Ballocking from the manager...

It was Sunday 1st September...

Work usually starts at 12pm on Sunday but because it was the first day of the new reg plates for cars, everyone came into work early. As my colleagues were very busy with delivering cars to their clients on a tight schedule...I was left to do odds and ends such as greeting customers and taking them out for test drives.

A couple came into the showroom and wanted to test drive a Seat Ibiza....my mentor told me to grab the company's trade plates and the keys for the requested car. So off I went to grab both items...I've been here for just over a month and know pretty much where things are or where they should be...however...I not able to find the trade plates...

What happened earlier was another colleague of mine had done a test drive with a customer and left the trade plates in that car...long story short, he didn't put the keys back onto the board where they're usually kept, I couldn't find them, my manager gave me a ballocking for not being able to find the keys and for making customers wait longer than necessary...That colleague didn't even own up to anything, made me felt like a real incompetent douche.

Which day...????

I am sounding more like a "quiter" with each passing hour! My current employer needed to take his "lil princesses" back to China for "Ching Ming" and basically left me working for 2 weeks straight WITHOUT informing me of the following: - Time off during his absence? - Time off at all when he comes back? - Extra pay? Here I am after two days of him buggering off learning this, I WILL be working 2 weeks straight without a day off...there has been no discussion of reimbursing my days off that I should of had...and worse of all, DEFINITELY no mention of paying me extra for the EXTRA days off! I have been working my hands raw and body aches yet things seems to never end! 2nd day, 12 more to go......no, that is INCORRECT!!! My last day of was 26th March...its now the 9th...its my 14th consecutive day of working and I am starting to lose my mind! ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HURRAY BACK YOU BUM HOLE!!!!! 7 more days till my "theo...

Just ranting!

WHO THE HELL GAVE THAT WOMAN THE "BIRTH RIGHT" TO HAVE ME TAXI HER AROUND AND EXPECT ME TO JUST AGREE?!?!?! SCREW YOU TO HELL AND TO THE NEW AREA WHERE THEY ARE MAKING IT ESPECIALLY FOR YOU YOU STUPID VA***A COW!!!! OK that had to come out, here's the story, throughout this week so far, my employer's wife who is looking after the work place in his absence has used a Chinese curse word on me several times. This curse word itself curses you to basically trip over and bust your face. It sounds lame translated into English but if you are Chinese and know which word I am referring to, then you know my anger, I can take it as a joke every once in a while but when you use that consistently,  you are testing my patients on how long I can withhold from punching that face of yours! So, its 12:46am now in UK, just over 2 hours ago, I was finishing up at work, Lisa (Boss' wife) comes strolling along and says "Hakuren, you busy tomorrow morning? I need a life up t...

Annoyingly angry...

So today I went to work as usual...whilst minding my own business, the manager comes up to me and asks if I'm up for a task. A task that requires me to drive approximately 103 miles from work to another one of our branches in Kilmarnock. Without hesitation, I agreed...I took over a Seat Ibiza Toca, metallic blue...it was a good car to drive. It doesn't do sporty but still not bad on the motorway...think i must of averaged about 50 miles to the gallon. Upon arrival, I was given a Citroen Dispatch Van to return to my original branch where one of my colleagues was expecting to sell it. So, in it I went, drove it a fuelling station, to then proceed to the closest Burger King! :) (even i need to eat, and it took a little over one and a half hours to go one way!) Shortly upon returning to my work with the van in perfect working order...the customer bought it! Kinda makes me feel good to know my efforts wasn't wasted and the buyer liked it that much! Once home, i was pretty hu...
