Thursday at around 4:30pm we ran out of quarters in the register. I was not too concerned since the shop closes at 5pm. Boss came in from service calls at 4:40pm and went to Z-out the register. There was much bitching and much drama. He expected to be told when we are running low on certain change so he can get to the bank to obtain more in time before the bank closes. Blah, blah, *bitch* *drama* blah, blah. Friday he obtained all of 1 roll of quarters. So a bit ago I noticed we were down to 5 quarters in the register. It was 3:30 pm. I figure better call him fast and let him know, since the bank closes at 4pm. Boss' response: "Well, what do you want me to do about it?" What I wanted to say was "You have now been told, so you can't bitch later about how we have to notify in time to get more." What I did say: "Just wanted to give you a heads up as instructed on Friday." I think I'll pick up a bottle of wine on the way home. *sigh* and it's only Monday. |

Drink all the wine and then hit him with the bottle. What a pain he is. |

After you drink the wine, fill the bottle with quarters first, THEN whack him. |

IVY - my boss is the king of saying one thing one day and then saying something completely different the next day. I've pretty much washed my hands of him and passed him off to new employee...she is already complaining about him doing that and all I can say is "yeah I know." and then go back to my office and smile that it really isn't my problem anymore. |
