Yes, quite literally. In my previous entry, I mentioned that I had an awful day at work, and really.. it was. Take note that if you don't know me, I am not racist - because this entry might suggest that I am, but I'm not. v.v Honestly. I'm an Asian girl living in England and you would imagine that with the long posts I do in my journal, if I'm racist, I would be ranting my heart out all the time. Just.. take note of that. But yeah, here's the little rant which explains my bad time at work yesterday xD
Quote: 21:57) Yonder: *searches for new shows* And how bad was it? o0
(21:57) Nadeshiko Tani: Really, really bad. I had a rough time with the workers more than the work itself D<
(21:58) Yonder: >>; What happened?
(21:58) Nadeshiko Tani: >>;
(21:58) Nadeshiko Tani: xD
(21:58) Nadeshiko Tani: Well........
(21:58) Nadeshiko Tani: >>;
(21:58) Yonder: o:
(21:58) Nadeshiko Tani: O_o?
(21:58) Yonder: ?
(21:58) Nadeshiko Tani: I might end up ranting, you know ._.
(21:59) Yonder: No worries.. I ranted to you about school. ._.
(21:59) Nadeshiko Tani: Well... it goes like this.
(22:00) Nadeshiko Tani: When I arrived at work today, all I had to do was sit and tie strings through punched holes in a card - like those cards you find hanging on sofas and stuff. Large, rectangle, and usually say what percent discount and bla bla bla - are you familiar with it?
(22:00) Yonder: Yeah
(22:00) Nadeshiko Tani: Well, the company needed 25,000 of them D<
(22:00) Yonder: o0
(22:01) Nadeshiko Tani: So I was sitting there, tying strings onto cards. It's a really, really easy job, but after a while, your back aches because you need to sit up straight. And your neck and shoulders hurts a LOT because you keep on moving them regularly. >>;
(22:02) Nadeshiko Tani: I was sitting beside this Indian man. ._. Who I think is now attracted to me. >>; He talks to me occasionally as we did the job, but I didn't mind that - he actually asked if I was married or not and he mentioned that he's not <<;
(22:02) Yonder: >>
(22:02) Nadeshiko Tani: But well! Started work at 8:00 AM and I had my break at 11:30 AM. IMAGINE doing the same job for those hours!!! D<
(22:03) Yonder: @@ My goodness
(22:04) Nadeshiko Tani: That's not the worse. After break, I was sent to do the work again because there's boxes and boxes and boxes of them to finish. ._. There are a number of us doing it (like.. thirteen of us) but more than half are lazy Indian men - you do three and they'll only do ONE!!! Lazy bums, drove me NUTS!! But the one beside me, thankfully, was a fast worker. I continued on, but shortly after that, my manager told ten of us to clear up because he needed them to do the Halifax key fobs. And those hurt. Luckily, I was number 11, so I didn't need to do that. BUT~!
