My rant of the day..

Ugh okay so I had to go back to work today after being off for three days in a row. I really wasn't looking forward to it but I went in anyways and was just going to try to make the best of it. Well I get there and clock in and everything and everyone seems to be in a decent mood. At about 4:30 this one guy I worked with asked me to cook cheesy bread cuz he wanted some and he knows I like it to. Well, we aren't supposed to cook between 5-7, but I figured it would be ok since it was 4:30. Both the managers got mad about it, but the main manager didnt really seem too mad. The assistant manager however decided today would be her day to throw a fit about every little thing. She went on and on and on about why did I cook it cuz we aren't supposed to cook between 5-7 and I know better than that and it's the main manager's rule not hers. I told her the guy at work had asked me to make it and since it was 4:30 I figured it was okay. And she was like "well look at what time it is now, and no one asked!" and I go "I don't know what time it is now" and she was like "it's 5:00" (it wasn't really, it was like 10 mins til 5 but whatever). I just ignored her and ate it along with everyone else that was eating. What's funny is I asked the others if they wanted some but they all said no but then after I cooked it and took it out of the oven they saw how good it looks (everyone loves the way I cook the cheesy bread cuz I put extra cheese on it and I cook it long enough so that it's done, but it's soft) and they said it smelled good so they all ate on it too. Well anyways, I kept trying to be friendly towards the assistant manager all through the work day but she just wouldnt even really talk and I asked her why and she goes "I don't have anything nice to say" so I just walked off and ignored it..well a little later she comes up I'm saucing a pizza and she goes "your saucing technique is shitty" and I didnt hear her at first so I was like "what?" and she repeated it. Again, I just ignored her, but I was thinking "no one has ever complained about it before and what does it matter how I do it as long as I get it done, it's done right, and in a timely manner?" whatever. I am over the job. I want out of there sooooo bad. She used to be the cool manager that everyone liked but now she has just become the manager that is always in a bad mood and always has something to complain about. She just acted like a jerk all night and I just wish she would quit or something. Oh well. I am trying to get a job at the company my sister and brother work for, and if I get the job, it will be awesome cuz I will make about double what I'm making now, I'll get insurance, I'll have paid vacations, holiday pay, sick pay, and I won't be in the retail or food business! I am going to have to get a whole new wardrobe for work though, but I don't mind. But to get the job I just have to give my brother my resume and he will give it to someone who will look over it and decide if I should have an interview or not and then if the person thinks I should have an interview that person will tell someone to give me one and I'll go in for an interview and I'll have to take some sort of simple test and if I do well during the interview and on the simple test, they will pay me to take this class that lasts for like two months that will teach me how to do my job and things like that, and after the class is over I have to take a test. If I pass the final test, I will be given a job there. My plan is to live with my sister or grandmother temporarily until I have enough money to get an apartment, and once I have enough money to get a small apartment, I'll get one. I figure that worse comes to worse and I don't pass the final test, I am just going to look for a different job near where my sister lives and save up money until I can get an apartment and then move into an apartment because eventually my mom plans on moving to someplace near where my sister lives and I don't want to come back to where I live at this moment only to later move back near my sister. I would rather just go ahead and stay with my sister for a bit until I can get enough money to get a small apartment. The only thing is I don't know about school and I'm really not worried about school. I figure I can just take online classes only and just get a general associates for now and then later on get a bachelor's degree in social work to have as a back up. If I get hired on at the company my sister and brother work at and I like the job then I am probably not going to pursue a career in social work at that moment in time because the company I would work at pays pretty well and there's a lot of room to grow in the company, and the longer I am there and the higher up the ladder (I suppose you could say) I get, the better my wages. Either way, I intend to move hopefully within the next six months. I just have to see how things go. For now, I am staying at my current job and hating every minute of it, but I am dealing with it because I don't want to quit until I have another job and I am going to see if I am able to get in at the company my brother and sister work for before I do anything else concerning a new job.
