Hey guys, just wanted to tell you what happened today. It will kind of affect a few of you...
I have the day off and was planning on doing a bunch of stuff, going to church, ect. Well before I woke up, my work called. 'Wolfie' had called (
scroll down on this topic until you see a long post I wrote to see who I am talking about. It starts with "Sorry for bringing up an old topic, but....") asking me to work a 9 hour day today. I have to work a 9 hour day tomorrow too (with him for most of my worktime too) so when Mom came home she said "Oh you had a missed call from work."
I said, "I really don't want to go in today.", and she said alright. I did a few chores and found out that he called three more times within the next few hours. Finally I called back and got one of my coworkers who is a nice guy, who said that Wolfie was at lunch. I told my friend to say that I'd be busy for the rest of the day (he said that one of my other coworkers called in sick today).
I've been working with this company for about 5 years, and quite literally 99% of the time when they call, I'll come in. There were only a few circumstances when I would say no. So they see me as dependable.
One of the few times I said no was Wolfie calling a while back, and he got infuriated with me that I wouldn't come in on my off day. "This is bull****! Why do I have to deal with this ****!", he said on the phone. And as my mom has told me before, "It's okay to say no, it's your off day"
Well anyway, today my mom was pretty appalled that he called our house four times.
