This story is short. This week flew by fast. My boss was still a jerk, but nothing major happened that I could blog about, till today.
Work was slow today, so my duties of the day consisted of cleaning. I started at my desk, then the rest of the "sales department".
I put things back in their correct locations. I vacuumed the whole place except the office of my boss. The reason I didn't vacuum or clean his office is because I was saving the WORST for last.
I finally finished, then decided to go ahead and start cleaning his office. He was sitting at his chair, eating his McDoubles. (McDonalds)
I started picking up all the papers scattered on the floor because they looked important. I also picked up all the old fast food garbage all over the floor. I cleaned his desk, dusted, and shined all his office equipment.
I was finally done. As soon as I was walking out of his office, he said, "John, You missed a few things".
He then threw 3 McDonalds wrappers on the floor of his office.
I responded with, "Are you serious right now? I just cleaned your whole office. The trash is right next to you!"
He responded angered with, "Pick it up, bitch".
I was so pissed that I almost quit right there and then. But then I realized that I couldn't quit because I had to many great benefits here.
I didn't say anything and picked up his trash.
Boss, you're an asshole.

Can I get a Lunch Break?
Posted By: htoledh - 1:38 PM
Today has been a stressful day. When I arrived at work, my boss told me that we are expanding our work in our industry. He said that we (we, as in just me) would be doing work that required to wear double latex gloves and constant cleaning on these new products.
My boss told me that this new "project" is a high priority that must me done as soon as possible.
I wasn't to thrilled about it, but since I work under this baboon, I knew I had to do the work. My boss told me to start immediately.
Time flew by as I worked my hands off. I checked the clock and noticed it was lunch time. I took off my gloves and noticed that my hands were stained red. I asked my boss if we had any cleaners that removed the red stains and he said yes because he came prepared.
I nodded and told him I was heading out to lunch. My boss cut me off and said "Not yet, we need to finish these as soon as possible".
I headed back to my new "work station" and didn't bother to argue because i'm used to taking late lunches. I then went back to work.
A few hours later passed, and noticed my boss was walking out. I asked right before he exited if I could take a lunch now. He responded with "Nah, keep working dude, i'm getting us lunch".
Thirty minutes later he came back with a bag of McDonalds. I remembered I didn't tell him what I wanted, so I was a bit confused. I asked him "What did you get us?" He responded with "I got me and Bill some double quarter pounders".
(Bill is our ONE employee that works in the back, manufacturing our real industry products.)
I responded with "Alright...I guess i'm going to lunch now". My boss replied with "Nope. Keep on working".
Irritated at this point, I didn't know what to do, so I kept on working. A couple of more hours passed then I realized it was already time for me to go home.
I cleaned up my station and headed to the bathroom to wash my hands with that special cleaning soap. I spent about 20 minutes trying to clean my hands but was unable to do so. My boss is already gone at this point so I couldn't yell at him.
So overall, my boss didn't buy me lunch like he said he would. He didn't LET me take a lunch so I could eat. He lied about being "prepared" with the cleaning supplies because both of my hands are stained bright red.
