valentine's day Working with an asshole.

Only one month later did I realize that I've been working with an asshole all along.

Something extremely infuriating happened today.

I'm so freakin' pissed off now even as I'm typing this blog post. I need to rant rant rant!! And you readers shall be my listeners. Please?

I shall call that asshole, F. To honour the F word.

Okay, so I was at the popcorn bar today. I had to open counter, which makes me the cashier. The workers who don't have to open counter at the popcorn bar, are called runners, because they have to help the cashiers get everything the customer wants.

There were a lot of people today.

And my counter + Shazana's counter had no runners. So basically, we had to take the customers' orders and do everything ourselves, including the runner's job.

One customer ordered Milo Ice.

I went to fill the cup up.

The Milo in the tank was finished before the cup was full.

And I saw F leaning casually at the counter, looking very free. I told him politely, "Erm, there's no more Milo Ice." I was expecting him to help me refill the tank.

But being the asshole that he is, he said to me in an annoying, bossy tone, "Do yourself lah."

First two words in my mind? Fuck you. If I can do it myself I wouldn't have to ask you.

But I just walked away without saying anything, and asked another person, Wilson, to help fill the tank up cause I had to run my counter. When F saw Wilson, he said loudly, "Let her do it herself lah. She no need to do ah now?"

What the hell is that shit-face's problem? That is the runner's job to do. Not the cashier.

I was already trying very hard not to swear in front of my customers.

I asked another person again, Kevin. And F told him the same thing. "Ask her to do it herself."

!(*@&!*#@#&@*&#*@#&@*

Babi busuk.

When all the customers have entered the cinema, I refilled the tank myself. I went into the tele-sales room, and ranted about that stupid pig to my friends, not forgetting to include a few F words here and there.

I think he must have overheard me or something, so he called the Manager.

The Manager asked me what happened, so I just explained the truth to him. I was already very busy, I had no runners, and he REFUSED to help me. He even told off all the people whom I had asked to help.

It was so obvious, the Manager knew it's his fault. But then, F said I scolded him, fuck you and all that. HELLO? I didn't even say it in your face, and don't act like you didn't deserve it. You're worth every single F word I said today.

Manager said, F thought I was new, had never fill up the Milo tank before, so he was just teaching me. Teaching me MY ASS. I've been working here for one month already, you think I dunno how to do such a pathetic thing?? Who needs you to teach me?

And even so, you don't call what you just did, 'teaching.' Teaching is explaining slowly and carefully how to do something. What you did was acting like you own the place and being a motherfucker by bossing people around.

Ugh.

When I was back in the tele-sales room again, the Manager suddenly appeared again and said, "Amanda, take it easy ok? He's like that one."

OH. You mean he usually acts like a motherfucker, and it wasn't just me?

I feel a whole lot better now.
