More work shit; seems that’s all I write about these days; anyway today at 4:03pm, the catering manager spotted my mobile phone on the top shelf in the potwash; and proceeded to lecture me about having the phone in the store, which apparently isn’t allowed, but it doesn’t say anything in the employee handbook or contract of employment about that. She threatened to confiscate the phone if she found it on my possession again in the store. The stupid thing is that the mobile wasn’t even switched on; I only use it for the time during lunch. It should be left in my locker, which I don’t have, fuck am I paying £4 for a locker key, if they want us to keep our personal belongings in a locker then they should provide us with a locker for free. So tomorrow I will leave my mobile home, and if I am late back from lunch, tuff shit; it’s not my fault that I don’t know what the time is. I know that I use my phone as a music player as well, but that’s not a problem, I’ll take the mp3 player to work instead. I am not worried about missing calls, I never answer them when I do get calls at work, so that wont matter, the phone will just log the call and I can call them back later when I get home. Apparently I am not allowed to carry money in my pockets either, the only thing I am allowed to have in my possession is my keys. Something that springs to mind is what SSMMDD commented on about my job “do you work in a prison?” – I am starting to think that I do, the amount of petty rules and regulations in that place is astonishing, in fact I think that a prison would be more flexible!
