Saturday Morning Blues turn into Sunday night nightmares.
(Disclaimer: these conversations may or may not have happened. It could all be a creation of my imagination)
Henry: Loren didn't show up to work this morning. I'm already running on double time.
Phil: Oh really? Was it his day to work today?
Henry: Yeah. I already spoke with Rezin. I keep trying to call Loren
and he won't answer his phone. I'm already running on 12 hours
and I'm going into double time.
Phil: Dang d00d.
Henry: Rezin says, since you trained Loren and you signed off for him
checking the schedule, then you can either voulenteer to come in, or he
can force you to come in.
Phil: Excuse me?
Henry: He said if you have any questions, to transfer you to him.
Phil: Then transfer me.
Henry: Okay, hold on.Phil: Rezin.
Rezin: Since you signed off for Loren's schedule training, you are responsible for him being there.
Phil: Rezin, You were there when I trained him on the schedule. It's his responsibliltiy.
Rezin: Well, what do you want me to do? I can't come in. I have ... (reasons).
Phil: Well, it's not like I don't have anything going on today, just
because it's Saturday. I've got other people scheduled today. I've got
others depending on me too...
(silence)
Phil: You know what?! Since Loren is "my responsiblilty" I will go in today.
Rezin: Thanks man.(20 minutes later)
Henry: Don't come in, Loren's on his way.
Phil: Geeze. Okay, have him call me when he gets in.
Henry: Okay.Sunday Night night mare...I'm at work, I'm going through my lunch
pail to grab some money. Another person parked near me reaches
into my pail and grabs a roll of 20's.Phil: What do you think you're doing?
Man: What does it look like?
Phil: ??! Give me my money back!
Man: No.
(Man reaches into his truck and pulls out a pistol)
Phil: Forget it. I don't care. (walks away shaken up... decides to go
back and get his keys from his lunch pail but they are not in there.
The man is lauging in the back of his truck.)
Phil: Where's my car keys?
Man: Why do you have a blanket in your car?
Phil: Did you take my keys?
Building manager: Your car got towed. It was here over 3 days.
Phil: Are you kidding me?! it I just got here 3 hours ago.
Building manager: Oh those guys over there told me it was here for 3 days.
Phil: This is rediculous. Who do they think they are?! (Begins to walk
towards the man with the gun fists clenched eyes set... Phil wakes up)--------------------------------------------------------------------
I think this dream is telling me that I'm at work in a helpless
situation. My supervisor is a loose cannon and He's holding all
the power. He can use it to torture me if he wants to. I have to submit
to it... Or do I?~Oneazn2nv

wow.. just because you sign off on a schedule does not mean you're responsible for everyone's ability to show up. I'd hate to be in your shoes. I hope you get tons more free tickets to Great America if you have to deal with that.
