Why My Boss is a Douche
For a long time, just about everyone that works at Dewsons Canning Bridge has regarded Joe, the nightfill manager, as a complete utter douche bag. Now I've bitched about him before in blogs but its always just been a simple "my boss sucks donkey wang" type thing. So today, because I am bored and Alicia isn't home yet to entertain me, he gets a whole blog entry to himself. So here are the reasons why my boss shits me:
- He always, ALWAYS carries loose change in his pocket, which he constantly jingles. Its infuriating. Its almost as if he does it on purpose, in a vain attempt to prove that he has money. Shame its loose change, you're like 55, and work in a supermarket.
- He does no actual work himself. He takes being supervisor literally, and does nothing but supervise. All the other supervisors work. He doesn't.
- He's always saying stupid stuff. A favourite of Casey, Adam, and I is, "Stack 'em [the boxes of product that doesn't fit on the shelves] high! Stack 'em to the sky!.......Only stack them them 4 high."
- He has insane conspiracy theories. On thursday I was listening to music through headphones and so couldn't hear what he was saying, so once I took them out he said stuff like " So whats the mother ship saying? You know those things are how aliens communicate to us..." and then asked me what I was listening to, I said "The Prodigy" (shut up, prodigy rock) and he said "Can't be that good, I've never heard of them... What style are they?" I said "Lots of styles, they're drum and bassy, acid housey, occasionally dancey..." to which he replied "You shouldn't listen to that crap! When you go home you should play the songs backwards because they have subliminal messages in them that tell you to do drugs and get into crime and whatnot. Its EVIL." I gave him a spiel about how no one does that anymore because its no longer new and interesting because everyone did it back in the day, so the moral of the story is that he's stupid.
- He came back 5 minutes later doing the E.T. walk saying "COME IN DOCTOR SPOCK, DO YOU READ ME DOCTOR SPOCK!?!" I gave him a look of disgust and kept working.
- He thinks I'm on drugs. But not the fun drugs that make you look cool, like weed, the evil drugs that rape families and whatnot, like crystal meth and heroin. His reasoning for this is that I always look tired on my sunday night shift. Could it be because I'm 18 years old and stay out til early morning on Saturday nights? Could it also be that my shift starts at 10pm and usually finishes at 1 or 2pm? No. It must be drugs.
- He constantly gives me crap about drinking and going out, saying that they're the devil and will be the end of me, and that I should do it after I've lived my life and accomplished stuff, and that instead I should work, work, work, all the time. I'm 18 for god's sake! He brags about how at his house there is "no booze, no smokes, and no loose women" to which I replied "and clearly no fun".... He got annoyed at that.
- His son is a wigger. I hate wiggers.
- He makes himself out to be a total god among men and to be ever so wise, and the foolish immigrants that work with me totally accept it. As such, he gives them advice about uni, work, and their families. Which is fair enough, he's trying to help, I just find it a little odd that someone who was dirt poor his entire life (he was born in Serbia or something) and who's one business venture (owning a local supermarket) totally failed, bankrupted him, and now he works night shift at a supermarket. Personally I'd be more inclined to take advice from a cockroach. Those fuckers can survive nuclear fallout. Now THAT is cool.
- He convinced upper management that they could live without nightfill on tuesday nights, which fucked up the whole system (cause theres load nights and overs nights, and they happen on certain days of the week... i'm not getting into it...) and now the store looks like utter shit, everyone has to work harder, and a lot of people could only work tuesday nights, which led to 2 people quitting and another of the supervisors getting ridiculously pissed off, and me getting like $40 less a week.
- He's just generally a rude prick, and always tries to be funny but just fails miserably.
