MeanLaureen's Useless Poll of the Day - Tuesday

[MeanLaureen]

Good morning everyone!

*yawn* another early day at work.

Man, I tell ya! Just when you think work can't get worse. The more you give them, the more they take.

3 yrs ago they changed salaried managers hourly commitment from a minimum of 40 to a minimum of 45 hours a week - more during holidays. So essentially, we took a pay cut.

We are not allowed to come in more than an hour before the store opens unless it's a holiday (which bites because it's a great time to do floor moves or paperwork uninterrupted!)

So with Mother's day I scheduled myself in every day this week at 7:30am - because with inventory last week we were unable to prepare for the holiday as needed and we have to do a serious recovery.

Well I changed my out time on some days. Some days I worked until 6 pm which is 10.5 hours and on another day I scheduled myself out at 4pm. In all it added up to a scheduled 45.5 hours (which you always end up working more). My boss calls me and tells me that just because I am coming in early for recovery - it doesn't mean I get to go home earlier than usually scheduled (6:30pm) It's my loss if I come in early She finally agreed to let me out at 5pm when I reminded her that my FMLA orders are for me to technically not work over 9 hours a day/45hrs a week - even though I break that all the time.

What a pain in the patooty

Anyway - I'm rambling here.. on to the poll question

No doubt about it - definitely math! I have loved math/logic ever since I was little. It is the only subject I've ever *really* liked, which is why I'm majoring in it!
