the GM at my work is so cool. she just called to ask if i wanted to take the day off. i said i wouild prefer not to. she then said that if i want to come in thats fine, but that if i take the day off, she wont write me up for missing my shift yesterday. needless to say, im staying ive got the day off.
getting the day off today, and not getting in trouble for ****ing up yesterday...... cant complain about that.
i just cant **** up again or ill lose my job. so im hooking up another alarm clock in my room for when i have day shifts.

I had a job where I had to be at work by 4:45 am for awhile, I used a watch, cel phone and 2 alarm clocks. I got so paranoid that after a couple months I'd automatically wake up a couple minutes before my alarm went off.

Although I agree, some businesses are ****ed up about scheduling.
