maderrSo the boss was in tonight, and after lecturing everyone on this and that about the store, he wanders up to the front of the store to "check on things." So begins the mutual 'ego stroking' b/t the boss and two of his workers. He made a comment about how smoothly the store was running, and so began the strokefest. To hear them tell it everything female in the store is purely decorative. Nevermind that it took all three of them to do a job that I can do solo, or that while they were stroking Becca was running the store even though she wasn't the manager that night. Neither was I, but nevertheless I was still picking up his (C's, who was the manager tonight) slack.
I know I must sound like a man hater or something, but I'm not. But I get sick of doing all the work and doing it at least twice as well only to have the boss come in and promptly ignore all my efforts. Without the HM and the assistants that acutally work (all female) that store would have bombed a long time ago. But we're not part of the Penis Club, so clearly we don't count.

Derrick is speaking to me again, though, so this meeting of the Penis Club must have concluded sometime over the weekend.

I guess they got together and stroked one another 'egos' so now they feel masculine and in charge and the mean ol' girl's email can't hur them anymore. /bitchiness.

*dies laughing again* oh god, I could just see them having a little meeting in the bathroom, flipping open handbooks and bitching about some point of order...my imagination needs an off switch. "First order of businees, the matter of Angela Drake offending Derrick. The handbook recommends...."
