Tuesday April 10th 2012

Work was dreadful today. Jane stuck me on dishwasher duty as I was late. Alison was feeling faint when I got up so I couldn’t very well leave her alone. I managed to get some food down her, followed by a couple of pints of water, and she felt much better. I didn’t want to have an argument, but she would have been fine if she’d eaten breakfast.

Jane said she wasn’t prepared to let me have more time off than any of the others. She said this despite me only being twenty minutes late and Boris regularly taking an hour to sit down in the toilet and talk to whoever is unlucky enough to use the cubicle next to him. It’s got silly, lately, too; last time I was in there he started showing me pictures from the car magazine he was reading under the partition wall.

I didn’t say anything to her, but I’m starting to get a little bit annoyed with Jane. I think it’s because I have my own ideas and am not a complete moron, like most people she’s ever managed, that she doesn’t like me. I’ve had managers like that before. They have little qualification other than a name badge that says ‘manager’, they’re completely unpredictable in mood, and they just like telling others what to do. It just depends on the day as to whether it’s done politely or not.

I spent the rest of the day at the dishwasher, ignoring everyone in the kitchen and thinking about what I could make Alison for tea that wouldn’t set her off. I finally decided on salad as it was a hot day. Then, when Jane had gone off for what she called a managers’ meeting (but we all know it’s an appointment at the hairdressers) I plated up a couple of ham salads and put them in my bag. It’s not stealing, as we all do it and everyone is OK with it.
