Update

Well, After talking it over with Jacob I decided that it would be best for me to quit my job. This was a hard decision because I do like my job and I like the people I work with. I talked it over with my manager and she understood. She was very nice about the entire thing. I ended up finishing out the weekend. Sunday was my last night. Well, I did go in and do the paperwork for them last night but only because they are pretty short handed. Two people got fired this week and me and another one quit. There's not many left who can do paperwork or have a key and the safe codes.

So Sunday night I really didn't do much. Lots of the regulars came in to say goodbye. One brought in a a bunch of strawberries that were very yummy.

On the plus side I've been busy busy busy with cakes. I'll get some pictures put on a little later.

Frustrated Again...

Again tonight someone comes in complaining to me. Like I done something wrong when it had NOTHING to do with me. This time it was someone different. Although the guy from the other night came in also. I guess he talked to my manager and told her that all I do is call the cops on everyone. The ONLY time I've called Jacob is when he came in harassing and threatening me and when we have had drive off on gas. We have to report drive offs. My manager was not mad at me and she took up for me with him. She even joked that she was going to hang a sign up in the store that read "If you have a complaint Amanda does not care" lol. Still I'm upset. I'm tired of leaving work upset. Especially when I do like my job. I'm so tired of being blamed for everything that's out of my hands. I try not to talk about Jacob's job at work and sometimes people get mad when I won't tell them things but I can't! Like I told my manager tonight I never expected to have this kind of problem when I started working there. Never in a million years would I have thought that people would be so mean and hateful to me at work. It's not fair that I would have to quit my job. To me it feel like then they are winning but I don't know what to do. I don't know how to fix this.

Police Report

Last night I had to fill out my first police report. While working I had a guy come in that had been in some trouble with Jacob the night before. He started yelling and cursing at me. It got to the point that another co-worker of mine had to throw him out of the store. This is the same man that has came into the store on a number of times threatening to "shoot people", his exact words, due to different reasons. Anyway due to some ugly battles Jacob had to do his best to stay out of the situation and luckily John Dugger came over and took my complaint. I'm filling harassment charges. The sad part is that once Jacob talked to the sheriff he was pretty much informed "too bad" I want these charges filed and if he comes in again I will have a restraining order put on him. I'm not kidding. I want to get this across to the sheriff and the prosecutor that I'm serious about this. I'm not doing this because of his involvement with Jacob. I'm doing this because of me. My safety and my co-workers. I was so mad. Now I understand why Jacob gets so upset when he works so hard to get the bad guy and his case is just thrown out like it's nothing. It's something... I will show them!

This isn't my first incident will irate people at the store. It's just my worst. I've had SEVERAL people come in mad at me because Jacob wrote them or a family member a ticket and be hateful and downright mean to me. I have nothing to do with who Jacob gives tickets to. I've even had several of the family members of the guy who threatened to kill Jacob come in. I love him being a cop. He's a good officer and people don't like that. I was so upset last night that I wanted to quit my job. I like my job but I can't handle people coming in and threatening me. It's not worth it.

What a week




Wow things have been busy. We have had a yard sale at moms last Thursday-Saturday. I've had 5 cakes to make. I've had to close at work each day. Yesterday and today we had a craft fair and I also had to work both days. This morning I also had Connor's preschool screening to go to. I've looked forward to tomorrow all week because I have NOTHING to do! I may sleep the entire day.

The Making of a garden

Monday night my father-in-law came over and dug my garden. Him and my mother-in-law came over today and finished it. I can't wait to start planting things. I'm really looking forward to having a garden. Hopefully I won't kill everything I plant. :)
