Unleash the Fury of Hurricane Amy

Sometimes, there is one event that causes ripple effects that reaches every single corner of the universe. Put this into the store's perspective, my letter of resignation was that one event.

They know they are losing their greatest asset and will be potientially hurt upon my departure because I do everything in that store. One of my co-workers spent an hour and a half talking to Kathie last night. I know some of it was about me. What they might not understand is that Kathie is not the entire reason behind my leaving them. If they want to think that though, they can. Dee knows, that's all that matters. I made it out to sound like Kathie was the reason also, but I think Dee knew that it was coming with all of my other jobs and all. She told Kelly as such. There might be others who follow me, that's fine. And this might cause tension at the store for a short time, and that's fine too. If my leaving and their losing me forces open the gates of communication between the three of them, then I'm glad I did that. If my leaving and their losing me forces change both by them as managers and by associates as workers, then I'm glad I did too. Perhaps by my doing this it will prevent a future employee by feeling the same way as I do right now - or did shortly before I gave my two weeks. I'm the unpraised hero in this situation - yay for me. And I don't want recognition for it, but the tide has turned and the store is getting nasty. I did that. But after the storm passes out next Friday, they will all be better colleagues because of it.

That which does not kill us makes us stronger.

In other news, I took my seven hour shift yesterday and demonstrated the worst showing of work ethic ever. I personally don't know how some of the workers there can be so lazy. If I felt bad about it, it was only because Kelly was the closing manager and I hated doing that to her. I even told Kelly that if I wasn't such a slacker everything would have been done by now. She laughed. And I told Denise, hey, they can't fire me! ha.

Five days of having the upper hand - let the good times roll!
