I just ate lunch at Dennys. I had an omelete with ham, BACON, cheese and Cheese sauce. The side was seasoned Fries with ranch dressing for dipping and two pancakes. All was washed down with an Ice Tea.

The blood flow has slowed down a bit. I'm almost glad I didn't get the extra butter on the pancakes...

Nickolas keeps trying to tell me that he can't eat grilled cheese sandwiches unless they have bacon in them. He is the next generation of Swankieness.

Ok so today at work one of the companies that provides legal filing service like, completely COMPLETELY f'd up. We were calling them throughout the day for status on something super important, and they kept lying to us... We told them we needed status before 4:00, they got the documents at 9am and said no problem, it would only take a few hours, etc. etc.

Finally I was able to get status on the court filing and they didn't get it filed correctly, they were supposed to call this office with a small correction and didn't, so it all got delayed due to them not communicating, until 4:45pm.... which means I had to reprint the entire thing, re-sort/reprint an entire project, to get it up to freeking LANCASTER tomorrow.... because they can't do their job.

OK, so short story longer, I screamed at the guy in charge at the service. SCREAMED. I don't usually raise my voice or anything, but I absolutely screamed at him, called him completely incompetent, how I wasn't paying the bill, screaming screaming screaming and then hung up.

It felt good at the time, but now I feel like turd. I was thinking about calling him back tomorrow and apologizing for my unprofessional behaviour (without saying what they did was no big deal, because it is a big deal), but what do you think? Sleep on it and see how guilty I feel tomorrow? We are looking for another service, but we need to use that company (of which that person is just a regular employee) for the time being.

You know, sometimes ya just gotta scream. It gets you heard and it relieves stress for the screamer.
The screamy wheel gets the grease.
Sorry your day is yucky.

BarTopDancer · 02-28-2008, 08:06 PM

Ugh. Sorry you had such a sucky day Cherny.

I've been there - lit into someone for not doing their job and then felt bad about it. I don't know what to tell you about apologizing though. Hopefully tomorrow goes smoothly for ya!

I had a fun day at work today- My sales numbers have never been better, but I got a negative coaching because I haven't been using the Decision Tree system- a system that in theory would be great, if it didn't lag about 15-20 seconds behind every transaction. The manager even said "It's not that we think you're not upselling, but you have to use the decision tree".
I will use the decision tree, and I will continue to tell every guest that asks what's taking so long, exactly what's taking so long, and exactly who they need to see at Guest Relations so we can get back to the job of providing great guest service.

Mousey Girl · 02-28-2008, 08:20 PM

Welll... for every step forward I am hit 3 steps back. My position was eliminated today. That was why I didn't go to a perm employee 2 weeks ago. *sigh*

Back to the temp services I go!

The funny thing is, because I felt it coming I am not nearly as upset as I should be.
