#warehouse life

[deepermadness]

I still think back to earlier this year when I was at work and one of the third party contractors who does the warehouse accuracy checks stopped me to ask me a personal question.

He'd noticed that I was pretty particular about how I picked trays and boxes. Very neat, always with the label facing outwards so it could be scanned. He said I seemed quite book smart as well. I was always full of facts on highly specialised interests. He said he'd worked out what I was.

I could already feel the dread coming.

"Yeah, I reckon you're one of *those* guys. Don't worry, there's nothing wrong with it. You can't help being born an aquarius."

A starsign. I got diagnosed as aquarius.

Quote #57

I need that forklift certified pussy

[sleepy-achilles]

Context before I start!

I have a work best friend who happens to be bestfriends with my brother in law.

He's 10 years younger than my mother making him a lot older than me.

He's tall as fuck and I'm not short but nexted to him I am.

We have a coworker who has a photo of all of us with our names under it which she'd assign nicknames to us all to help her learn and remeber our names. Her first language isn't English.

Her daughter helped her and decided to dub me sunshine and my friend sunshine protector.

Because of the fact I'm the youngest person in that place and he's one of the oldest and we are very close, our more immature coworkers have taken a liking to this and started teasing us, mainly me, about our friendship. The last one was big daddy and his twink.

I work with dicks.

Context over.

I had the biggest y/n moment today.

So as I said I'm currently on afternoons. Sunshine protector has been on nights. He was supposed to be gone for 2 weeks and it's ended up being 4. We haven't seen each other properly in 3 weeks.

I'm working away, music playing in my earphones, when a arm is suddenly wrapped around my waist and my wire is pulled, pulling my headphones out.

Before I can even speak I'm hearing laughter and a voice.

'You didnt tell me you were on afternoons! I didn't believe them when they told me my kid was here! You know how badly I've been missing you'

Stunned.

Even I have my gay awakening moments and most of the time they end up with straight guys like him. Which sucks ass.

And the fact I know his misses makes it awkward.

Our coworkers were loving it, shouting and whooping at us as sunshine protector rambled on about how much he missed seeing me and talking to me.

The coworker on the same shift as me, we were in separate rooms the whole night which was lovely and peaceful, was nonstop teasing me about it as we left, claiming I turn a beautiful red colour.

I've found warehouses always have that one guy the other guys either hate or love to act gay towards. In my last jobs I always knew the guy, never personally took part as I've always been the young one who also got teased but for once in my life I am that guy.

Downside is I'm not straight.

So it's pretty much sucky to know they all are and I wouldn't even have a hint of a chance.

Work this weekend has been absolutely terrible on just about every side, but today (the one day I work by myself for an entire airplane engine repair shop) has been horrendous. Got tasked with locating 217 parts for an engine that needed them (check that again, 217 little fucking parts), then have been asked to find another 8 parts that I have to go through a process to give from one engine to another, then had a part come up missing that I still cannot find, and then keeping up with the floor where I move around parts that are being worked on to locations around the entire plant, I'm beat and I'm pissy and I can't wait to be done with here next weekend.

if twit is gone, i will have to use a blog like a real blog.

so anyway,

im a warehouse manager now and i got an employee who i feel like im in an abusive relationship with

he out of nowhere said "so some fat, ugly Samoan man won a miss america pagent and he identifies as a woman and you KNOW no one believes that shit!" and that caught my ear and made me stop and ask him why he brought that up cuz there was just no relation to what we were doing

he got defensive and when i asked him to not talk about things like that (cuz we just hired a new guy we dont know his opinions and also its not allowed int he work place!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) the moterhfucker yelled at me and told me that IM "the problem and silencing" his opinions

i asked him to not use combative language and then he said "YOURE using combative language!!!" like a toddler yelling at his mom

i felt like i was on fox news or something, dude listened to so much joe rogan, he just melted in front of my eyes?

i was especially 'triggered' because my recently viral-on-reddit-infamous-homeless-attacking-ex-boss deany boy used to go on long, endless, anti trans rants when i was the only one working with him and i waslike what the fuck!!!!!!!!!! the fuck you care so cuking much about trans people in everything, shut up you old bastard dean

your donuts made my stomach hurt and you keep cream cheese in the fridge so long it turns green and when i went to throw it out, you told me to wipe off the green mold and put it back. you also keep the raw bacon on the top of the fridge of everything definitely not raw. you reuse gravy for days on end to the point i think theres weeks old gravy still being eaten. your wife broke 3 crock pots out of anger for some mundane thing and acted like a high school mean girl when she was in charge and made us remop a floor up to like 4 times because she didnt like how there was a "sheen" on the floor.

anyway

my employee just fucuking blew up at me and then he walked out and didnt return for 3 hours, i was at the point of thinking "well ok, guess he actually just quit?"

