In this continuing best buy saga, I have to sadly report that it has taken a turn for hell. When I came in, my boss asked me if I wanted to work after the orientation was over. I said sure, because I was hired into the game department, and I could definatley stay till 9 30 selling video games.
So about 3 hours worth of movies and filling out forms, and then it was time for me to work. I worked up a schedule for the week with the schedule guy, and everything seemed smooth. I was working 25 hours this week. 3 days! 25 hours! yesh! I could talk about video games and get paid for it for 25 hours!
or so I thought.
I overhear that I am working in " Merch". I think Merch=Merchandise = sales = the job I was hired for!
Oh, How wrong i was.
Apparently, Merch Is the unloading of (heavy) boxes off of a truck. Then On to a crate. The off the crate. then on to a shelf.
Now, for those of you who do not know me, I am not of the weightlifting variety. i have Boy muscles. I can lift stuff but not without strain to my body. Now this is pure grade See How It Tastes. ( Points if you get the joke)
needles to say, I was pissed. However, my boss was gone. So I just had to do this job I was not hired to do.
Now don't get me wrong- I understand that in a job sometimes you have to do other things. However, this is my job- not a temporary, one-day- thing. When I was hired, I never once heard the word " carry", "Merch", "truck", or F*cking heavy plasma tv. I was told that I was going to be selling games. Otherwise I wouldn't have accepted the job. If they told me " the only position we have open is to load boxes on and off a truck", I would have shook his hand and walked away. The tricked me into doing this.
However, there is hope. Hope in a man named don.
Don is a strong, strong man. He, if given the chance, could probably lift the truck and let all the boxes slide into the (non-air conditioned) warehouse. Our boss, in all her wisdom, is putting him out on the sales floor. Where I want to go! He doesn't want to go. So, tommorow we are all gonna talk to her. Hopefully by this time tommorow, I can let you guys know the outcome.
If It doesn't get resolved, I'll leave.

take this job and shove it
