Not likely. My boss actually likes me. Apparently people were complaining that I was throwing a fit.

I wasn't throwing a fucking fit! The literal extent of my 'fit' was asking all the people who were there if they'd borrowed it or knew anyone who did.

Odds the person who stole it reported you are...

Lottel · « **Reply #2242 on:** July 29, 2012, 01:48:13 AM »

My boss hates me, I've been threatened to be fired at least thrice a day since she's started, my computer won't read my harddrive anymore, and I'm being investigated for credit card fraud.

It's been a stellar day and a half.

Mods, Shinra's throwing a fit. Would one of you tell him to cut it out?

Mongrel · « **Reply #2244 on:** July 29, 2012, 07:09:42 AM »

Wait... credit card fraud? WTF?

This was basically it with less nice stapler and more chewed up usb cable my cats ate

it's monday!

Them: "Hi, I'm locked out of my account"

(verify the caller, unlock the account)

Them: "Is there anything that could have caused this?"
Me: "Well, did you change your password recently?"
Them: "No."
Me: "Have you been locked out recently?"
Them: "No.'
Me: "Well, is it possible you had capslock on, or typo'd the password?"
Them: "No, that's impossible."

edit: another one

Them: "When I launch my token, I get a Critical Error"
Me: "Alright, have you tried restarting your computer?"
Them, incredulous and offended - a tone that says 'you are condescending to me': "...No"

:| lady, i am not trying to waste your time, reboots literally fix 30% of my callers' issues every day

it fixed the fucking problem by the god damn way, and they were rude all the way to the end of the fucking call

"Yeah, even I've heard they want to fire you but can't. Which is bullshit. You do your job great. They just don't like you."
Every coworker. Literally every person I work with says this.

In any other story, this is what happens when you do sleep with your boss.

Mongrel · « **Reply #2251 on:** July 30, 2012, 12:40:55 PM »

I just want to know how anyone could dislike Lottel SO INTENSELY.

I mean, if it was a guy complaining about the competition, sure, I could see that.

R^2 · « **Reply #2252 on:** July 30, 2012, 12:59:19 PM »

Maybe she doesn't like gut-wrenching puns.

Lottel: Collect documentation and evidence. A "forced quit" is where they can't fire you but make your job so miserable you quit. It's illegal, and you can at least pull unemployment after a forced quit if you don't actually press charges.

Lottel · « **Reply #2253 on:** July 30, 2012, 02:13:23 PM »

I've been taking pictures of the unreasonable lists of my duties as well as before and after pictures of the areas I clean.

The problem is they don't have a good reason to fire me. And I won't give them one.

Brentai · « **Reply #2254 on:** August 01, 2012, 09:31:17 AM »

"So this log says it started at 18:16:16 on Tue Jul 31. Sounds like the one you're looking for, right?"
"No, I started it around 6:16 last night."

To be fair, not everybody operates on a 24 hour clock.

Thad · « **Reply #2256 on:** August 01, 2012, 10:14:43 AM »

Yesbut the conversion consists of adding 12 to a number.

McDohl · « **Reply #2257 on:** August 01, 2012, 10:20:52 AM »

That's askin' too much.

(I still operate on the 24 hour clock, 4 years after getting out.

EUROPEAN SPOTTED.

I use a 24 hour clock because... I don't actually know why I do. I was never forced to. Probably has something to do with a digital watch not being set for 12 hour clock at some point in my childhood :D
