After graduation, Shelly and I agreed that it would be in my best interest if I found a part time job somewhere to help put some money in my pocket. So I started searching for something but nothing had my interest. I knew this decision would head down a road that I probably would'nt like but somethimes you just have to do what you have to do... right? Well, long story short, I landed a part time job at Walgreens. Yeah the drug store. After interviewing, I quickly found out that a high position an Walgreens ( manager, assistant manager) paid really, really good. There is just one problem. Walgreens is a retail store. And bunny doesn't care for retail! At all!!!
Back to my first few sentences, I was saying that I needed to make a little money just to help ends meet but fortunately, I started landing several freelance jobs and even winded up getting another part time job editing wedding videos. Now editing weddings... I loved. So I had a job that I hated and one that I loved. I'll go ahead and spare your brain cells so you don't have to think about it but the " one I loved" job won.
Basically what I'm saying is this. I despise people with their nasty, no good, rotten attitudes. I knew Walgreens was a retail store but I also knew that I needed to work. So when I started getting old ladies (you heard right) tell me they were gonna bash my face in cause some stupid coupon would'nt work, I started counting down my days. There was no way on this earth that I was going to put up with that. Then I started getting some attitude from one of the employees. By now I had my limit on attitudes. Long story short, we had a little "come to Jesus" meeting and we got that squared away really quick. Then I put in for another store and they just kept dragging their feet on the grand opening. At this point in my Walgreens career, I hated that place so bad that I could spit bullets. I'm not kidding either. I've never seen such a freakin crowd in all my life. Okay... I need to tone it down because I'm getting mad just typing this out.
The printer never ran worth a crap and when it broke down... the doggone managers didn't even know what to do. Isn't that why your the freaking manager??? Stupid morons... seriously, I need to cut this off. I steaming already!
Needless to say I ended my stupid Walgreens career. See here is the deal. Even though I hated every minute of it, I'm the person that understands what a commitment is. I'll do whatever it takes to make ends meet. Even if I hate what I'm doing.
All the blessing goes to my wife cause she gave me her blessing to quit and pursue something else. I'm sure I'll shop at the occasional Walgreens since people and good leadership is what makes a good working environment, not the store.
So... here is my chose words to that stupid place where I worked.
I'm better than you and I'm better than the bullcrap you put me into. You never could give me a straight answer on anything, and for that, I wiped my the dust off my feet when I walked out your door for the last time.
You bunch of freaking morons!
