JFC the restaurant manager is dumber than a bag of hammers.

It's not a big deal, fortunately but JFC. I think I mentioned he wanted me to do an "event" a few weeks ago as a first year anniversary of getting our brewing license. The "event" was me going to the tables of people who'd ordered my beer and asking them if they wanted to talk about it. It was supremely uncomfortable like I told him it would be weeks before. I told him they should set me up at the table or bar, maybe with a sign, and let customers know they could come meet the brewer if they wanted. After going with the me approaching them and it not really going well, he agreed.

Yesterday we talked about me coming in at noon. I'd do some cleaning and he'd do the set-up so customers could come talk to me. I come in and he's not in. Turns out it's his day off. I text him asking him what I'm suppose to do. "Go talk to customers who order your beer.". Lol. No. gently caress that. Fortunately, it's no skin off my back. I didn't do any extra work or anything. But this guy is incapable of learning anything.

hello friend


last shift i noticed maybe 2 hours in that one of the burners on one of the stoves in the kitchen had been left on, the gas one. i was wiping down counters and wondered why i was so warm all of the sudden and then noticed a gentle flame.

i have done this before but in my private life. i mentioned it to the person i was working with but left it at that, it's not like there was a pot on the burner or whatever. the main reason i was concerned was because it's the gas stove and if you left it on, but not lit, you could fill the whole building with explosion.

the trick is i was working with the grumpy woman, and by telling her about it i am certain she will rag on the chefs about it far more effectively than i ever could. i am leveraging the qualities i dislike about her to my benefit.

there was also a very troubling event while i was off cause of covid and it's insanely spicy but there may be a lawsuit in the air, or something else bad.

eh whatever, we had a new resident who's son had power of attorney over him and brought him in because he was told his dads wife was quote unquote "killing him." it's rural up here so there's lots of gossip and apparently she's had about 3 husbands die on her, life insurance sorta thing. she was only allowing him to be on oxygen when she decided he needed it and prevented him from taking all his prescriptions. anyways when this guy came into the home there was a list of a few people who were not allowed to see him, and his now ex wife and basically a thug came in, attempted to get this guy to sign power of attorney over to the ex wife, and when this guys son showed up a fight occurred between him and the thug. police were called, and because the resident willingly signed himself out the cops were like "he's of sound mind nothing we can do" which is not incorrect necessarily but still. an incredibly hosed up thing. if this fella dies soon, and his son decides to take legal action against the home i think they are hosed.

this is the first time they've had to screen for specific visitors that are not allowed, and honestly so many residents are just abandoned when someone comes to visit the assumption is their intentions are good, but there's going to have to be some some sort of policy change or something, i don't know. i found out about it a day or so ago so i am still trying to figure out how i feel about it, and also realize i got the whole story second hand but i know the broad strokes are accurate.

All of the stress and physical demands finally caught up to me, so I'm taking today and tomorrow off as well. I might also be having a stupid allergy thing (so much hidden dust and cat fur) or a very mild cold. Regardless, not doing anything much more difficult than some dishes today.

Good on you for looking after yourself!

I do have issues with my boss but she generally has my back, especially when it comes to my health. I'm already on pretty much permanent modified work duty, so if I tell her I'm really really not doing well, she believes me (and I don't lie about it). She also tells me that I want to take a mental health day, then I should do so. It's a just a tiny bit of obfuscation to payroll (I had medical appointments all day is not true but also not a lie) and I'm sleeping in late!

Ugh, yeah, those days are horrible. It's as bad as suddenly realizing that tomorrow is Monday.