He returned and didnt talk to me and left without a word. The next day he called out and only said: "Sick. Out. Indefinitely."

What the hell does indefinitely mean after a blow up?

Poor choice of words or a bad way to vaguely quit?

i told HR and made them call him after he didnt text or show up the next day

i was ready to move on and already got an interview set up to fill in when we are already in crisis mode at work lol

then the bastard texts me at 5 when im about to go home and he is furious that HR was calling him. he said "if you have a problem you say it to my face, im coming in tomorrow sick or not"

i felt threatened and scared because when he gets mad, he gets mad and testosterone fueled rage and i dont know if he would get physical

he also was like "am i supposed to be looking for another job!?"

i was so scared of his reaction i was thankfully able to call hr and have her walk me thru how to text this maniac back

i really dont want to work with him ESPECIALLY now

but somehow the company wont fire anyone so this behavior is still cool and no one has balls, i dont have balls and guess i have to continue workingand managing a manchild who is going to be set off at anything

i also have to somehow figure out how to get a meeting with him, me and HR without it sounding liek an interogation because he is so easily defensive

we were cool and i have even been to his house and met his wife and had beers with him and another manager and then it felt like in one instance it just got all washed away because he wanted to rant about trans people?????????

i am so confused!

i also have thrown up soooooooo much this past year from stress, jfc. im finally losing weight but from a very very bad reason and very very unhealthy way that is painful aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

still dont know whats gonna happen since this dude is planning on coming back tomorrow and i have an interview w someone we meant to replace him after he was MIA

Also, Jinshi in "How to Buy Out a Contract" was hilarious.

Do you think he's prettier than me

I was contemplating your murder but my future wife cat thinks you'll make a good brother in law so I'll let you live

My future wife cat trusts you, so I trust you. Don't fuck it up.

Have some money to leave my future wife alone forever go marry her sister

Did you see that Gaoshun? I did a socializing. Do you think Maomao will be proud of me?

Also Lihaku is precious. What an adorable golden retriever of a man. He went from absolute disdain at Maomao when she approached him for an escort to being like "help me little sister, I'm in love".

Prompt 283

Now Jason would like it known that there was no mpreg situation going on. He isn’t even sure where people got that idea in the first place. Sure, he had taken a few Cores from the goons-in-white who had dared to set up in his turf. 

And sure maybe the excess energy from the pit (no wonder he’d been so irritable) was what said baby halfas (Okay, so they’re half human? Alright) had used to reform. And maybe the oldest is visibly less than a year old. 

But there Was No Mpreg Situation! He is this close to shooting someone! It was annoying (and slightly amusing) when it was just his goons, but now the Bats have seemingly got it in their heads! Dear Gotham it’s a good thing he’s not planning on like, ever revealing who he is because he would never be able to live this rumor down. 

[Winged Ghosts Au too, that seems to be getting lost in reblogs when it's just in the tags lol]

on halloween some trick or treaters accidentally wander into the trap warehouse. thankfully, the kids assume its some sort of haunted house, and are given werther’s by a very confused john

hey i follow you and i keep seeing posts about gansey and idk who he is but. every sentence i hear about him is fucking bonkers i refuse to believe hes real. what do you mean "reenacting his death" or "all his friends are trees or tree adjacent"?????????? this can not be a guy anyone has even conceptualized.

these two things only barely scratch the surface of gansey, the light of my life. he's a sad deeply polyamorous boy with turbo autism who's built from the corpse of a terrifying eldritch entity-turned-forest & his mother is a billionaire republican politician. i'm too high to do a deep dive into gansey help he's just. everything. he is everything. Everything To Me

GANSEY LOVERS ASSEMBLE TELL ANON MORE INSANE THINGS ABOUT THE BOY.

things i think about a lot also include how chip is the one out of albatrio with a no-kill rule. out of the honourable god-chosen paladin and the respected ex-navy ferin and the fucking bastard pirate it's the latter that refuses to take a life. there's something unexpectedly poignant about that.

How fucking stupid do you think Hoffman felt when it was his turn to record the tapes and move Billy's mouth in sync with the audio

I can't wait to be out of this job in a couple weeks and in to a new one.

Searching an entire plant the size of like a football field and a half for 3 single blades that collectively cost about $12,000. Until they're found, this is my day for the next 10 hours, and I started looking for them at 5AM.

[infinitystoner]

still in shock over the fact I saw the thin dark duke himself in the Scottish play tonight
