I’ve been out of work since 9/13/2009, I Worked for a place called sam’s club in a town called Vacaville  in the state of California, I can’t say I hated working there, but I do know that place could do with a little bit of work, The place was just full of gossip, what inspired me to write about this is a movie I have had the pleasure to see recently, I’m talking about toy story 3. but enough about that, I’ll just let you know a few things about that place so you can get an Idea of how work was there then I’ll get into how unemployment has been for a year,  First off, they would make me do work that wasn’t in my job description, They had me helping out in the bakery,pushing carts, pulling Items helping at the front end and even working cafe, they also had me as the person who would greet everyone on there way in, you could say I had to do it all, but my pay rate would never change or reflect that sort of thing, and When I would mess up In any of these places they would still write me up despite a lack of training, or liability.

My job was to sale cigarettes, “Push” credit cards on people who couldn’t afford them, and push the premium accounts on to people who didn’t need them, heck that place had a heck of a mission statement, but when it came to the people that actually did the work there was flaws within the ranks, this one “C.O.S” named cassandra had personal issues with me, for some reason because I was the most efficient at my job I was the one who would get picked on, I would get raises at lower rates, and  they even had the nerve to put eveyone else in my department to full time, but me… 

I was lucky they worked me like a mule because by that time it was over stepping the law and they had to, but they took there time, you know how wal mart and sams club always seems to have a memory made of butter,  so I would think and sometimes even become depressed at the fact that I was the best, I brought the best numbers, did everything by the books, even had the best smile, and I can back that up, the people I worked with were a troll of a woman, and a man who looks like he’s been chewing shit all his life……. 

anyways, After working there for two years I found out why I wasn’t getting ahead, it’s simple, I wasn’t fucking cassandra like everyone else, Or I wasn’t fucking any of my other “boss” people, 

that or socializing with them outside of work, I mean It makes sense, that place ran on high school politics, and it didn’t take much to find out who was fucking who, that place was sick, nothing but people looking out for themselves and those who got there jollys off,  in the end I was plotted against, you can tell when they would start trying to clean house, I’m not stupid, all of a sudden every one starts getting written up? 

they had me on a fucking thing where if I fucked up one more time I would get fired for a whole year, think about that, then maybe a month after, I got fired, because I couldn’t stop fucking up… 

that makes perfect sense, I worked in the back of the store, people who would leave my line and would have “extra” items in there cart had them because they would try and steal, it’s simple… but they didn’t see it that way, and it was my fault, even though I was the only one who would physically move and scan every item from one basket to another.. so I got fired…. and they replaced me like I was a nobody…. 

and I realized I was unemployed,  

nothing to do 

no money to be spent on my bills….  just alone.. bah…. I’ll write about my unemployment in another blog, I have to go look for work…
