June 19, 2001 I was actually able to sleep in today…it's the first time in a really long time that I've been given this privilege. When I finally woke up, I watched some time…and I leisurely got ready for work. By 2:00pm I was ready, and so I just watched some tv. I left my house around 2:45pm so that I could head out to Woodfield. I wanted to shop a little before I went to work, and I gave myself about an hour to do so. There were a couple of shirts that I wanted to get from Banana Republic, and then I saw this really awesome fountain that was really cheap at Natural Wonders. I didn't end up getting the fountain, but I surely got my shirts from BR. In fact, I even wore the shirts to work. I had another cigarette, and I punched in to work. Kevin was the manager upstairs, and he said that he just tried to call me so that we could have lunch together on his break. Unfortunately….I was working downstairs at GAP. I walked downstairs with Cory and Kevin, and I saw that Stu was the manager on duty…I just wanted to cry. Stu is the biggest dork that ever came to GAP, and the fact that he's one of the assistant managers just makes me want to puke my guts out… I told him that I was there for the markdowns…and what did he do? He placed me to work in fitting rooms. I just thought to myself, if I wasn't going to do what I was asked to do at work today…at least he would have the judgment to place me in Body where I am supposed to work other wise. Stu is the only "manager," and I use the term loosely, that takes me out of the Body section. The other managers actually realize that Body is the place I am supposed to be utilized…not running clothes to the floor or cleaning the scent shelves, like Stu. The whole night was like this. Stu gave me projects like re-stickering the women and men's denim for their sizes. So, after I finished re-stickering the denim, I asked Stu if I could go on my break. He asked when I came in, and I told him that I came in at 4:00pm and I was working until 10:00. He told me that I was just going to work until 9:00pm now, and all I was going to get was a fifteen minute break. I took my fifteen minute break two hours before I asked to go on my dinner break and over four hours before I was not going to leave at 9:00. I just wanted to take Stu and…I don't know what I would have done to Stu had I been given the chance. He just erks me so much. Just looking at his face pains me… On a completely happy side not…my Starbucks boy came into work today. I was so delighted to see him. However, since I was working the fitting rooms like Stu had asked me to do…I wasn't able to talk to him… All I was able to do was look at him from a distance and nod my head to acknowledge that he was in the store. I really wish that I could have talked to him…and then asked him out. But, what would have been the chances that I would've had the balls?
