I know that some people consider the word "hate" to be a strong word....well, the matter of the fact is that I have other strong words to use towards my feelings for the owners of the company I work for, but they wouldn't be allowed on the website.

I get in to work this morning about half hour late because of the crappy winter weather and I come to find out that with just about 2 weeks to go before Christmas, the company owner and his two sons decide to be open the day after Christmas! Those sons of female dogs!

I know that this wouldn't have been a problem had they not passed out company calendars to all the store branches and hundreds and hundreds of their customers at the start of the year in January that clearly stated that we would be closed for December 25th and 26th.

Now, more then half of the people that work for the company have plans set up, many of them (including myself) will be out of town on the 26th because we were not expected to be at work that Friday....

What a bunch of BS, if you ask me. I know for a fact that the owner and his two sons are not going to be coming in that Friday the 26th, but they expect their employees to cancel all their holiday plans because at the last second they decided to be open all because our competitor will be open for part of the day on the 26th.

Now, what sense does it make to have the company open for business if we've sent out hundreds and hundreds of calendars to our customers that clearly state we are CLOSED on December 26th?

What a bunch of dumb, stupid arsed mother fers....out of the 12 people (not counting the owner and his two sons) that work at the branch I'm at, 8 of us will be out of town because we all made plans on the fact that we were closed on the 26th of December. Now the owners expect some of us that are going to be out of town (some flying and some driving) to cancel our plans so we can work a day that our customers think we're closed. These owners are dumb as hell! Dumb, dumber and dumbest! Damnit, I'm pissed!
