rebecky_moJust got home from an 8 hour shift; which woulodn't be so bad, if weren't supposed to be a simple 4-hour shift.
The girl who was supposed to come in after me called in an hour after I came in and said she couldn't come in. Apparantly her kid was sick and she hadn't slept in three days and was dizzy, blah blah blah. Anyway, I couldn't find anyone to cover; therefore I was stuck taking and extra 4 hours.
Now, maybe her kid was sick. I don't know; she's used that same reasoning before. But the fact that she was so quick to justify herself with the long, drawn out explaination kinda made me wonder. And she could have called sooner, since she clearly knew how tired she was an hour beforehand (when a higher-up was actually around and available to talk) to save me scrambling to phone people.
Not to mention the fact that it's the Saturday of the long weekend.
Yeah-huh.
Why is it that that youngest worker of the department seems to be the most mature and reliable? Why don't I ever throw the shit at the fan and watch as everyone else scurries to clean it up?
Damn my parents for raising me better than that.
