Yesterday was my first day back at work after my holiday. Now the place is meant to be being refurbished but it looks no different to when I left. Just before I left, I was told that the lighting area would be down in two weeks but it’s still there.
An update on the parking situation. We have now been told that we have to park in the top car park. With no exceptions. We get two strikes. First strike we get a yellow card and a warning. Second time and it’s a red card, you’re dismissed from the company and they escort you from the building. Of course, where do I park. Yep, at the back of the front car park. But if it comes to anything I will argue the fact that I haven’t been told officially. It was only hearsay.
Today I treated the family to a Mc Donald’s dinner. Nice of me huh. But it wasn’t exactly fast food. Firstly we went through the drive through and waited 20 minutes before getting to the window and being told that the chip and pin machine was out of order. I argued with the man, saying they could have let us know sooner and he replied with some line about them being understaffed. When it doesn’t take 2 minutes to put up a sign. The man said you will have to come in if you want to use your card, I don’t think there is much of a queue at the moment. So I drove round the corner and parked up. I went inside and had to wait a further 20 minutes to be served in there. All because a group of children from a youth Christians group, that’s about 30 or so kids were there ordering one by one. They had no idea what they wanted to order. Plus they only had two people serving. If you don’t already know, I really don’t like kids and I wonder why. Add to that they were talking at the top of there voices and the fact that I was getting more and more hacked off every minute. I finally got served and they fucked up my order. To start with they only gave me 2 cups, where I ordered 3 drinks. Then I got back to the car and found that they only gave my one portion of fries, yeah we needed 3. So we got really hacked off. We charged into the restaurant and demanded to see the manager. We explained the situation nice and calmly and we got the fries we were missing, plus compensation of a free desert for every person. So a brownie and 2 apple pies for free. So all in all, we had to wait 50 or so minutes to get FASTFOOD, when it should have only taken 10 minutes tops.
On a good note I am currently sat on my new sofas. We have been sitting on deck chairs and the floor for weeks. It is so heavenly to sit in comfort.
