I think God is trying to tell me something.

Like...
QUIT YOUR FREAKING CRAPPY JOB ALREADY!

I don't know who to talk to, and I like the girls that I work with. That's what is keeping me working at Target.
What a jackass, right?

Here is how the good lord was speaking to me today.
1. About two seconds after walking in the door today we are told that our team lead has called out.
Starting out the shift one person short isn't a good sign.
2. We go into the equipment room to get our PDAs. They're all marked with letters to help keep track of them. There are two left.

F and U.

I am seriously not making that up. We have taken to referring to ourselves as "Team F-U" and I think it's going to really catch on. (Especially if I never freaking quit).
3. We have to do a second markdown on a bunch of stupid candy that is not only on the checklanes but is also filling up an end cap. Oh, the fun.
4. I end up being the one that does the markdowns on the booze aisle.
I almost break a dozen bottles of wine while knocking my printer off my cart.
It's bad to almost break your equipment, but it's even worse to also destroy a whole lotta glass crap full of booze at the same time.
5. We are told during our morning huddle that our area directors (or whatever they're called) have just done a "walk through" of our store within the last few days. What makes that unusual is that they didn't actually walk through our store. They used the store's cameras to do the walk through from a store in another city.
Hello big brother!
I was proud of myself for putting on such a nice show for big brother today while in the booze aisle.
6. RIDICULOUS amounts of expired food. We're supposed to check dates on food when we mark it down. We do, but seriously. The people that stock it in the first place should be checking it, as should the team leads in charge of the different parts of the grocery side of the store. I found crap that expired in June of 2008. YUMMY!

Okay, I'm done listing the stupid crap that I think are signs telling me to go ahead and quit.
I think I just wanna relax a little before I need to get ready for bed.
Peace out!

OMG. F & U. Seriously...that's good stuff.

I'm sorry it's so crappy, but I really am glad you are finding "humor" in it all. I want to be part of the FU gang! Snort.

I love you Jess...we need to move closer to enjoy the "finer" things in life. I think God really does have a sense of humor.

At first I didn't realize you said you almost broke the bottles...I read it as you almost broke open a bottle of wine and started drinking right then and there :)
