Assholes Pt. 1

          Alright, this is my first blog ever so bear with my rant... I manage (not very well) a hotel here in Hot Springs, AR.  Now I have worked since I was 15 years old. My first job was as a dishwasher. I never called in sick. I had another job at a factory when I was older and I called in sick I think 3 times. Well after that job I was hired at an On the Border here in town. I worked happily for 7 months, and I called in sick one morning. When I came back to work, I was fired. I was fired for calling in sick. From that day forth, since the spring of '99, I have NEVER...I cannot stress this enough, NEVER called in sick to ANY job EVER. I know you dear reader must think, "Liar." But's it's true, when I was sick, I came in. After getting my ass beat, I came in. Granted I have been SENT home sick. I have NEVER called in.

   The point I am getting at, is why do people call in sick? Is your throat SO soar you cannot get up? Then how THE FUCK did you call in? And you think having a soar throat is bad?! I came in the next day after surgery. I come in with the flu, because I feel if I have to be sick, so should every other asshole I have to deal with. Har har? And what the hell is up with these people that call in and say, "Oh my brother was in the hospital, so I couldn't come in. And I wasn't feeling good. And my dog died." All in the same day you say huh? Man must be rough. Too bad someone else (ME) will have to cover your fucking shift. You just go ahead, stand by your brother who has a broken arm. Yeah go ahead. But what gets me is that they complain when their paycheck comes in. "Oh I ain't got enough money to payZ my rentZ." Oh really? So you were thinking about your rent while you were "sick." Guess that soar throat cost you more than a clinic's visit and the gas to get there.

    No I am not totally heartless. Your father is dying in the hospital? Go see him. Your dog or cat was run over? Go home and grieve. Your child is sick at home? Well take care of them. I'm sure these are all very "good" times to call in. But if your 20 year old son is sick at home, I'm quite sure the cocksucker can take care of himself! Your spouse isn't "feeling good?" Well I guess you can call them to tell them you're on lunch, coming home, or picking up something for them. But GODDAMNIT people, don't call in sick over minor shit! They always wonder why they get fired, don't advance, or get sick from drinking a drink I bring them....Er I mean not getting sick from the drink I brought them. It's because you are lazy, groaning, moaning, little weak asshole. STOP IT! You are bringing down the gene pool! For FUCK'S SAKE!

     So now I have to stay longer, ALREADY A 10 HOUR SHIFT, until I can find someone to come in. My kids are at home, waiting. They are out of school today. My wife works and so do I so we can have a house, and food. But the kids are out of school today, so now they might have to stay at home alone for a little while. (Not that I mind this, but the wife really doesn't like it.) But no, loser ass bitch that has a soar fucking throat can't come in today. BULLSHIT. She probably lives with her parents, or has some small rented crack house. Alright, I'm done with my rant. And my first blogging thing.

Welcome. I agree. I never called in sick until I had kids. In fact, I was off yesterday with a puking 4 year old. Trust me, I would have rather been at work.

I hear ya. In 14 years of work I have only called in sick once (couldn't keep anything down) and for family once (wife got hit head on). Some of the excuses I hear at work are pretty bad and makes me wonder how some people can even hold a job and make the bills.
