Write yourself a note."

Then she added, "Because I don't just sit here doing nothing and I didn't know you'd left yesterday."

Oh I'm sure it was a big shocker... everybody had clocked out and the lights were off!

Dumb bitch.

(And no - there is no sexual tension here!)

Ah hah!

I just wanted to make this point - today Mario is out so I have to do the whole order proof-charge-cancel process by myself AND there were a couple of 2010 expiration date orders in the batch. AND they did NOT decline!!

Heavy sigh...

This is why Mario should not be in charge of answering e-mails from customers:

Quote:

"We apologize in the delay to responding to you but we filling a tracer on your
package. We could not find any information on your order. The only
thing can you verify the shipping address to your order? We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience we have caused your order but please let us know if the shipping address was correct so we can finish investigating the destination of your package. Thanks for your patience we apologize for the inconveneince. We Customer Service"

Filling a tracer? Investigating the destination of his package?? Beyond the fact that this makes no sense ... this was an international shipment and we can't file a trace. All there was to tell the dude was "be patient."
