Its that time of year again when the great state of North Carolina decides to save some money by making me take a full month, 31 whole days, off from work. I will be able to collect some minuscule amount of unemployment, though I would rather be working. Of all the people who only have to take two weeks off, only one knows how to do my job and none want to.
On top of that, the summer manager wants to mess with my hours. I usually work 5:30 am to 2:30 pm. I get there early enough to get all my vitally important work done before the students arrive and wreck the place. She says she needs me there at 7:00. That means I have to work my way around HORDES of people. That means that no actual cleaning will be achieved. Plus, it means that I would get off work at 4 pm. That gives me 30 minutes to walk home and another 30 minutes to show dress and get to class. She says that it is because I am the only housekeeper this summer. I was the only one last summer because I did all the work! The girl who “worked” with me got there an hour and a half after me so all the important stuff was done. On top of that, she lacked the upper body strength to take out the trash or run the floor machine!
I have class at 5:00 pm! She told me that I need to be flexible! Why is it that I have to be more flexible than everyone else?! Its not my fault that they won’t hire more people! And I am most certainly not going to sacrifice my education for that place! Nursing School is my way out of that festering rats nest of a university!
Why won’t the world just DIE!?
Sometimes I wish one of those little bastards would go Virginia Tech and shoot up the place. I’d have a good chuckle and the fucker would end my suffering forever.
