I came into work Monday to get a head start on the week. The store was closed, and I wasn’t getting paid, I just thought I should catch up. I was too stressed and angered to focus on work Saturday because of shenanigans already covered.
When I pulled up to the building, there were a bunch of trucks and other vehicles taking up a majority of the lot. In the weeks prior there had been some people lurking about that were going to film something here, so I was expecting this at some point.
“May I help you?” the man blocking the driveway asked.
“I work here.”
“We were told that everyone would have the day off today.”
Thanks for twisting the knife. “I came in to get some work done on my day off. I work in the store, so I won’t be in anybody’s way.”
“Alright, go on in.”
After I park, I go into the building, ignoring all of the people that are giving me the “Who the hell are you?” eyes.
I got a bunch done, got my list for the family meeting together, then went home to rest before the meeting, and to say goodbye to Marissa, who is now back in New York. On a sidenote, every night before you go to sleep, pray/meditate/center yourself and pray for the health of the ones you love.
Came into work yesterday, and instead of a security guard, there was a girl on a headset.
“I work here.” Deja vu
“They’re in the middle of filming right now, so please just wait one second. Mkaaaaaay, thaaaaaanks.” I could almost visualize the lump of sugar in her ass.
I drove into the lot, to find that all the spots had been taken except one. Thank God. I didn’t bother trying to back in, as I typically do because my bumper stickers might offend the conservatives and Republicans.
The entire day at work entailed me asking whether or not they were rolling, because if they were, we couldn’t make noise. Noises included printing reciepts, which meant that customers had to wait.
Puck came in, and was pissed at the whole situation, what with the customers being incovenienced, and the parking being scarce. The reality of the whole thing was that the customers found it to be exciting, as did we. Nobody cared about the inconvenience, really.
One of the Production Assistant’s, Britney, had stopped me coming in. She truly did have a lump of sugar in her ass. She also liked to kiss ass, and mine was one she kissed. I don’t know why, really. She may have been flirting with me, but my radar has been off for some time and is collecting dust, so I don’t know. At any rate, she fetched me cookies and sodas, and that rocked.
Went to the gym after work, rode on the bikes for an hour while playing the gameboy. It made the burning of 500 calories fly right by.
Came into work today, and the film crew was still here, but it wasn’t as heinous. They have since cleaned up their mess, and should be out fairly soon. Both days they offered me free food, but I declined. I’m feeling much stronger. I am keeping a really good eye on the diet. I did go a little overboard with some turkey tacos last night, but then I didn’t eat much all day, and had just worked out a good deal.
