Yikes Huckles  I didn't say anything because the assistant manager is the type of person that you don't know how she'll react to things. As one of my coworkers says: You don't know if her reaction will be nice or mean. When I go into work today at 3, I am hoping my mananger will be there. I am off tomorrow. If my manager isn't there, there isn't much I can do about it =/ *crossing fingers* My dad got angry today at the gym. I was doing bicep curls, and a personal trainer comes waltzing in and pinches my shoulder and tells me to stand up straight, and crap. I was so pissed. First: I was IN THE MIDDLE of my set. Second: YOU are not my trainer, DO NOT TOUCH ME! My dad saw it and he talked to the manager, and the manager talked to the trainer. The trainer walked up to my dad and my dad chewed him out O_O I was in such shock when the trainer pinched my shoulder. I even said "OWWW!" but he wouldn't let go. Rule: Do not mess with my dad. He will bite, and bite very hard. |

you were not a contracted client of that trainer. in the eyes of the law that is no different than if they had grabbed your butt while doing squats.
talk to the manager again and ask him to call the police because you are pressing assault charges against the trainer. then ask for the number of their representative from corporate headquarters (or owner if it is a small gym).

Mike, my dad talked to the trainer also. He will leave me alone.
I understand him wanting to help, but in the middle of a set? That is just setting up for an injury because it can surprise the person. I get startled because I zone out when I do things. |

You mean like the girl who was in my husband's class who had a brand new fancy laptop because she fell out of the dentist chair while under anesthesia? |

lol, i wish! I spoke to my manager today, and when I told her, she said "I GAVE THAT SHIFT SPECIFICALLY TO YOU!!" and stormed off, and changed my shift back LOL!! I was so scared and so grateful. I thanked her later. There are 2 assistant managers at my job. both are leaving to other stores on Jan 1st (assistant managers have to switch stores every 3 years) and one of them is REALLY awesome. She is the most laid back, down to earth woman that I've ever worked with. I'm going to miss her to death During the summer, she gave me an entire bag FULL of romaine lettuce from her garden! |

My dad is usually very calm, but when it comes to people messing with me, he can do a complete 360, LOL |

Rocket Bun, Ready for Launch...
Just saw this on CuteOverload and it made me giggle so I thought I'd share. I was at the bookstore yesterday and bought my CuteOverload PageADay Calendar half-price! Yay! I usually get it for Christmas but I didn't this year so it was great to find it on sale.
I need some cute cheering up today. Mystee is very unwell. We're going to the vet today to get her another anti-inflammatory shot but this will be her last one. Hopefully it will buy us some more time with her. She seems to still be in good spirits, still trying to scratch the furniture (which is funny because she's de-clawed) and loving spending time with her Daddy. But she's having a really hard time eating the last couple of days and I can tell she's really uncomftorable in her mouth. It saddens me greatly to know she won't be around much longer as well as knowing the dreaded decision is coming soon. I've never had to make that decision before. My animals always just passed away on their own or gave us zero choice in the matter (when my diabetic cat went into a sort of coma).
I'm bringing Mr. Bindi to the vet at the same time for his ear re-check. He just finished his meds on Wednesday so keep your fingers crossed for him! I better bundle up my babies really good, it's like -20C out there! |

Aww poor Mystee. =( I remember when you first posted about it, so I was wondering how things were going. I still feel so awful about my kitty and he's been gone almost 3 years.
Well, I finally broke down and went to the urgent care clinic. I couldn't stand it anymore. I would have to wait another 4 days before I could go to the health center at school since they are closed for the holiday break. They gave me antibiotics, so things should be good now. I'm just worried about the bill. They filed with my "insurance", but I don't know if it will pay for it or not. All the card says is that there's a $400 deductible, no mention of a co-pay since you're supposed to use it at the health center. *sigh* |

LBJ, ask the billing department if they have any financial assistance programs. It couldn't hurt to try. Im glad you are going to feel better soon.
LPT, I am so sad for you and Mystee. That is so hard to deal with. Good luck with making the call. HUGS! |

Huckleberry - I'll have to see who I will owe the money to I guess. Since it was submitted, the insurance may pay the clinic and then expect me to pay the insurance back. If that's the case, then I doubt they would reduce the amount. |

Leopold bit me so hard last night, I wanted to cry. He was just sitting in my lap and then CHOMP! He bit my knee, through my jeans. If I hadn't had the jeans on, he surely would have drawn blood. There were two tooth mark indentations in my skin and it was turning black and blue. =\ |

Oh who knows, LOL
He bites me for no apparent reason most of the time, but sometimes he bites me because he wants me to stop grooming him or whatnot. On this particular occasion, I wasn't grooming him. He was just sitting in my lap and I assume wanted off. Why he didn't just get off is beyond me. It's not like he couldn't. |

Ugh. I"m happy that my customers return to me and ask "how is your rabbit?" but there are ones that i want to slap with my scanning gun. one lady let me talk about chacha bun and she went onto to say that they used to raise rabbits and er... yeah. it made me REALLY UPSET. why would you mention something like that to someone that KEEPS a rabbit in a house as a pet? =/ A customer tried putting an 18 pack of beer on the belt. i told him nicely to keep it in the cart, and he said "you need the exercise anyway." i said back to him "i already exercised today," which is true  . he shut up and the customer that i was ahead of him held in a laugh :X. it is always men with bellies that say that comment and it makes me want to tell them "dude, YOU exercise." but, i'm not mean.. and i can't be meant at my job >_< 2 more days of work until i am on a 5 day vacation! i'm not sure how my diva will like that! |

Haha! I have mean customers too. Sometimes you just have to take it. I remember years ago, there was this woman with some sort of complex going on in her head. She came to me to ask about the shapewear. I showed where it was. Then she asked "do you know anything about these?". Before I could even answer, she very abruptly said "oh, what am I asking you for. You're such a string bean!". I didn't say anything and just left her there. What's sad is that this woman was 2 sizes smaller than I was! So I don't know if she had some sort of eating disorder or what.
Yesterday, I had something funny happen though. A customer called saying that he had purchased some earrings for his wife and one pair had apparently not made it into the bag. I asked him what they were and then told him I would call him back when I found them. I found them a short time later and I went to call him back. Right as I went for the phone, it started ringing. I answered, it was him. The conversation:
Him: I'm sorry to have bothered you, but I found the earrings. They were wrapped in tissue paper instead of being put inside the gift box.
Me: That's okay, I'm glad you found the earrings.
Him: Thank you so much for your time. Have a happy new year.
Me: You too.
Him: Okay, love you, goodbye. |
