Well because the previous manager disabled the fire suppression system at work I had heard rumors that "that if I have to come back here one more time I am shutting you down" from the fire marshal.
So about a month or so after I heard that the alarm came one we usher everyone out and the fire chief shuts down the store. We were escorted to get our personal things and back out.
Many of my Co workers drove off to go party or something I went home and did laundry. The Store Manager woke up and reopened the store at 3am while it was still shut down.
Weeks later one of the maintenance personal decided to clean up a oil spill with acetone based floor cleaner :rotate: the store was not shut down because of the fire it caused nor was the fire dept called

As I keep saying I work in hell
I'm pretty sure hell possesses a much better understanding and command of fire than your workplace seems to have.
Well one of the parting words the lead support gave me before he left was if I don't get his job he recommended I look to do something else as I bust my ass and get treated like shit which is not right
They don't deserve what I do for them
Still I am torn about accepting it as I had a horrible summer because of what three people did

I am so extremely mad at work right now. Someone has moved around all my stuff at my desk and someone used up all of the Kleenex I bought because I constantly need to blow my nose and I walked out for now because I need to try and relax.
People have no respect for personal space at this place at all. I hate it.

Those are vacancies.

Last day of the year for me. No desire to start new projects, all my tickets are tucked away and managed.. so I've spent today cleaning up my hard drive and chucking way out of date manuals.
Everyone capable of making the decision official has already left the office for their extended weekend.
How can we close early in these circumstances?

I am taking deep breathes and trying not to just walk out. Watching us make the same errors over and over again due to our upper management / owner has put me in a right foul mood.

I was off today. Next week, I'm off Monday and Tuesday for Christmas, work Wednesday, and am off Thursday and Friday because I'm working next weekend.
I'm working tomorrow, but in between my day off today and all my days off next week, it seemed like a minor formality.
Now that I'm already in holiday gear, it turns out it's not minor at all! It's a whole work day that I have to put pants on for and everything! I am not pleased.
Woof, so work has me doing a project that involves checking to see if businesses are properly licensed by the state. Not a huge deal, the state has a website with a search for that stuff. Except after doing it all day now the "I'm not a robot" captcha tuned into "ID all the traffic lights in this picture" and then to "Identify the cars in these several pictures" and now to "ID the cards, then the pictures disappear and new ones show up, not identify traffic lights, now identify crosswalks" Like I'm up to 5 captcha tasks per search now.

Personally, I like that some of those sites use captchas to break captchas on other websites. Cough.

it does make sense. i'm pretty sure it was the right move.
so an update that might clarify some of my hesitation about my job next year:
i got a call from my new/old head teacher this morning already (the first day of summer holidays!). apparently class allocations finally came out on wednesday for teaching staff, and it got out that i was getting a year 11 class while others are not. that's maybe the most significant allocation, because schools avoid switching teachers midway through the 11/12 course; it's a bit of safety and a vote of confidence. one of my colleagues (and good friends!) apparently flipped out about this to the extent that they bailed early and skipped the christmas lunch...
funnily enough, this same thing happened to me a couple of years back and i'd like to think i dealt with it professionally. it was also part of the pretext of my return that i'd be able to get experience with the new 11/12 syllabus, which i missed in its first year because i had to take a contract at another school.
i'm between a rock and a hard place and my contract hasn't even started yet. i know my HT got me back because i'm loyal, and a good worker bee/obliging pawn. probably she gives a shit about me personally and my situation. on the other hand, i know it's perceived that i'm disrupting the order of things by jumping back in and getting the privileged spot when faculty pecking order is so sacred...

Had a card member threaten to sue us over billing cycle dates. Had to explain to her what cycle dates are and she said we were lying to consumers and not putting that info on statements so I had to show her where it was very blatantly printed on her statement and then she said it was printed tiny.
It was amusing.

I always enjoy when clients get upset about a thing that they would have known about if they had read the notification in the first place, and then complain about how they weren't notified about that thing
New Owner took us all out to lunch today after he dropped off the main part of our project. We had a great bonding experience, and everyone had fun. Composite Man and Metalworker want to work Wednesday, so the three of us are coming in to do some final work on the last parts of the project and work out some orders that have lagged.
Did a small AAR with New Owner in the afternoon, and it was a wonderful conversation where we both admitted fault and discussed the future. Hilariously New Owner finally agreed about Old Owner. Today we marked up the final product, and only one of the drawings we were supplied with was within 90%, the rest were grossly different than how he actually put it together. We also discovered $200 worth of materials (and probably $50 in labor) that went unused because Old Owner had been wrong on his initial drawings to a gross degree. New Owner told me he followed Old Owner around yesterday and asked questions, and he noticed that the answers were always wishy-washy and never matched what ended up being done.
It's all just so crazy.
I'm done with the man, he set me up to fail, threw me under the bus, and made my team feel like shit and stress out.