(22:06) Nadeshiko Tani: I had to do the same job as earlier. >>; Worst still, because they needed the tables for the key fobs, my manager sent me and two others to the end of the room and we had to do it STANDING!!!! DDDDD< The indian guy who "liked" me was there as well. So I STOOD there, doing those blasted cards, tying strings into them. My back aches like no tomorrow, my legs ached, my neck and shoulders, of course, also ached. And then this indian guy stood in front of me across the table - he had to do it as well. And he did NOTHING! I finish three, he did one! I finish two bundles, he finishes one! I stood quietly and he CHATS! Drove me insane because there were about four of us and BOXES to do! D<
(22:07) Yonder: ><;
(22:09) Nadeshiko Tani: And then, we finished at 3:15 PM (YES, that long doing those cards! D< wink . WORST still was that my manager sent me to do those Halifax key fobs. >>; Those hurt. You risk yourself getting papercuts or getting the skin on your thumb to be snapped between plastic and metal - it -hurts-. And while I was doing that, those indians didn't even do anything. One rummaged through the box to find the smallest bundle he could find. He spends ages doing it and after he's done, because he didn't want to do more, he clean the trash for five minutes, chats to his friends, and disappeared into the toilets until it's time to leave. I was frustrated. >> So I told everyone that I'm not putting up with it and that tomorrow's my day off and I'll come back on Thursday. Came home, ranted my heart out to both my parents. >>;
(22:10) Nadeshiko Tani: Told you I'd end up ranting >>;
(22:10) Yonder: I'd be ranting too. D<
(22:11) Nadeshiko Tani: >>; I'm DEAD annoyed. Really. ><"
(22:12) Yonder: I can understand. @@
(22:12) Nadeshiko Tani: *huffs*
(22:12) Nadeshiko Tani: Mom was shocked. She wasn't at work today, so I had to endure it all alone ;;
(22:13) Nadeshiko Tani: She told me to rant at the manager, but Alan was pretty angry today. Must be because of all the work piling up with those stupid workers doing nothing. >>;
(22:15) Yonder: >> Well, if you tell him about it, they may get replaced with faster workers. O;
(22:15) Nadeshiko Tani: No~ No chance. My mom always rants about them >>;
(22:15) Yonder: >>;'
(22:16) Nadeshiko Tani: xD Ah well~
(22:16) Nadeshiko Tani: I really did rant at my mom and dad. Dad was speechless. xDD
(22:16) Yonder: xD Hehehe~
(22:17) Nadeshiko Tani: xDD I can't blame him. His first daughter frustrated over adult workers who works slower than her. xDD
(22:17) Nadeshiko Tani: Do you know that they all are doing their Masters in univeristy? @_@ By the way they behave, I hope they won't achieve
(22:17) Nadeshiko Tani: University*
(22:19) Yonder: xD Hahah!
(22:19) Nadeshiko Tani: xD
(22:19) Yonder: Goodness. xD
(22:19) Nadeshiko Tani: Seriously. Mom said that next time, don't even look at them - because if you do, you won't work properly because you'll get angry. xD
(22:20) Yonder: Are you allowed to wear headphones when you work? If so, listen to music and tune them out completely.
(22:20) Nadeshiko Tani: Yeah, you're allowed music. But it doesn't matter if you don't hear them - you can SEE them from the corner of your eye no matter how hard you're concentrating xD
(22:21) Yonder: Wear those vision things that horses do. lmao
(22:21) Nadeshiko Tani: Hahahaha!!! XDDD
(22:21) Nadeshiko Tani: Good idea! <333
(22:22) Nadeshiko Tani: But I wonder why they don't feel ashamed of themselves. I mean, think about it - I'm fifteen, they're about thirty or so, my mom works there and is, quite literally, one of the best workers there is. O.o You would expect that they want to be better than a fifteen-year-old xD
(22:23) Yonder: Hahaha~ Perhaps they're think to 'let the youngen take care of it'.
(22:23) Nadeshiko Tani: *rolls eyes* If so, I really want to butcher them D<
(22:24) Yonder: >> Why haven't they been fired?
(22:24) Nadeshiko Tani: I HAVE NO IDEA! D< That's the question all the Malaysian workers wondered about for YEARS
(22:24) Yonder: >>;;;
(22:25) Nadeshiko Tani: I'm serious! O_o
(22:25) Nadeshiko Tani: Alan must've seen them, but no action was taken. ._.
(22:26) Yonder: Maybe you should just yell at the Indian guys then. ._. Give them a humiliation/guilt trip.
(22:26) Yonder: xD
(22:26) Nadeshiko Tani: Heheh!! "OI!! You! I'm fifteen and I'm working faster than you, nyahahahaha!! *sticks tongue out*"
(22:26) Yonder: You should. xD
(22:27) Nadeshiko Tani: I'll get fired XDDDD
(22:27) Nadeshiko Tani: Though I'm sorely tempted XD
(22:28) Yonder: >>; Why would you get fired if they haven't? o0
(22:28) Nadeshiko Tani: Making a total havoc of the place? xDD
(22:29) Yonder: >>;
(22:29) Nadeshiko Tani: XP
